Folks - Any recommendations for a case for a 4 string violin plus a 5 string (the 5 string being bigger than a violin - more like a small viola) that:
- is lightweight
- has backstraps
- has space for shoulder rests
- is available in the UK
and ideally can hold A4 printed music
many thanks
Stuart
If the body is over 14.5” inches, it would probably make the most sense to choose a violin/viola case. BAM and GEWA both make them, and they are both based in Europe (at least the headquarters) and would likely be available to the UK. Of course, if you have the money for it, you could spring for a Timms case, which would be custom-made and local to you. They’re sort of like Gordge cases with some modern touches.
