Re: Clarinet case specs

Some clarifications.

>> Your best bet is a Yamaha single case (for the YCL-650) or Pro Tec micro case and using it in conjunction with a back-pack. <<

I already have a small case I can do that with. This case+cover approach is exactly what I'm trying to avoid with the new case, and why I bought the Protec Max in the first place.

>> OP said big enough for unfolded A4 sheet music. I’ve personally never seen a single soprano clarinet case that big. Sounds impossible to me. At least one requirement will have to be dropped. <<

>> The OP said he wanted one huge case. <<

No, I'm not looking for one "huge" case, but a case that has the features I mentioned.
Both the Protec Max and the Bam Trekking are big enough for that. I wouldn't call either them huge, but the Protec in particular isn't even that big. I bought it because it's lighter but it has all the issues mentioned. The Bam is a bit heavy and a little thicker than it has to be, so I'm wondering if there are alternatives. If not I might get the Bam after all.

>> The Protex Pro Pac is definitely bigger than the Max. <<

Thanks, but looking at photos it seems that it would have most if not all of the issues I have with the Max case. Except maybe being more comfortable to carry, which isn't something I can find out without trying it, and not enough of an improvement.
