Topic: A Solution For Bb/Eb Case
I recently talked to Fred Jacobowitz in Raleigh, NC, who has a business called Case-Closed that specializes in musical instrument case repairs, new case builds, and case customizing. I informed him that I wanted to have him convert a brand new Pro-Tec double clarinet case that was originally designed for Bb/A clarinets and have him convert it to a Bb/Eb case. He did a fantastic job of just removing the A clarinet slots and used two new pieces of Styrofoam to custom carve the slots for my Eb clarinet, including the specifications that I sent him to include spaces for a Morrie Backun Eb barrel and the Clark Fobes Eb extension. He was extremely reasonable in pricing it, was very thorough in communicating with me, and provided a quick turn around!
If interested, you can contact Fred at: www.case-closed.us
I have included a photo of his work on my case and I am a very satisfied customer!
