Received this item and some of the design issues seem to have been resolved overall. the straps that used to be connected and sometime seem to wear out more quickly around the stitching area are no longer there, loops have been placed and you will have to order the backpack straps separately which Protec sells and, I think, is a plus because there are many times I don't want the straps taking up space in the back pocket or hanging when they are not needed. an extra mouthpiece slot has been added within the case so you can now carry two mouthpieces and an extra long strap has been added to keep the bell from moving around after you remove the cover between the horn and the bell area also for extra security, however I would have preferred a softer material on that strap because of the coarseness of the strap possibly causing minor scratching on the bell but that can easily be resolved with a handkerchief or other soft material wrapped around the strap. The front outside pocket also seems to have been slightly expanded and allowed the ability to extend out a little more. The case comes with an over the shoulder type strap for extra carrying options. The main compartment zipper also allows for a small lock to be inserted for extra security which I thought was the perfect touch. The overall quality of this item makes it very difficult to consider given the price it currently is at. I think the only negative aspect of the case is that is it a little too roomy for the main body of the French horn and I would like to see a little less space for the horn to move around in but, also again, can be remedied with a couple of soft pads placed around the horn for an extra snug fit.

This is the second ProTec screw bell horn case that I am purchasing. For the money it's a great buy. It's nice that it has a back pocket large enough for an orchestra folder. Could use one smaller accessory pocket, and also another slot for a second mouthpiece. I am buying a second one because the straps gave out on the first one. The plastic adjustment brackets on the straps will give way eventually - so be careful.
