Protective cover for Bon Musica violin shoulder rest
The Bon Musica Shoulder Rest is so huge, maybe you're wondering if it will fit in your case. We've created this guide to help you. Like most things in life, there are a range of options that work well, some that don't work at all, and some that are... a little gimmicky.
These cases are perfect for Bon Musica!

Fiddlerman braided shape housing FC310
It's stylish, sturdy, and there's plenty of room around the reel for this monster shoulder stock. However, to protect the reel from any dings and dings, some cloth pads are required.

Negri Venetian Chalet
Not many cases have such large interior compartments. But the Bon Musica fits perfectly inside the Negri case while still leaving room for lots of other items and snacks!

Core CC500 Rectangular Violin Case
The Core CC500's rectangular case has a large accessory compartment that barely fits the Bon Musica. Fits great, but is tight!

These cases work "somewhat"
Tonarelli rectangular violin case
The Tonarelli Oblong luggage has plenty of room for shoulder pads, but no Velcro straps to hold it in place. You can easily add Velcro straps to hold it in place.

Tonarelli shaped fiberglass box
Okay, so here you have to choose: put the accessory bag in the case, or put the Bon Musica in the case. You can squeeze in both, but it's not ideal.

Gewa Air 1.7 special-shaped box
The interior of the Gewa Air-shaped case is also surprisingly spacious, but we still recommend using more cloth, towels, etc. to protect the neck, scroll, and bow.

BAM artist violin case
Technically, it fits the Bam Artisto, but there's nothing holding it in place. You'll definitely want to add some padding, a protective bag, or a washcloth between the reel and shoulder stock.

Bobelock rectangular wooden box 100
This position works surprisingly well. Again, the whole point of this is to avoid bending the Bon Musica back and forth every time you take it out. It doesn't appear to be touching the bow when the box is closed, but this isn't a long-term study either and can't say if damage to the bow will begin during shipping. I also don't have the straps on in the photo, but it's all the way there.

Fiddlerman FC200 Premium Rectangular Case
Technically, the FC200 can also be mounted without bending the shoulder plate, but similar to the BAM Artisto, you'll need to really protect the reel from the bottom of the Bon Musica. However, the FC200 has a large music cover on the outside, which is best placed in a pocket on the outside of the box.

This is by no means an exhaustive list, but we did want to share at least a few possible solutions for mounting this super popular shoulder stock into a case. The Bon Musica is a great shoulder rest, but it has a lot of metal on it. Regardless of the case you choose to put it in, you'll need to secure it carefully and protect your instrument from scratches during transport.
