Subj: Wiseman cases

I was wondering if anybody on the list owns or has any experience/information
on the multiple combination clarinet cases constructed in England by Howard
Wiseman.

My questions are:

1) Are they convenient -- room for all necessary supplies, extra barrels and
mouthpieces, reed cases, etc...or does one need a case cover to store gear?

2) Do they protect the instruments sufficiently? Are they secure?

3) Is there room for music storage (and the like)?

4) Does anyone in the US handle these...or are they only available through
Wiseman?

5) How much?

6) Thumbs up? Thumbs down?

Thanks in advance!
