The Clarinet BBoard

Re: Double Clarinet Case

Author: AaronHB  Date:   2017-12-26 18:05 Attachment:  YamahaCSGdoublecase.jpg (1145k) The CSGs have a shorter barrel and longer top joint than most (if not all) other common clarinets, including many of their own other models. The CSGs' barrels are only 55mm top to bottom (just got a ruler out on mine), and there's only something like 15mm of bore inside, the rest is just sockets for the mouthpiece and top joint. I think the lower joint is also a slightly different length to the average clarinet. CSG A clarinets come in double cases specially designed for these funny lengths, so if you can afford to, I guess the best solution would be to contact Yamaha or your nearest dealer and see if you could buy a double case for them. For a number of years before I upgraded my buffet Bb to a Yamaha CSG to match my A, I managed to fit an R-13 sized clarinet into the CSG case, long barrel and all. Otherwise, I suppose you could take a small saw or a craft knife and extend the slot in your case so the CSG will fit properly. It's not a pretty solution, but there you go. Sorry there's no easy fix! Aaron Post Edited (2017-12-26 18:11)
