This professional level quality violin
case combines beauty, protection and usability into one. The interior of
the case is covered with high quality velvet making
this a case loved by the professional violinists. This archtop hardshell
case comes with a complete humidity management system providing not only
physical protection to the violin but also protection against moisture and
dryness.
The humidity management system comes with a
beautiful brass hygrometer that provides the humidity reading at all times.
You can monitor the humidity level and action appropriately before atmospheric
elements do any damage to the violin. With the humidifier, you
can increase moisture in the case to the appropriate level. This is
especially useful during the winter time when the air is dry. Since this
humidifier is attached to the case, water would never come in direct contact
with the violin making it a much better choice than the humidifiers that get
inserted into the violin directly.
When the violin is exposed to high level of
humidity, it may cause the wood to lose its rigidity and the fingerboard of the
violin to lower. The high humidity seasons are summer, spring, and fall
with summer being the highest. During these seasons, you may want to place
the violin in an air-conditioned room or in a room with dehumidifier to keep
humidity low. Extreme dry condition (especially during the winter season) causes glue that holds the violin
together to lose its adhesiveness creating cracks in the violin.
The WeatherGard
case cover protects its content against the most vicious natural elements of all:
water. Violin and water don't mix well. Water damage to the violin
can often spell death for the instrument. One of the worst nightmares a
musician can have is getting caught in the rain. The WeatherGard cover is
a synthetic material that has the texture and characteristics of leather, and is
used as an imitation to leather. With the WeatherGard
cover which is not permeable by water, rain would roll off the case without
making the cover wet and keep the violin inside completely dry. This cover
makes this violin having the highest water protection rating.
The hardshell case provides solid strength to the overall
integrity of the case. The arch shape design of the case top adds
additional rigidity to the case. This design is valuable in providing
uncompromising case integrity in the event of accidentally placing heavy load on
top of case and protecting violin's most vulnerable parts.
The case comes with many other protection
features for the violin. Deluxe 4-point suspension cushions, neck strap,
and detachable blanket. These features are designed to ensure that your
violin is well protected inside the case. Weather guard flaps along the
handle side of the case add
