SEE THE MEASUREMENTS TAB ABOVE FOR HELP MEASURING YOUR CELLO. ALSO: SEE VIDEO BELOW Model: PANT1005XL Weight: 7.6 lbs. / 3.4kg The BAM Panther Hightech is a variant of the Compact 3.5, and is designed to fit the instrument as closely as possible, taking off a few ounces in weight. It is therefore one of our lightest BAM cases and is a great option if weight limits are a concern. This case is a full-suspension case, meaning that no part of the cello is in direct contact with the outer shell of the case at any time, and the instrument is held in place with molded foam padding. The case has a triple-ply shell, with an Airex skeleton sandwiched between a film of tear resistant plastic and an outside layer of a new material which has a rubberized, tactile feel to it. A special feature of this case is that a new design on the backside gives excellent balance to the case while it is laying flat. It also features two bow holders, anti-slip shoulder straps (this case does not come with wheels), an accessory pocket, and a comfortable handle. The outside is waterproof.Comes in Black or Grey. Interior is black. Note: Uses D rings and swivel snaps, which occasionally fail. We recommend buying Security Cables just in case. Note that although the density of the "sandwich" structure is increased compared to the BAM 3.5, the thickness is reduced. Although these cases are protective and excellent for daily use, they should not be used for heavy air travel. For air travel we recommend the Bam Flight Case
