    If ever a bag deserved "mint condition"...this one does. I don't see the pebble option on the current site; I wonder if they dropped it. In any case, that type of finish usually hides scratches and scuffs better. My own bag, in plain black, shows a bit of scuffing even though I have been very careful with it. Good luck with the sale!

    Congratulations to both parties. I was a wee bit late to the party. Being largely dissatisfied with the Altieri bag I bought, I ordered a Cronkhite bag about 3 days ago. I could've saved some $$, but I'm OK with the way things turned out. I already have a Cronkhite bag for my Kanstul 33T tuba, so I am already familiar with its construction, but I wanted a bag for my euph that offered more protection and more comfortable carrying. The Altieri didn't do it for me.

    I cannot rave enough about the Cronkhite I use with my 5050.

    Hello Tonewheeler, what features of the Cronkhite bag do you prefer over the original Miraphone case of your M5050?
