Title: Jupiter JCL 631 ii with a backpack case
Post by: DypfrystBram on June 09, 2022, 10:35:48 AM

Hi, community.
I am wondering if this case is authentic or not?
I only managed to find cases that open the other direction.
It has a zip and back straps.

I have no recollection of where I found it but I am wondering if someone elaborate on any info that might be different if it is out of the ordinary.
I am good at reverse searching items to identify them but this has be stumped.

Thanks for the time.

Don't see a problem with it. Jupiter clarinets aren't really commonly faked.

Thanks. With all the searching I did to try and find another bag similar to it, I assume it might be a rare design? I might put it up for auction and see if there is interest.

The image is so huge I can barely see it. I certainly don't see a case

Well, you do see the inside of the case, eh?  :P

Sorry - more pics of the case. I can't find any similar one on the net

Neat! I don't think its terribly special, but pretty cool. Sometimes backpack cases were exclusive to certain retailers. The Buffet International was a C13 that was sold exclusively in retail stores, and not online, and came with a cool case that you couldn't find elsewhere.
Could be a similar situation.

Interesting. Good to know. I'll spruce it up and look into offers I can get in the market. Unless I can be the first to make clarinet fit into a death metal band, I think it deserves to be in a non abusive relationship.

Thanks everyone who replied.
