Re: bass clarinet case recommendation

Soem more info about the Wiseman that was mentioned. I have one for a Buffet low C bass and I like it much more than the original. At least with this clarinet, there is no "immobilization" problem unlike described above with a different model. Mine is similar to the current model so it could be different with an older Buffet.

It's great to not have to take another case just for a soprano clarinet. It's a little smaller than the regular case but "feels" a lot smaller. Just looking at it, it doesn't seem to be waterproof, but I walked in regular rain with it for a while and water didn't get inside. I'd say it's water resistant. It's pretty protective, I can sit on it and it's fine.

It doesn't have wheels though. Other things some people don't like about it are the noise from the velcro and the round shape. They have a carbon fiber model for about half the weight and double the cost.

I'm wondering if they have imitation leather or some other material. The regular Wiseman is made of leather and I wouldn't buy something like that now.
