CHTA-11
Weight: 5.5 lb.
Size: 15"-16.5" Violas
Material: Polycarbonate
Shapes
The name Neo, which means new, speaks to the innovative design and protection of this viola case. Now violists can get a protective and durable compact case that also has space for shoulder rest. This case is among the best violin cases for Molto.
Super Strong
Made of polycarbonate — a really strong type of plastic. It's also used to make bulletproof glass!
Lightweight
The case weighs 5.5 lb. Traditional wooden cases weigh almost twice as much — around 8–10 lb.
Unique Design
Featuring a wider design, so it can fit a shoulder rest — most shaped viola cases don't have enough space for one.
Over 10,000+ cases have been sold through greatviolincases.com. Trust us when we say:
Quality Assurance is Crucial
High quality assurance is one of the key benefits of Molto. Each case is carefully checked in Taiwan before being shipped to us in America.
We know musicians are excited to get their new cases. The last thing you’d want is to receive a brand new case that has to be returned for defects, damage or missing parts.
Functional & Secure
Adjustable Neck Cushion
The neck cushion is adjustable, so it can accommodate violas between 15 and 16.5 inches.
Suspension Paddings
Suspension padding gives the viola extra cushioning, so it won't knock against the inside of the case if you drop it.
Scratch & Water Resistant
Scratch-resistant
Water-resistant
Polycarbonate shells are more scratch-resistant than most hardshell viola cases.
The rubber seal around the case also makes it extremely water-resistant. If you ever felt like dancing in the rain with your viola case!
What Our Case Testers Are Saying
A wider fit for the shoulder rest
I really like the design of this case. It's slightly wider, which doesn't seem like much of a difference — but now I can slide my shoulder rest in without having to squeeze it against my viola pegs, like I had to do with my previous slim case.
Easy to adjust, feels very sturdy
Love my new case! It feels very sturdy. My viola is also slightly smaller than most full-size violas, so being able to adjust the neck cushion is important to me — I can make it more snug for my viola.
Lighter, with well-padded straps
This case is definitely a lot lighter than my old wooden case. The backpack straps are also really nice and well padded, which is important to me — my previous case was heavy enough that the straps would dig into my shoulders. I highly recommend this case.
Compliments on a shape they hadn't seen
I'm absolutely in love with my new case!! Been getting a lot of compliments — my teacher was even asking about it, since she hadn't seen one with a shape like this before. Thank you Great Violin Cases!
Good quality without breaking the budget
Good quality. Good service too. Good value too. My budget was $400, but the hard cases I found were either around $200 or $600 — not many options in the middle. I'm glad I found this one.
Love this case!
The padding adjusts easily to hold my viola and Bonmusica shoulder rest without being bulky or heavy. I love the colour!
A high-quality case that fits a 16″ viola
The case is high-quality and looks great too, and it came with a free instrument blanket and extra case straps. My 16-inch viola fits comfortably inside, with space for a Kun shoulder rest and my rosin. It's also lightweight — much lighter than my previous hard case.
A++ customer service
My daughter has a hard-to-fit viola, and Great Violin Cases went above and beyond to help us find the perfect case.
Love it!
A very sturdy case that fits my son's viola perfectly, in a beautiful dark blue he really likes. His shoulder rest fits nicely with a velcro strap so it doesn't hit his pegs, and the neck of the viola is secured too. There's also a pouch for small things like a mute and rosin.
Amazing case!
This case is perfect for everything I needed — such a great upgrade from my previous, heavier case, and at a great price too.
Protect Your Beloved Viola With Molto
A Wider Design

You don't have to worry about squeezing or stuffing a shoulder rest right next to the neck and pegs of your viola.

Case is high-quality and looks great too. Received free violin blanket and additional case straps with my purchase. The case itself also comes with plain black instrument blanket and a set of black straps, which was a nice surprise. My 16” viola fits comfortably inside the case, with space for a Kuhn shoulder rest and my Gustave Bernardel rosin. Case is lightweight—Much lighter than my previous hard case from a different company.

A very sturdy case that fits my son’s viola perfectly. A beautiful dark blue that he really likes! His shoulder rest fits nicely with a Velcro strap so it doesn’t hit his pegs and the neck of the viola is secured as well. There is also a pouch to hold little things like a mute and rosin. It also came with a top dust cover. Was hoping to fit one more now but I guess two is enough.
