Bam Saint Germain Oblong Viola Case: Classic. Functional. Protective.
The Bam Saint Germain Oblong viola case combines classic design and modern functionality. It’s spacious, protective, and offers awesome features!
This case is available in two sizes:
- 15.5 inches/40 cm
- 16 inches/41.5 cm
Premium and Durable Canvas Cover
This case features Bam’s ballistic fabric, an upgraded version of their original Stylus design. This high-quality fabric is a major improvement over the old version—it’s more water-resistant and better protected against abrasion and general wear.

Signature Inside Protective Foam

The inside foam is specially designed to protect your viola from temperature changes by preventing heat and moisture absorption. Plus, the foam works as a suspension system. If you accidentally drop the case, your viola stays “suspended,” keeping it safe from shocks and impacts.
Think of it as a comfy Temper-pedic foam mattress made specifically for your viola.
Large Removable Accessories Pouch
Get organized with the large removable pouch! It’s perfect for keeping all your essentials—shoulder rest, cleaning cloth, rosin, pencil, and more—in one easily accessible spot.

Zipper with a Combination Lock

Unlike most cases, this one comes with a combination lock for the zippers. This extra security prevents accidental openings and keeps your viola safe from theft. Just set your own combination and you’re good to go.
Music Compartment on the Backside
There’s a spacious compartment on the back for storing your music sheets, iPad, and other accessories.
This clever design ensures your case doesn’t do a backflip on you when opening the case (which is a concern when the sheet music is on the top side, making it top-heavy).
Bonus: Two pouches inside the sheet music pouch for further organization of accessories.

Removable Backpack Straps

This case features D-rings and two padded backpack straps that create a classic upside-down V shape. Want to switch it up? You can use one strap to carry the case over your shoulder instead.
