Violin Cases

What Are The Qualities Of A Great Violin Case?

Lightweight - so that it's easy on your shoulders. Nobody


1. wants back problems in the future!

Protective - great protection is a must. And often determined


2. by the brand that puts in the time & effort to make the case
as protective as they can.

Durable - a case is only as good as it's zippers. Find a case


3. that you don't need to replace simply cause the zippers broke.

Functional - every violinist is different. And so are their needs.


4. Find a case with the functions you need.

Stylish - not a must. But neither is good-looking clothes nor


5. deliciously prepared meals. Find a case that you'll love &
that'll make your friends jealous.

What Makes A Case Functional?


- Spacious Accessory Pocket
One that can fit your shoulder rest,
rosing, strings, cleaning supplies, etc.

- Sheet Music Pouches


Some cases have full-zippered pouches on top of the
case for sheet music. Some of the more modern cases
have smaller sheet music pouches on the backside.

- Combination locks or key locks


Some cases feature number locks instead of key locks. This
is good for musicians who want to lock up their cases and
not have to worry about forgetting their keys.

- Hygrometers
You’ll generally find these with more traditional wooden
cases. If the case doesn’t have a hygrometer, no worries.
Digital hygrometers are fairly easy to find.

- Zippers or clasps
You’ll generally find zippers on traditional wooden cases,
and clasps on more modern cases.

- Removable accessory pouches


The pouch is usually secured to the case by velcro.
Which means you can take the whole pouch out of
your case and bring it with you to your music stand.

Top Reasons Violinists Need A New Case

1. For Travel!
Traveling musicians need a case that’ll meet airline
regulations, and able to withstand the harsh temperature
changes that can happen during travels.

2. Light & Easy On The Shoulders


Violin cases can get pretty heavy. And over time, they can
really start weighing down on the shoulders. This can put a lot
of stress on the body, causing issues with posture over time.

3. It's a Gift!
A case is a great gift because it’s something that violinists will
definitely love. It’s personal, it’s something that can be used
everyday, and it’s usually a luxury that student violinists won’t
think of getting for themselves.

4. Old Case Is Falling Apart


And last but not least, sometimes a violinist needs a new case
because their old one is simply falling apart.

For these violinists, we generally recommend thinking of


everything that was wrong with the old case, and what you
would want different in your new case.
