bam 2000XLORG Violin Case

I had bought BAM violin case 10years ago. It look 99% same as present 2002XL. And now I got a new case 2000XL! The size is smaller and the handle on the top of the case is actually really useful. Only pity thing is not enough room for sholder rest. My shoulder rest isn't bulky, so the case can be closed with it inside but I'm not happy to squish case even a little, therefore, I am still trying to find out the best shape of its legs to fit in the limited space.

Another great thing is this 2000XL doesn't catch my hair when you shoulder it! Last one always caught.. the clips of shoulder belt was there really close to hair.

One more! The 2000XL does not open 180degree fully, which is great. I would say 2000Xl does just 90degree. Last one opened 180.. It was actually annoying.

Please don't misunderstand this review. My previous one which i bought 10yrs ago wouldn't be same one as present 2002Xl. I'm sure 2002XL is newer model which has enhanced, improved and reformed.

By the way, the service in the customer centre was excellent! So kind and helpful. And it's well-packed and delivered safely. I am so happy to have done this purchase with Thomann. Thanks!
