Gig Bag for Eastman 853

Post by BlueRidgeTeacher »

I'm looking for a gig bag for my Eastman 853. My price range is around $350. Can't afford a Cronkhite bag.

- I've read that the Mirophone EEb/F bag will fit a Besson 983, which the Eastman 853 is loosely based on.

- There's a Gard bag for a smaller tuba but sites say it's for bells up to 16". My 853 has a 17" bell. Any experience with these?

- My horn is also very comparable to the Yamaha 822 F. I had one years ago and used an older-style Gard gig bag that was side-loading. I'd love to find one of those.

Thanks for any insight anyone can give!

Will

The Miraphone bag for the 1291 was a perfect fit for my 983.
