The BAM Hightech Violin Cabin case is designed to comply with the carry-on baggage restrictions imposed by airlines. This allows you to take your violin into the cabin and not leave it to the mercy of the extreme temperature fluctuations of the aircraft hold – not to mention the handling of hold luggage!

The outside dimensions are within the limits of normal overhead cabin luggage*. It doesn’t have space for a bow which can either be put in your case in the hold or would normally go in a BAM bow tube (see separate product) in hold luggage. The cabin case comes with a set of 2 elastic retainers to attach the bow tube to the case.

  • Weight: 1.2 kg
  • Inside dimensions: Total Length 62 cm, Body Length 39 cm, Upper bout: 19 cm, Lower bout: 22 cm
  • Outside dimensions: 63x23x15 cm

  1. Paul Newton

    What is the point of a violin case where you can’t even fit a violin bow? Well, this is just such a case, and the reason is clear: so that you can take your precious violin as cabin baggage and not have it suffer abuse in the hold. As such, this case does exactly what it promises: it is a minimalist yet solid structure around the violin itself, with no space for any accessories. Technically it does slightly exceed the cabin baggage allowance (length – by a few centimeters) – but it is so small and cute, that I’ve even taken it aboard evil Ryanair fights without them flinching an eye

    Is it perfect? NO. I would dearly love to meet the designer of this case, so that he/she could explain why they have fitted two (yes, two) combination locks on what should have been a simple little protective case. So you put your multi-million Stradivarius in it, and you think it’s secured with a combination code – the thief won’t simply pick up the case and walk away with it??? On the contrary, the combination codes are a pain in the backside and serve absolutely no useful purpose. If anything, it’s a way of saying “hey – I’m valuable – steal me”. I just cannot get inside the head of the designer.

    Apart from that niggle, the case does what it should: it contours the outline of the violin, it protects the instrument, and it is small – so you should be able to carry your precious instrument as cabin luggage, which is the whole idea.

    This is a great case. However, the process involved in attaching and removing the bow is extremely cumbersome – well it is for trad musicians like myself in a busy pub session after a long cycle. What does this involve? Well you can’t open the case without taking the bow straps off and you have to take the shoulder straps off to get the large bow strap off. My solution works really well. I have made a new bow strap with Velcro and now removing it is so much easier. The bow case is much fatter than I expected but I love the case.
