Best Jakob Winter JW 51025 VBNB Viola Case Alternatives

Based on 1 reviews

This case has all the features you need- it’s super light, has adjustable straps and user-friendly locks. There are two other really good features that distinguish it from other cases: firstly the internal length can be varied with the use of a removable cushion, and secondly the case has rubber stoppers in place to prevent it rolling onto its back. The funky design on the case makes it easy to find in a sea of cases!

This case is probably the lightest case you will find, and it is incredibly stylish. For these two reasons, I complete love it! However there are some drawbacks which you may find severe. Firstly, I don't trust this case to protect my instrument as well as others I have had. Though you shouldn't put anything on top of any case, that applies doubly so here as the shell isn't rock solid like normal wood or fibreglass cases. While it doesn't flex very much at all when closed, I doubt it has a lot of compression strength. This is the price of being lighter. Violists not having a standard shape, you may have some fitting issues. The corners of the lower bout on my instrument press against the foam insulation, which means it is vulnerable to impact from the sides. This is pretty worrying,...

I ordered this case with confidence because I was satisfied with my Oblong Jakob Winter case. The build quality of this one is not comparable to older models of Jakob Winter Viola cases. Yes, it is very light which I really like but the quality of the ABS material is cheap. This is not a German quality....average Chinese quality for sure!
