Although they ARE sturdy and secure, there are certain things about these cases that every shopper needs to be aware of. Carbon Fiber cases are very light because the carbon fiber is tougher than other materials, therefore, the case body is not very thick. This creates a few issues that you need to be aware of before purchasing:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen open, Carbon fiber cases have quite a bit of flex and it takes some care to line up the top and bottom correctly before latching. However, when closed, they are very rigid.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStanding a carbon fiber case on end with your cello in it (case either opened or closed) is NOT recommended because of the slim profile and light weight. It would take just a slight bump to unbalance it and knock it over.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe less expensive the carbon fiber case is, the more issues you will have with it. Like all other things, you get what you pay for.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLess expensive carbon fiber cases tend to have more issues with fit and finish, including hardware failures, durability, and padding.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca id=\"videos\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"dop","offers":[{"title":"Aurora Gloss Weave","offer_id":48249055740153,"sku":"dopUltralight-auroraWeave","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cosmic Black Splatter","offer_id":48249055772921,"sku":"dopUltralight-blackSplatter","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Black Weave","offer_id":48249055805689,"sku":"dopUltralight-blackWeave","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cosmic White Splatter","offer_id":48249055838457,"sku":"dopUltralight-cosmicWhiteSplatter","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cosmic Silver","offer_id":48249055871225,"sku":"dopUltralight-cosmicSilver","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gloss Red Weave","offer_id":48249055903993,"sku":"dopUltralight-redWeave","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Lavender Purple","offer_id":48249055936761,"sku":"dopUltralight-lavenderPurple","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Midnight Blue Weave","offer_id":48249055969529,"sku":"dopUltralight-midnightBlueWeave","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sky Blue","offer_id":48249056002297,"sku":"dopUltralight-skyBlue","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White","offer_id":48249056035065,"sku":"dopUltralight-White","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Yellow","offer_id":48249056067833,"sku":"dopUltralight-Yellow","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0490\/9504\/9376\/files\/fullfront.jpg?v=1775346427","url":"https:\/\/www.lindawestcellos.com\/products\/feather-carbon-fiber-cello-case-by-dop","provider":"Linda West Cellos","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
