 New cases for 1-pc soprano clarinets?
Author: SteveG_CT

Does anyone know if there are currently any cases being manufactured for 1-pc soprano clarinets? I have a nice metal clarinet whose case is falling apart and also have a nice 3-pc full boehm Bb for which I have no case. After checking online and with a few music shops I haven't been able to find anything.

Thanks,
Steve

There are some auctions on The Site That Must Not Be Mentioned which might or might not fit your instrument. Private message sent. (no affiliation whatsoever)

A soprano sax case or gig bag should fit, possibly with minor alterations.

For a luxury case, Rossi sells one for $250. Go to http://www.rossiclarinet.com/ under Accessories.

I see quite a few new, and vintage, on "the online auction site", usually the new cases (of nylon cordura) go for about $50, the older vintage ones go for $20 -$30. I've actually bought several nice metal clarinets, with case, for the same price!, but vintage cases almost always need some work done, ie. glue, cloth, black paint, etc.

New 1-pc cases look like they'll include the mouthpiece also, although I'm not sure. Vintage cases sometimes let you leave the neck attached, but usually not.

Thanks for the tips. I'll check out the ones listed on the auction site and I'll take a look at some soprano sax cases as well.
