Bam St. Germain Oblong Violin Case

Bought this because it was relatively light for an oblong case, and because of the spacious and open zones on both sides, top and bottom, relative to the violin. Note there is no latch, so you have to use the zippers every time to close and open, but I'm getting used to that. At first, the lid seems like it won't stay open, but after a couple weeks use and some stretching of the band at the left, it stays open fine. My full size violin fits perfectly, and I love the fact that all the padding around the edges has some give to it, like a firm foam, and the middle of the back does not touch the case. After one month's use to and from rehearsal, it seems quite well made. In combo with a digital hygrometer and a Boveda sleeve, (bought separately) the case maintains a reliable 45-55% relative humidity in Northern CA. Removable pouch is a bonus

This is the third Bam case I’ve bought. I prefer the travel case for traveling (duh) as they are lighter and fit overhead compartments in planes. But I like this case for storage in my home. They are robust and heavy and give me confidence that my violins are well-protected. They are heavy, so harder to travel with, hence the Bam travel case I use for that purpose.

We've tried two different cases before deciding on this case. It is a well built, quality case. My violin fits a bit tight in it but it's an older violin and may not be standard size. I wish it had a latch to lock. Other than that it's a great case.

I love the case!! It’s a great case with a really nice interior. The bottom zipper pocket is amazing for music. There’s enough storage to fit my shoulder rest in the inside pocket. The outside color of the case is darker than the picture, but it’s better because it won’t get as dirty as it would get with a lighter shade. Overall, just a great case!

This is hands down the best violin case I’ve ever had. Not only is it stylish the interior provides the best protection for my violin. Would definitely recommend this to any violinist looking for a stylish case with equal protection.
