 Universal Clarinet Case...Opinions?

I like the look of this case and it seems smaller than what I have now. How is the quality? Do they look cheap or are they quality cases?

Is there any place I could find actual pics of it or does anyone by chance have a pic of it? It's hard to tell from the stock pic and I haven't seen pics of the inside at all aside from the modified case.

Also, are the edges silver like here? I don't overly care for that style so I'm curious.

(Yes, I have searched posts and saw the previous thread on this case however it did not completely give an answer to what I'm looking for.)

I was able to find a photograph of the outside of the case only, at the USABand Web site.

I have photographs of what appears to be a similar case, which I have purchased but not yet received, from Wichita Band.

I can e-mail these to you, off-line, if you like.

Yes, I'd love to see any pics you have! What cases do they have at WichitaBand.com? I looked on the web site but it didn't really mention anything about cases that I saw.

The Wichita Band home page has no photos of cases, per se, unless they happen to be displayed with a clarinet for sale. Apparently, these cases are referred to in the text, here and there, as "flat cases" manufactured by a company called MTG---for which I can find no reference on the Web.

The photos--which you should have shortly--were sent to me by a salesman at Wichita. The exterior closely resembles that of the Universal case.

I've had a Gator case for 2-3 years. It is compact, wears well and has outside pockets for reeds, swabs and other "stuff." I'd say the ProTec cases are more elegant and someday I'll get one.
