Momentum is a completely super-compact, ultra-light design for those on the go.
The violin is placed centrally with a large open-space area around the scroll, and is protected from impact in all directions. The viola case is slightly more conventional (a necessity due to the greater length of the instrument), but still offers superlative safety, light weight, and considerable room for accessories.
Momentum is available in two versions to meet every need. The standard Momentum has an elegant interior lining in suede-like Royale, while the Momentum Z has stylish, colorful, high-fashion silks and satins make the Momentum Z stand out in a crowd.
Design and construction
Shell
Revolutionary and exclusive hybrid Kevlar® and wood laminate construction. Continuum High-Tensile™ wood laminate specially milled to 0.1mm tolerances in thickness, up to 6-ply. Inner layers checked for defects via transparency before use. Structure cold-bent to avoid possible warping; lightweight, highly resistant and repairable in case of damage. Internal partitions are load-bearing and structural to increase the overall strength. Monolithic impact absorbing structure created through the use of high-density (28 kg/m3) foam with surface reinforcement cemented to both sides and bottom. Though-bolted zinc-plated steel reinforcements on all viola cases for superior long-term durability. Reinforced hinge and back-pack attachment area. Case shell designed to withstand equalized pressure on the lid equivalent to the weight of an average person.
Cover
Made with military-specification Cordura® nylon, water-and-tear-resistant, and treated with Teflon® to reduce wear and scuffing. Long-lasting YKK zippers, 25mm zipper stitching support, synthetic thread, double-folded edging and upgraded through-bolted strap attachments (instead of sewn-on D-rings) to assure long life. Padding on underside reduces bumps to the instrument when the case is set down. Includes new expandable LieFlat™ music pocket, full-length rain flap and is replaceable.
