See live pricesOverview
The BAM Weekender Case for Double Clarinet is a specialised protective accessory designed to house the BAM Double Clarinet Hightech hardshell model. Recognised by its 'BAM DNA' styling, this black cover serves as an additional layer of security and convenience for musicians who frequently travel or commute to sessions. It integrates high-end materials with functional hardware to transform the base hardshell case into a more versatile carrying solution.
Design and Ergonomics
Ergonomics are a primary focus of the Weekender design. The case includes multiple transport configurations to suit different environments:
- Backpack Straps: Two removable straps allow for hands-free transport, ideal for long commutes or navigating public transport.
- Shoulder Strap: A single detachable strap offers a traditional over-the-shoulder carry option.
- Leather Handle: A durable double handle made of leather provides a comfortable grip for hand-carrying.
The exterior features a sophisticated black finish that aligns with the brand's 'sonic stylist' aesthetic, ensuring a professional appearance in orchestral or studio settings.
Protection and Security
While the internal Hightech case provides the primary impact resistance for the clarinets, the Weekender provides an essential secondary layer. This 'over-case' adds security during international travel and helps protect the finish of the hardshell case from scratches and environmental exposure. It is engineered to ensure that life on-the-go is hassle-free by keeping the instrument secure within a snug, reliable fit.
User Suitability
This product is primarily intended for professional clarinetists and advanced students who own the BAM Double Clarinet Hightech case. It is particularly suited for those who require more carry options than a standard hardshell case provides, such as those travelling abroad regularly or attending multiple session slots in different locations.
Comparison to Alternatives
Unlike standard instrument bags like the Gear4Music Rock Fusion set or general-purpose covers, the BAM Weekender is a precision-fit accessory for a specific hardshell model. While other BAM products, such as the New Trekking or L'Etoile series, offer integrated protection, the Weekender allows users of the Hightech series to modularise their setup, adding or removing the outer layer as travel requirements change.
