New Shar Violin Cases

December 1, 2007 at 04:02 PM · I think they are very pretty :) My thought is that if you destroyed a BAM in 6 months, it wouldn't hold up, though. I look at that lovely pastel pink, and sky blue, and wonder how long until it starts to get grunge marks. (I leave my case open a lot, and my cat jumps in whenever the instrument isn't taking up space.)

Good old Jaeger is probably what you need - but they do get the earth for them nowadays.

But I am also a fashionista that needed a violin case that was as pretty as my designer handbag, not someone looking for a rugged, durable case. I'm super careful with my case and I've only scuffed one of the corners in the 3 months I've had it in an unfortunate stiletto-sidewalk incident a few weeks ago causing me to throw my violin a good 5 feet... Most of the marks were washed off with a little bit of Dawn on a paper towel and light scrubbing.

I have a feeling that if you wore out a BAM case then this is probably not the case for you, but otherwise I'd highly recommend it! It's SO pretty and even the Dean of my music school loves it!

I got a hole burned in it from a lightbulb, the music pouch on top keeps flopping off, and the backpack straps keep breaking. I think the Lang series are really pretty too, and I was going to get it in brown with the pink decorations so it wouldn't get dirty as fast. Thanks guys!

It's not the most practical case in the world, but it is very beautiful. This line of violin cases is perhaps one of the most beautiful out there I feel. Most violin cases seem to come in dark colors and it is a breath of fresh air to find some that come in such beautiful colors as the Lang cases do.
