Hi Lori,
I have a Leblanc triple that I purchased about 15 years ago now.
For general purposes, it is too big and too heavy. My shoulder, actually
my back, objects to the weight and it does not fit the airline luggage
requirements. There certainly would be some advantages carrying one case
if you are playing consistently concerts on all three, but I prefer to
just have my double-case and then carry the Eb in addition. I bought a
small canvas suitcase for a case cover and the Eb actually will fit inside
one of the outside pouches when I have had to do that.
