Violin case material balances protection, weight and price. Each option suits a different buyer.
Wood (plywood, tolex covered)
Classic, warm look. Good protection. Heavier. Preferred for premium and vintage-style cases.
Fiberglass
Light, very strong, waterproof. The professional standard for touring. Higher cost.
ABS (molded)
Affordable, lightweight, waterproof. Great for student cases and school programs.
Which to stock
- Schools/rentals: ABS.
- Mid-market: wood or ABS with plush interiors.
- Professionals: fiberglass.
We produce all three. See our violin cases or request material samples for your program.
