St. Petersburg Tuba cases are available at the Tuba Exchange, but they aren't cheap.
Soft "gig bags" are also an option unless you really do want a hard case.
***I'm not sure if they are made to specifically fit the St. Pete***
I think hard cases are about $600.00+ now
Soft Bags about $300.00+ or so?!?!?!
Check tubaexchange.com
to verify prices.
Also, IF I got a St. Petersburg tuba, I would get it from Tuba Exchange because it appears that my only other choice is "Die Tuba" im Germany..., and I don't want to buy from overseas.
Is a St. Petersburg practical for continued use during the end of High School and all through college?
