 Re: how/where did you acquire your first clarinet

Tim P-- Yes, I do love that roomy, sturdy old Conn case! Ugly as sin, with the "gas chamber green" lining, but it held all the doodads and music with room to spare. You mentioned keys--thank you, although I can't imagine needing any because I never play that clarinet any more. I already did have one replaced, back in about 1961 or 1962. Those cast keys are fragile. In high school, I tended to clamp down hard when I was nervous, and--snap! A scandalous old codger named Cy, in the Marinated County of California, hand-forged me a replacement on his workbench liberally decorated with Playboy centerfolds. He kept a little topless, grass-skirted hula bobble-dancer doll standing on his bench. She shimmied while he worked. Excellent replacement key--never had a bit of trouble with it and the experience taught me to unlearn that destructive death-grip.

No way can Shadow Cat have that crappy old clarinet!
