I was wondering if anyone knows where you might be able to purchase a small french style case similar to the cases the Yamaha Custom clarinets come in. I really like those cases, and I love the size. Or if anyone knows of any other maker that makes small french style cases? Thanks!

Just a point, most of the French style cases that I have seen require storing the bottom section with the bell attached. I just don't like to do that and leave all of that moisture trapped in the joint socket. And to disassemble the bell, swab the socket and then reasseemble--while not very time consuming--seems somewhat pointless. Size-wise, they are great.
BTW--ave you investigated the Yamaha soft-side double clarinet cases? They are small, extremely lightweight and ofter reasonalbe storage room for music and small accessories. And the bells are stored separately!!

Sounds like you are describing the Buffet Pochette case--available in single and double sizes. My single case has a separate parking place for the bell. No room for an extra barrel, though. Google search shows WWBW has both sizes.

William:
The Yamaha pochette stores each piece separately. A very nice case with no room for anything other than the clarinet/mpc.
MOO,

I like the terminology for a small Yamaha case.....wonder what the Japanese word for pochette is! If you're describing the small case that the model 20 came with...I agree it's small....and very usable.
