Clarinet Case

Author: FlyingFish

I recently turned in my wooden rental clarinet for a Buffet E12, and I love it, but I have some issue with the case, meaning I won't be able to use it for school. Unfortunately, my rental case went with my clarinet so at the moment, I have the new case (unusable), an A clarinet case, and a cheaper one for my plastic clarinet for marching band. My Bb fits in the A case unexpectedly well, but my A clarinet has nowhere to go if I put it in there. Right now, my only choice really, is to use the cheap case until I get a new one, but are there any severe consequences of doing that? Like, will problems come up with my clarinet if I carry it around in a low quality case for some time? As far as I'm concerned, none of the parts move/shake around, it fits pretty well. Even so, will there be issues? Like, with ventilation or humidity?

Nope. No problems. It may be a snug fit, but if it's too snug, the case is probably just foam and some pressure and hitting the case's divots with a blunt object can make the cavity a little bigger or wider if you need to.

For what it's worth, I don't know what's wrong with the new case that you can't bring it to school, but it'll probably fit in a laptop bag. And the laptop bag should hold whatever you need if it's an accessory storage issue.
