This Shires Marco Magi bass trombone case is the screw bell / detachable bell version, designed for professional Shires bass trombones with removable flares. Built by Marco Magi in Italy, these cases are known for combining high durability with elegant design, making them one of the most desirable storage and travel solutions for serious players.
The exterior features a dark brown finish over a rigid plywood body, offering excellent protection while maintaining a professional appearance. Inside, the case is tailored to fit all S.E. Shires bass trombone screw bell models and valve sections. Whether you call it a detachable bell case or a removable flare case, the design provides secure storage for both bell and slide, with proper compartment padding.
This case is pre-owned but in excellent functional condition. The only modification is in the slide compartment: the previous owner trimmed away a small section to accommodate an unusually long slide. For standard-length Shires bass trombone handslides, the fit remains correct and secure. This alteration is cosmetic and reflected in the reduced price, since these cases typically retail new in the $500–600 range.
Accessories included: original shoulder strap and locking key.
Marco Magi cases are highly respected for their protective build quality and long-term reliability. With Shires no longer offering this branded version, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a premium screw bell trombone case at an accessible cost.
Question 🎵: Does this case fit all Shires bass trombones with detachable bells?
Yes. The case will securely fit any Shires bass trombone screw bell model with a standard-length slide. Only unusually long slides would require special accommodations.
