Carlisle Alliance Shaped Violin Case

Edited: November 27, 2023, 5:13 PM · Does any one have any experience with the carlisle alliance shaped violin Case? (Link below)

Is it sturdy and do you think it's work the price?

The case probably won't, but, does it fit a bon musical shoulder rest? If not, how do you keep the shoulder rest?

Also, where was the case designed and/ or made?

You're able to store a VLM Diamond, over the neck/fingerboard, barely. A bigger shoulder rest will be a problem.
