What is the best kind of case for an Alto Sax?
I own a Yamaha Alto Sax and have a brown, rectangular case. It is on the verge of breaking, so I am in need of a new one.
What is the best style?
Another hard rectangular one?
A hard sax-shaped one?
Or a softer sax shaped one?
I find the hard sax-shaped one awkward to carry, but I was just wondering what is the strongest and most durable case?
I LOVE ALTO SAXES!! 'nuff said =D
I've played Alto since the 5th grade, and I'm now a college freshman. I marched my alto for a year in high school marching band (the other 3 years were flute). but my case took a crap ton of abuse during marching season. I need to get a new one. This case was the one that came with my sax when I first got it over 7 years ago.
Go to Woodwind Brasswind's website. it's http://www.wwbw.com
Do NOT settle for a $20 case. The good ones can range up to $200. Yes... and even $400. If you find the sax shaped one awkward, find one that is rectangular but durable. wwbw.com has cases that are the same as any in the music stores, but lots cheaper! I got my new mouthpiece for $20 less on the site than at my local store. I know there is a warehouse in South Bend, IN I don't know of any others.
The one I'm thinking of getting is a back-packable one (because I'm in college and I need to carry it around from practice to the dorms). It should have a hard outer shell. But there are ones now that have cloth coverings over the hard cover, I know kids in my band class that complain because the cloth rips and then they need a new case.
