Protec PB-319 Bass Clarinet Case

This case goes with me walking into town and back a few times a week, which is a ~4km round trip, and often in the rain. On the advise of a friend who did the same, I removed the inside formed bass clarinet sections so it can accommodate my uilleann pipes.

It?s solid, well made throughout, and looks good. The zippers are robust, it balances standing upright, the outer nylon covering is durable and water proof (even the inside of the outer pocket remains dry).

This case suits my needs, it?s big enough, sturdy, water proof, and with the additional backpack straps it?s perfect for traveling or carrying long distances. The plywood construction underneath might not completely stop a major impact, but I think it?s a great compromise of strength versus portability.

Over the past couple of months it?s held up well, while carrying more weight with less internal support than it?s originally designed for. If you need a bass clarinet case this will be great. If you need a bagpipe case and aren?t afraid to modify it on arrival, it will be great too!
