About Mandolin Cases


As a performing musician, your top off-stage priority is keeping your mandolin safe from damage. And when you’re traveling with your mandolin, it’s essential to consider how your instrument can be affected by the journey. A mandolin case is a great way to keep your instrument safe and comes in many configurations. Sweetwater stocks mandolin cases of many kinds, including gig bags, hard cases, and even flight cases with TSA-recognized latches. Whatever your preference, our cases are rated to keep your instrument safe from accidental drops, scratches, bumps, rain damage, and dust. Mandolin cases and bags are even useful for storing your mandolin for long periods while not in use.


Why Case Construction Matters


It’s easy to get overwhelmed when looking for your perfect mandolin case. With so many brands and styles, make sure you look for a material you like and the features you need. Some things to look for in a mandolin case might include water-resistant fabric, robust latches, padded straps, and sturdy carry handles. Below, we’ve broken down some of the standard case types to help you find the best mandolin case for your needs.


Types of Mandolin Cases


Hardshell cases


A hard mandolin case is an excellent choice for all travel. Whether you’re jet-setting across continents or throwing your instrument in the back of a van, a mandolin hard case will keep it safe on the road. Hardshell cases are usually made from wood or molded plastic and offer exceptional protection for fragile instruments.


Gig bags


Something softer and lighter, like a mandolin bag, is an excellent option if you’re making quick trips from home to a venue. Semi-hard options offer structure and support for your mandolin in a lightweight package. Plus, they’re much easier to carry around than a fully rigid mandolin case. But if you’re looking for an extremely light carrying option, nothing beats an old-school gig bag. Usually made from lightweight nylon and offering water-resistant qualities, mandolin gig bags are excellent for local shows and traveling to your rehearsals.


A- and F-style cases


Have an A-style mandolin? We’ve got you covered. We also stock F-style mandolin cases so that every mandolin owner can find the perfect storage and transportation option for them. And if you need extra accessories, Sweetwater carries a wide array of guitar and mandolin products to make your life easier.
