Bam Performance Case (soft)

This is a densely-padded nylon bag with a water repellent polyurethane coating. The interior is velvet over foam padding for some thermal as well as shock protection. There is leather padding over the vulnerable bridge zone, and leather handles. The usual accessory pockets for rosin/rockstop and sheet music are present, and the bow pocket is rigidized and includes two padded sleeves. The zipper does not stop at the C peg, but wraps around the top of the scroll to the A peg, so the bag can open flat. Weight 6.5 pounds. If cello length exceeds 48″ (122 mm), endpin may protrude a bit – depends on fitting and tip. We have fit Montagnana with lower bouts 18.25″ (460 mm)

Gewa Air

While Gewa Air fits many 4/4 cellos, it has adjustable features that make it ideal for short-pattern cellos like Guadagnini or 7/8 cellos. The shell is constructed of two strong thermoplastic layers with injected foam bonded to interior suspension lining. This design makes it tortionally strong, more puncture resistant, and affords thermal protection. An aluminum strip runs down the face of the case for increased rigidity at bridge zone. The interior features an adjustable sling to customize fit. It also may fit some extra-long cellos because of the flexible configuration of pads in the shoulder/neck region. Guideline dimensions are 14.5″ UB, 18″ LB, total length 51.5″ but fit requires more details so contact us. Five latches, one with an integrated combination lock. Leather handles. Weight ~9 lbs In stock Black, Beige. Backpack with music pocket (rucksack) is available for this case.

Bam Classic wheels

Just add wheels and an external-mounted pulling handle onto the description of Bam’s CLASSIC case. All other features are identical. As long as you are wheeling on smooth hard surfaces, or moving at a pace that doesn’t make the arm pulling the case bounce all over the place, the superior suspension system will handle the vibration and protect your cello. Remember the handle on the scroll compartment is for wheeling, not lifting. Weight 12 pounds. In stock: Black and Light Grey at the price of $907. Any new cases will be at the new price of $961.

Bam Shamrock wheels

This model adds wheels and a pulling handle onto the standard Shamrock, so be sure to look at that listing for more details and dimensions. Color options and all features are the same. The popularity of this case — if your cello fits — is its weight 8.5 pounds WITH WHEELS! Again, the density and size of the suspension pads afford protection from vibration when wheeling on most surfaces. If your arm is bouncing all over the place as you walk, either slow down, get a smoother surface, or put the case on your back. Common sense rules. Orangey in stock $1480. All cases coming in will be at the new price

Bam Hightech Adjustable

BAM HIGH TECH 4.4 is a large case with an adjustable interior to fit most 4/4 cellos up to 39cm UB, 48 cm LB, body length 79 cm, total length 126 cm. It is the go-to case for many Goffrillers and Montagnanas. Shell is 3-ply ABS over an Airex foam core and provides superior thermal and shock resistance. Easily closes with 5 latches for a weathertight seal. Dense foam suspension pads support the neck and bottom blocks. The pad at the neck block is on a velcro track and can be moved to fit the body length, keeping track of the C peg’s proximity to the case edge. Additional velcro-back pads are included to customize fit. This case is identifiable by the soft patch over the bridge, and loop handle on the back. Weight 4.4kg (9.8 lbs) Available in black carbon look. YES, it does fit in the Bam Flight Cover. Start with the scroll end!!

Bam Hightech Compact

HIGHTECH COMPACT weighs 7.75 lbs (3.5 kg), 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. Available: Tweed

Bam High Tech Slim

Bam HighTech Slim is sculpted closely to the contours of the cello, providing a compact ultralight cello case. Protection is excellent with a thermal and shock-resistant Airex core beneath its strong ABS shell. Weight is ~ 7 lbs. 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 (set of 2) are 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 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).
