RARE MONETTE LEATHER DOUBLE CASE—MINT CONDITION—CUSTOMIZED—AMAZING!
The listing
Here is a RARE mint condition genuine Monette Leather Double Trumpet/Flumpet Case. Probably the best and most stylish case ever made for trumpets, custom-built by Monette's custom case-builder. This is being offered by a recording artist who has taken this on a couple tours, but it was meticulously cared for and never abused. This particular case was customized by the seller and it features reinforced leather strap loops, flexible (and feather-light) top and bottom (firm) panels over the foam to soften impacts and to allow you to place things on your case if need be—without having to worry about putting indentations into the recently replaced foam. AND it also has removable rubber feet underneath to prevent the leather from making contact on the ground or hard surfaces—and potential wearing through the leather (a big problem with stock Monette cases). The case comes with an extra thick Monette strap with a custom shoulder pad (not available through Monette)! And it also comes with a heavy duty custom thick leather name/travel/luggage tag with a double strap and brass buckle. The interior features purple English velvet and the best part is that the case look FLAWLESS (see photos). There are some token (barely visible) shallow scratch/scuff marks in the leather in a couple places around the case as well as one (less than dime-sized) mark on the bottom—which actually looks more like a naturally-occurring leather imperfection. But we can't see any places where the leather was worn-through or compromised at all. An EXTREMELY clean and minty case. Any variations in shading/color on the black leather panels is due to the fact that the case leather was JUST reconditioned and sealed. It was probably no fully dried/cured at the time of photos. There is some sight discoloration in the velvet—probably from some valve compounds on horn metal that interacted with the velvet over the years, but it's not even worth mentioning. We tried our best to capture it all in the photos. This is listed in other places so it could sell at any moment. We don't anticipate it'll last long. We prefer cash or Zelle. But we have a credit card server we can make available if you cover the fees. A portion of the proceeds from this sale will go to arts education charities. We're willing to ship as long as the buyer covers for shipping and insurance. We use FedEx and ship instruments all over the world. Thanks for looking. °•8•°•8•°•8•°•8•°•8•°•8•°•8•°•8•°•8•°•8•°•8•° . . . . . . . schagerl, monette, selmer, harrelson, taylor, kanstul, yamaha, conn, cecilio, mendini, merano, brass, bach, getzen, rosetti, Martin, brass, Holton, jazz, rock, bebop, Blues, fingers, brass, horns, flugelhorn, flugel, van laar, flip Oakes, wild thing, MG, Geelan, Twister, Couturier,
