While this is a gig bag and not the ultimate protection of a hard case, it has adequate padding around all three

not ideal.. padding has gaps around the bottom of the trumpet compartment - worrysome!

That brings me to the first major advantage of this gig bag: Although you trade off the protective qualities of a hard case, this gig bag is much lighter and still offers adequate padding to protect the horns from light to moderate bumping and bruising

It's sturdy and well padded, and is very comfortable to carry; very well-proportioned

I would never subject it to airline handling but as long as one handles the bag himself at all times, the abundant padding keeps the instruments safe

The bag is well padded
