Gard Bags have a reputation of providing quality protection at a reasonable price, and the Mid-Bag Suspension series builds upon this reputation. In ordinary bags, the baritone rests tightly against the bag's side. If dropped, the protruding parts are likely to be dented. Using strategically placed blocks of padding the Mid-Bag Suspension series "suspends" your baritone horn away from the sides. Further stabilizing the instrument is a dense foam cone mounted on a hard disc on the inside of the case. This suspension system reduces the risk of dings or dents if the bag knocks into a wall or is dropped from a short distance. Like all Gard Bags, the Mid-Bag Suspension series features a water resistant nylon or buffalo leather exterior, rugged zippers, soft interior flap to protect the instrument from the zipper, backpack straps, and shoulder strap. Fits baritones with up to a 9.5-inch bell.
