Heritage Challenger Deluxe Viola Case

Great case, unhappy with unexpected fees on my order. Was charged for expedited shipping I didn’t ask for, customer service refused to fix it and started ignoring my messages. By the way, I didn’t receive the order in “expedited” time despite the charge. First time I’ve had such poor customer service from Shar, very disappointing.

Heritage Challenger Deluxe Viola Case

I have used the viola case for two weeks. It is large and I think it would fit almost all larger violas. My 15 inch viola has space around the edges but does not move with the neck support moved into position with the velcro adjustment provision. I have fifty years of experience playing the viola and violin and I expect the case to serve well forever. The service from Shar is very good.

This is a solid case and will allow developing students to feel like a pro. The case is ADJUSTABLE, the cradle for the upper bout is held in place by Velcro. Simply pull it all the way out and resize for your viola.
The exterior is large that and does not fit vertically or flat in a Wenger instrument locker- the handle contacts either the top (vertically) of side (flat). Fits snuggly at an angle, but there will be no sharing your cubby with this case!

This case was one of the cases available to come with my viola when I purchased it, so I decided it would do.
I've had this case for four years or so now, and has held up reasonably well for as much as I carry it around; I've carried it back and forth to school every day for all four years. I'm looking to get a new case now, as it is pretty beat up now. The first to go at the metal feet on it, they all fell off pretty quickly, and the outer pocket has started to tear off along the zippers (but I probably keep more in that pocket than I should). The shoulder stap did break after only a few uses, but another strap would still attach just fine.
Overall, I think this case help up tremendously for the amount of beating it has taken.
