Subj: [kl] Case covers for Leblanc Double Cases?
Date: Sat, 7 Feb 2004 04:40:41 -0500

Try Altieri of Denver, http://www.altieribags.com. They make good stuff,
customised for your case size.

However, I have the standard Leblanc double leather case for my Concertos,
and I find it very good - strong, and with enough room for music and a few
bits and bobs.

Nice to see another vote for Leblanc!
