Subj: Re: [kl] Case Cleaning?

The discussion of case cleaning made me think of an interesting question. A
few years ago, I bought a 1969 R-13 A clarinet that came with a beautiful
double case. The case had always been kept in a case cover and in mint
condition externally. The problem is the interior. Both instruments rattle
around quite a bit. Does anyone make inserts for cases that are of a
quality comparable to the Wiseman inserts? I own a Wiseman case and have to
say that the interior is unbeatable. The Buffet double case would be a good
back up case once restored.

Thanks,
Josh Gardner
