Hi all,

I'm currently shopping around for a bassoon case, and would like to ask you
guys if you have any recommendations. My preference is for a hard case tha
t is light, as I have chronic back pains, and really can't take a lot of we
ight from carrying the bassoon around. I need the case to have back pack an
d side straps as well, to facilitate carrying.

I currently use a Fox Artist Case, but the weight is really killing me. I w
as actually pretty interested in the BAM bassoon case until they told me th
at the case is made for French bassoons and would not fit my Schreiber S91.
:s

Do any of you have other recommendations?

Thank you in advance! :)

Esther
