Re: Clarinet Case

I have a Protec slimline clarinet case I bought 3 years or so ago. I use it daily. The storage compartment is great, and allows me to put a LOT of stuff in there. However, it has one significant flaw, that you'll have to decide if/how much of an issue it is. Especially if you have ANYTHING in the storage compartment, when you open the case, especially on your lap, to assemble or swab and put away your horn, the case is VERY tippy in your lap. I've learned to deal by moving a stand close enough that it supports the open lid. It is ALWAYS an annoyance. Just a question of how much, and how much it would be to you.

I do like how much it carries, and the light weight, and I've spent the money, so I deal. If I had it to do over, I might spend a little more money on one of the larger Protecs.
