Musafia Master Series Exclusive Dart Violin Case - Compact, Expert Protection with Refined Royale Interior

Handcrafted in Cremona, Italy, the Musafia Master Series Exclusive Dart Violin Case is a premium dart-shaped case built for serious violinists who want Master Series protection in a compact, travel-ready format.

The Musafia Master Series Violin Case was first introduced in 1988 and designed without compromise for players carrying instruments worthy of the highest level of protection. The Exclusive Dart version brings that legacy into a more compact shaped design, pairing Musafia’s protective Master Series construction with a refined interior lined in suede-like Royale and velvet plush. For professionals, advanced students, teachers, collectors, and traveling players, the Master Series Exclusive Dart offers a strong balance of security, elegance, portability, and practical organization.

Musafia’s protective design pairs a hybrid Kevlar® and 6-ply wood laminate shell with robust impact absorption across the case, while EnCase™ side-impact protection reinforces the vulnerable outer perimeter, so the case is built to protect from multiple directions. A replaceable Cordura® nylon cover adds water- and tear-resistance, with treatment to reduce wear and scuffing over time. YKK zippers, a full-length rain flap, through-bolted D-rings, and a LieFlat™ expandable pocket for sheet music or an iPad complete an exterior built for players who need serious protection without unnecessary bulk.

Within the Master Series Exclusive Dart, the violin has a secure, carefully cushioned place to rest. Four-point Offset Plane™ suspension, contour-fit padding, a leather neck restraint, and a padded blanket work together to support the instrument comfortably while keeping it stable in the case. SoftTouch™ bow holders, rosin-resistant bow ribbons, soft bow tip holders, a flexible string tube, photo retaining ribbons, elastic for string packets, pencil holders, and an accessory compartment keep the interior refined and orderly. A built-in Dimus II™ humidifier, calibrated hygrometer, and thermometer help players monitor the case environment in detail, while Royale lining, velvet plush, cherrywood burl trim, brass hinging, and gold-laminated metal parts give the interior its refined Musafia character.

Shar Music carries additional variants of the Master Series, including: the Master Series Exclusive Oblong and Master Series Aureum.
