Modified case for VZ-58
« on: September 26, 2012, 12:42:54 PM »
Just thought I would share, I got this idea from another forum member.  It's a violin case, slightly modified(a few cuts here and there) to fit my VZ-58 Military Folder.  It's a nice tight fit with no play.  I just wanted something different!

Slick. Reminiscent of Tommy guns in Mobster days.

The theme from Gunslinger Girl just started playing in my head...

Seriously, very cool. Need to work on how to include the magazine. ;)

The dimensions are:

Interior length - 27"
Interior Back width - 9"
Interior Front width - 5"
Case depth(when closed) - 4"
Entire case length - 29"

I was told that it fits a 3/4 size violin, or a 13" viola.  Hope that helps.
