Just from memory, in my old bari case:

-One of those SaxPak things Joel was talking about, which holds my 'playing' reed, my rovner lig and cap, and my link, along of course with my neck.
-A neckstrap and Harness
-Random pieces of cloth for cleaning.
-Swab that I should use more.
-RJS 2.5's and 3.5's, I think they have around 4 left in each.
-My stock lig (from the Link)
-Neck cleaner dealy.
-Coupla beer bottle caps from various gigs (can't remember exactly which)

Etc.

After I finish the new case, I might have room for a bari stand and *maybe* a foldable music stand.

What kind of a stand do you have? I'm thinking of getting an LA Sax stand. Very Happy

Bingo, the LA Sax. It works ok for me, but is made for Low A's, so I think you'll be pleased. On a low Bb, you have to angle the legs steeply to get the bow of the sax to touch the rest, so it is slightly unstable, but like I said, a Yami will have no problem. Very beefy and strong.

I normally play a Yamaha YBS-52 that our school owns. In that case, I have my sax, neckpiece, mouthpiece, reed case w/ three reeds (Rico 3 1/2, La Voz 3 1/2, Hemke 4), my music lyre, and my flip folder with music. During marching season, it holds my marching charts and paper folder (when music is first handed out). It also sometimes holds sheet music copies (district try out pieces). But it's being cleaned right now, so I don't have it.

What I am playing right now is an old Conn that only goes down to low Bb. It has that, neck, 2 mouthpieces (I stuck my normal one in there before my sax went to get cleaned), three neckstraps (my normal one and two extras that were already in there), a tube of cork grease (smells good), two boxes of La Voz reeds, cleaning cloth, saxophone swab, and probably some other stuff. I'm scared to dig through it in case something is alive in there.

...good one Jules

I agree with Thomas...be more prepared man. I might even wanna consider getting a synthetic reed of right size (and sound) for when my cane reed breaks 10 seconds before my solo! Shocked
