The Howard Core CC498V viola case is built to protect violas while keeping organization and transport simple for players on the move. Its sturdy wood shell and canvas exterior create a rigid barrier against knocks and pressure, while the suspension-style interior cradles the instrument to reduce shifting during travel. Inside, dedicated storage keeps bows and accessories secure and separated. A built-in hygrometer helps monitor humidity levels that can affect the instrument, and exterior backpack straps allow for comfortable hands-free carrying between rehearsals, lessons, or performances. A full-length exterior pocket provides space for sheet music and additional essentials, balancing protection with practical storage.
This model is available to fit 15″–15.5″ and 16″–16.5″ violas.
