Good build & adequate protection. Nice case.
18 out of 21 found the following review helpful

Pros: Quality construction (sturdy clasps, hinges, straps) Attractive (carbon fiber effect) & quirky looks. Comfortable to carry (both handles and "rucksack" straps) Good size 'accessory' section (easily holds shoulder rest [tried Kun & Wolf], strings, rosin, practice mute, pencil and money, with room to spare) Music pouch with divider.

Cons: Tight fit for bows... they only just fit in. Upper and Lower bouts could do with some lateral cushioning (for side-to-side support). Head to toe, front-back and neck support is adequate but body of instrument can move side to side if bumped and the fleece lining isn't exactly "padded" - I'll make some small cushions to add.

Other: Overall this is a really nice case and fulfills the purpose I bought it for - 'lightweight' (lighter than my old oblong case), easy/comfortable rucksack carrying with music pocket.

Funky case, comfortable to carry, looks great.
1 out of 1 found the following review helpful

Pros: Looks great, all the compartments are well sized and work well (shoulder rest space fits my Korfker rest fine, enough room for bits and pieces in the Velcro pouch), and the music case on the back is just right, and doubles as a comfortable back pad when carrying.

Cons: Needs more padding inside - my violin rattled around a bit, so I stuck some extra foam pads on the inside and now it’s nice and snug. The case stays open on its own, but only just - would be good if the hinges allowed it to open a little more fully.

Other: Good value, nice looking case.

Nice case but it isn't big enough for a full size.
1 out of 1 found the following review helpful

Pros: The case is stylish, very light and has a good backpack feature.

Cons: The case did not fit either of my full size violins and it was a stretch for the bow.

Other: This case is better suited for a 3/4 or a small full size violin.

sturdy practical violin case

Pros: Quirky violin case. Absolutely super fit for my second violin - a 5 string Tim Phillips fiddle. Strong and secure and e trembly lightweight. I like that a shoulder rest can be anchored into a designated space. Easy to carry as a backpack if required. Very good value for the price. Would highly recommend.

Cons: Would have liked a little more padding inside although this really is a minor detail.

Great style but not the case for me!
2 out of 4 found the following review helpful

Pros: Stylish, sturdy, lightweight.

Cons: The bow fit is extremely snug, so much so that I wasn’t happy to risk using it with my bow. There is space for two bows, but in order for one to fit it has to be placed diagonally, so only suitable for one, really. My son is using the case instead - he’s delighted with it!
