Great Case!

Fantastic case for the price! Very durable, beautiful, well designed. It's on the heavier side, but that's the tradeoff for great protection. Gorgeous blue color, well made. The folks at Great Violin Cases offer fantastic service, too!

This fit is good for my instrument

I did a fair bit of research and read a lot of reviews and forum posts before buying this case. I've seen it referred to as the "Honda Accord" of violin cases: safe, reliable, and affordable. Now that I have it, I completely agree with that assessment. The fit is good for my instrument, but just a little on the snug side now that I have added a silk violin bag to the mix. It is also a bit lighter than I was expecting, or perhaps all the yoga is starting to pay off. I would still love to have a Musafia case someday when I can afford it, but I'm very happy with the quality of this one right now.

Bobelock 1017 violin case

For the money, an outstanding case. Well-constructed for safety, velvet interior, cushy suspension, string tube, spring bow holders, and plenty of room in the three accessory boxes on the interior. One of the best exterior rain covers I have seen with ample room for a lot of music. A bit thin on the interior at the lower bouts of the instrument, and not much padding there -- but you won't find more unless you go up beyond the $600 range and above, and even then, is it variable. A far better value in craftsmanship and protection than more expensive cases, like the Negri Monaco, which I also have. At well over $300, the Negri is junk by comparison -- thin hard walls, thin felt interior (yes, felt!), very thin padding, practically zero suspension, no string tube, one accessory box with no proper hinge so that when you open it, it falls onto the scroll of your instrument if it is still in the case, and a cover that is paper thin and only water-resistant. The Boboleck is definitely a bargin and well-made -- I transferred my early 18th-century instrument from my 20-year-old jeager etui, which while still solid, has no suspension and compressed padding by now -- I feel completely confident in the ability of this case to protect my precious instrument.
