Traps Ghosts
You know how it is. It's 3am, you've had half a lager shandy, and you find yourself bidding on ebay for a 100 year old bowlback mandolin that you don't really need but which looks really cute and is a) cheap and b) claimed to be playable.
Then you win the auction, the instrument arrives, and you realise immediately that you need some way to store the thing. Not only that but it's not really playable above the 7th fret and it's definitely haunted. Probably.
This is the case you are looking for. Holds bowlbacks. Even 100 year old bowlbacks. No ghost infestations. Does not fix the 7th fret issue, but it's a case, not a luthier. It's the case you'll transport the instrument in when you finally get around to taking it to the luthier.
If that ever happens.

relatively expensive but quality
Quality case for bowl back mandolins, it's relatively expensive compared to other options but you get what you pay for. Key locks are not great as is the case in most instrument cases but a good key lock would cost more than this case anyway...

Perfect Solution at a Great Price
I recently acquired a restored bowl-back mandolin and needed a case since it did not come with one. Options were very limited, especially in the states and most of the hard cases available were too big and too expensive. The Gewa case fits my mandolin well, perfectly cradling the bowl back to keep it secure and snug. There is plenty of room in the neck area for storing cloths and other misc. items. I only wish it had a compartment (like violin and guitar cases) as I worry about things rubbing up on the wood of the neck or clanking around in there. I will just need to find a soft padded pouch without zippers or any hardware for storing my items.
This Gewa case feels very secure and is a great option on a budget for a hard case. The price is comparable to some soft cases and offers infinitely better protection for your precious mandolin. The quality actually exceeded my expectations and I would enthusiastically recommend it.

Gewa Mandolin Case Review
The Gewa Mandolin Case is absolutely gorgeous. The Gewa mandolin fits snugly into keeping it safe and secure. This purchase was a surprise gift for my daughter and she could not be happier if she had chosen it personally. The case arrived in great condition, securely packaged and on time as stated. Thank you, Thomann for a great service.

A robust case at a great price
I bought this case for an antique, bowl-backed, mandolin. It's extremely robust with a solid frame - perfectly aligned catches and room for a cloth, tuner etc. I was impressed by its build quality at a relatively inexpensive price.

good quality, pitty for the inner lining smell
Very well made and secure case. Pitty though that matterial is some sort of synthetic polyester - also the inside smells unpleasantly for that reason (I hope the smell will fade with time!). I wish Gewa made also theirmadolin cases in that natural flax-based material they use for some of their violin cases they offer. So much healthier to have around and nice to skip producing plastic waste since it is with current technology simply unnecessary.
