Oscar Schmidt UC3 Concert Ukulele Case Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)There comes a point in your ukulele playing career when you'll decide it's time to bring your joyously uptempo act out of the home and into the world. However, there are dangers that lurk out there such as walls, baggage carriers, and friends with hammers that can very quickly turn your instrument of choice into a heap of wood and string.
And like any hockey player or woeful parent-to-be will tell you, protection is of utmost importance.
**ENOUGH CUTE BANTER, HOW IS IT:**
Step in one of the very few vinyl hard-shell case I could find here on Amazon, the Oscar Schmidt UC3 Concert Uke Case (or "the Schmidts" as I affectionately call it). The construction quality is nearly identical to what you'd find on a hard-shell case for a guitar, with a solid brownish vinyl exterior and metal buckles. Inside, the case is roomy but padded well enough to protect pretty much any Concert sized Uke. I myself own a Lanikai traditional shaped uke and a Pineapple-shaped Flea Uke and both fit surprisingly well. There's a small box under the neck for your tuner and string needs, as you'd probably find on any other case.
I could definitely see this case being checked for plane trips, but then again, it's so small I don't know why it couldn't just be carry-on. It's rugged and light, although not so durable that I would recommend people use it as a cricket bat.
**OVERALL**
Ultimately I decided of the two evils, I'd rather be mistaken for lugging a midget guitar with the Schmidts than be mistaken for yet another traveling violinist (other cases won't have the curves, as you've probably seen). It'll fit most, if not all, CONCERT Ukes snugly and give you plenty of protection for any trips you might be planning. Plus, you'll look cool.
Yes, there are no pockets for cords or paper, but I'm sure you'll use your astute powers of intellect to carry a bag on your back. This is for protecting your uke and making you look cool, not for protecting your chord sheets for "I'm Yours" and "Somewhere over the rainbow."
So yes, recommended.
