Have a look at the the article below. I don't know however how big an instrument is allowed.

Well, it's a start towards airlines being prevented from acting like total dicks in response to anything that isn't bag shaped.

The article is ambiguous as to whether this is about instruments in the cabin or the hold:

I wonder what they would say if you wanted to carry this on.
