Re: Budget clarinet case

I like the Allora case.

I bought a couple to sell with horns, and was happy. I feel comfortable giving it to students. It won’t last forever, but it looks like it will hold up for 2-3 years of school, longer for an adult. They don’t feel cheap or flimsy, and they seem well sewn. It will protect the horn under reasonable circumstances. The thing I *don’t* like is that they have a big secondary velcro closure over the zipper. There would be a huge temptation to use it instead of the zipper, and that’s a disaster waiting to happen. It’s fine if they close the zipper.

Sometimes people sell lots (groups) of Bundy and other student hard cases on that site which shall not be mentioned at good prices - even if some in the mix are no good. Otherwise, new hard cases are usually $$$$, and used ones go for too much - IMO. If you don’t have to make anything by selling horns it’s more affordable.
