Greetings Mr Kissinger...
There was already a luky buyer of both of my cases already from
this list whom shall remain nameless unless he or she would like to
tell everyone :). I'd be glad to answer your questions anyway...but
quickly and briefly cuz i'm tired from packing and need REST! We
musicians don't find that a lot these days ;)

to be quite honest, it does not have a brand name. i think it's one
of those "generic" ones i guess you'd say. it's a leather covered
wood shell with metal corners for protection, 2 combination locks
"embedded" in the case and it has a storage area inside for music and
space for reeds etc. The clarinets are stored completely
dissassembled so you don't have to worry about keeping the joints
partly together... what it's worth? well, it did cost over $100 when
we got it a couple years ago.

finally...i guess...it comes with a handle too ;)

I would be interested in the briefcase style case. Could you give me a
little more detailed description, e.g., make (is it a stock case
forone of
the major makers?), are the instruments stored completely disassembledor
with the bell and or barrel attached to the joint, etc. Thanks.Best
regards,
Jack
