Subj: Re: Double Case and Cover??

Hi, Krista,

I have the large Buffet double case, and I really like it, although it
can get a bit heavy. It has room for accessories in the middle, plus
extra mouthpiece and barrel spaces, and a flap in the lid for (some)
music (a reed case fits nicely in there too!)

They are not particularly cheap -- a good source is International Musical
Suppliers in Chicago -- they offer good prices on such things. I also
have a Cavallaro (?) cover with the fake lambswool stuff inside. If you
know which case you're getting, then you know which size cover to order.
Again, not super-cheap, but well worth the money. It's much more durable
than , say, a vinyl cover.
