Properties of a good violin case

In the market you can find a large number and varieties of violin cases, but there are some basic properties that every case should have. It can be said that there are different materials that can compose a case: there are plastic, ABS, fabric, carbon fiber, natural compounds... And each material has its characteristics and supplies better or worse certain aspects, so you have to take in account this fact when buying a case for violin.

First, a good violin case should absorb the blows. We said that the violin is a very delicate instrument, and the violinists always carry it along the day, so it is probable that at some point it may receive a blow. A good case should eliminate these external impacts and protect the violin well so that it does not suffer any damage or tune.

A good case should also protect the violin from changes in temperature and humidity. These environmental factors can cause the wood to be damaged and also that the instrument is easily tune up. It goes without saying that it should also be waterproof, characteristic that prevents water from entering the zippers or the closure so that the wood of the violin does not get wet.

Inside the case, it is advisable to include a delicate cloth that is placed on the instrument to protect it from the bow (which when closing the case is on top of the violin) and the dust from the rosin. Also, even more complete than the cloth, you can use a silk pajamas that protects the entire violin.

There are also bow cases, in case the violinist carries more bows than the case supports, or in case you simply want to carry out the bows without the violin.

How much may I pay for a violin case?

Depending on the material in which it is built and also the characteristics and interior elements, you can find violin cases from about 40 euros to about 1,000.

If you want to buy a violin case for small children, it will surely be a case of cloth exterior and light, and will cost between 40 and 80 euros. For children with violins from ¾, they usually rise to about 200, as they begin to be more resistant and made of more elaborated materials. If you are looking for a 4/4 violin case or a professional violin, you can find them from 100 euros to 1,000 in a wide variety of materials such as carbon fiber, fiberglass or ABS, and Equipped with practical accessories inside.
