After 20 years of service my Walt Johnson tenor case finally gave up the ghost having been dropped by an Uber driver in a hurry at Miami International. Thankfully Uber is giving my full replacement value for the case and the horn damage. It seems like the BAM cases get very high marks from SOTW folks.

Before I order a new case, can someone tell me if there is any difference between the BAM Cabine and BAM La Defense? I see these terms used interchangeably on loads of websites, sometimes with a 40$ price difference, for what appears to be the same case.

Also, if you've used a BAM with a Yamaha 82 Z, or have a dealer you like, let me know too...

1000 thanks for your advice! Best, Max

Max,

If you go to the BAM web site, you can email them a question and they will reply. When I needed a new latch for a case, I emailed them and received a reply from their rep here in the US. I think her name is Carol Boutry (could be wrong about the spelling of the last name). She should be able to give you the specifics.
