  • Bam Classic with wheels

    Bam Classic with wheels

    Bam’s Classic is their most affordable case, having a 1-ply ABS shell compared to their higher-end models with multi-ply shells.   The interior dense, broad padding suspends the cello under its strongest structural  parts: the neck and bottom blocks.  Cellists concerned about wheeling their case will appreciate the material of the wheels and their spacing, as well as the protection the suspension pads provide from vibration and impact.  The Classic features an internal music pocket, but common sense dictates what will fit without interfering with the back of your instrument.  The hardware, carabiners and shoulder straps are top quality, and comfortable whether wearing a tank top or coat.  This case has a generous interior and comfortably fits this cello with back length 30″, upper bouts 14 3/8″, lower bouts 17 5/8″,  Total length from top of scroll to bottom edge 48 1/2″ plus  2 1/4″ for the endpin well.   Weight 13 pounds.

  • Bam Newtech w/o wheels

    Bam Newtech w/o wheels

    Bam’s NewTech is a strong case, having a 3-ply ABS shell with internal foam core which adds shock and thermal protection.  Broad, dense foam pads support the cello under the neck block and bottom block, which structurally are the strongest parts.   If you have rigorous travel in your future, definitely consider this case if the dimensions and contours fit your specific cello, and there are adequate clearances.  See all case specs in the photo gallery.  Latch issues may be avoided by fastening the side latch under the handle first.  If this closes easily, the lid and back are aligned and all other latches should easily engage.    BLACK, BLUE, MINT

  • Bam High Tech Compact

    Bam High Tech Compact

    Currently we have one on sale, price $2,078  HIGH TECH COMPACT weighs 4.4 kg (9.7 lbs).  With both shoulder straps, 10,4.  It fits most cellos up to 14.25″ UB, 17.5″LB.  The widest part of a cello does not always fall at the widest part of the case as contours vary.  A strong 3-ply ABS shell over an Airex foam core provides superior thermal and impact protection. Unlike the Slim 2.9, this has more depth, providing greater buffer zone between the cello and the outside world. No worries with the angle of the neck causing the scroll to touch the back of the case. The interior has broad, dense foam suspension pads under the neck and bottom blocks — the strongest structural parts of the cello — and has the standard interior 2 holders, string pocket, shoulder straps.   Colors:  Tweed, Black Carbon Look.

  • Bam High Tech Slim

    Bam High Tech Slim

    Bam HighTech Slim is sculpted closely to the contours of the cello, providing a compact 8 lb 6 oz cello case.  Protection is excellent with a thermal and shock-resistant Airex core beneath its strong ABS shell.  Dense, broad foam cushions suspend the cello at its bottom and neck blocks. The buffer zone between cello and outside world is reduced, so take your specific usage into consideration before buying. Standard 2 bow holders, a string pocket, shoulder straps, etc. The neck and scroll strap fasten with a clasp. UB 14.25″, LB 17.5″ It is also advised to check the cello laying down to see whether the neck/scroll angle is too extreme to fit without resting on the scroll compartment.

  • Bam Straps

    Bam Straps

    Bam straps (set of 2) are BLACK, padded, non-slip, comfortable, adjustable, and safe with high-quality carabiners. Straps are included with every new Bam case but can be purchased and used on any case with D-rings. *Note if your height is 5’5″ or under, you may want to order the SHORT set which will allow the case to rest a bit higher on your back.   The straps are the same length, but the shoulder cushion is 3″ shorter.   Straps should be attached at the upper D ring with the flat sides touching (see diagram).

  • Bam Ergonomic Backpack

    Bam Ergonomic Backpack

    Bam’s Ergo Backpack is a European hiking pack for maximum comfort when trekking with case. Weight 2.4 pounds, attaches with D ring at top, two Velcro straps to D rings at lower bouts. A cushioned zippered music pocked rests between your back and the case shell. Pad is 12″ at widest part, 22″ long. We put in a 10×11.5″ binder 1″ thick and it fit. Oversize orchestral parts fit.  There’s a small utility pouch on the waist belt.  Be aware this makes the case back-heavy when standing empty, and also prevents it from laying flat, if that matters to you.  It tends to be less comfortable for petite cellists, not just height but narrow frame and shoulders.

  • Bam interior pads

    Bam interior pads

    A six-pack of pads is available to customize fit in any cello hard case. The pads are 3″ x 4″, covered in black fabric with an opening on one side to allow removal or addition of padding as needed. Since the pads are backed with loopy velcro, to be used on a HighTech 4.4 Velcro track, they will not stick to the interior of your case unless you add the soft velcro yourself, either with glue gun or using adhesive-backed Velcro (brand).
