I could take out my "A" clarinet and compare it to my "Bb" if it helps but I'm not sure that the lengths I'll report are uniform across all/most instruments.

Why do you ask? For example, some people want such answers from a "would it fit in this clarinet case" frame of reference....

....a question often addressed with Kaizen Foam

The reason I asked is that I have a Buffet single clarinet attache case that is a little to big for a Bb and do not have an A clarinet to check so I thought that a measurement might tell me the result.
