Cello Cases

There are a a few different types of common cases for cellos: soft cases, semi-rigid hard cases, and hard cases (usually fiberglass or carbon fiber). Cases come in all price ranges and quality, but we encourage you to invest in a good case! Protect your investment!

Prices subject to change based on distributor pricing at the time of ordering.

  • Soft Cases

    These cases are lightweight cases that offer minimal protection but great maneuverability.

  • Hard Cases

    These come in a variety of different shapes and sizes. These all have a hard outer shell and offers great protection. Softer fabric/cushion covers are sometimes available as well.

Soft Cases

Soft cases are great for being lightweight and getting around town. If you’re doing any serious travelling, we recommend you travel with a hard case!
