I've been using the SYC Feather regularly since purchasing one recently and absolutely love it. After around 15 years using a BAM cello case, I was looking for something significantly lighter for commuting around London, and the difference has been incredible. The case is exceptionally light but feels very well made and secure, and it's proving excellent for everyday professional use. The team were also extremely helpful throughout the buying process, particularly in working out the fit for my Montagnana-pattern cello. I'm very happy with it and would definitely recommend taking a look if you're looking for a lightweight cello case.
Absolutely beautiful cello case and incredibly lightweight. a real game changer for me! The customer service has also been excellent. Really happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend SYC.
