I have a lute, and the pegbox to neck joint has actually come unglued
but the pegbox stayed on the lute, and the lute still worked perfectly,
because of the way the mortice for the joint was cut. It looks like the
person who made your lute did not use the same shape for the joint!

Hello,
There is no problem on the case at all.
Case is really very good.
I can recommend this case everybody.
I’m afraid; I just forgot mail address of case maker.
Combination of my picture was not good.
The lute did not break while in the case.
The lute has broken while playing.
You can see that work of joint of the peg box is very poor.

Hello there,
I must say those photos do not reassure me as to the safety of these
cases!!!! (Gulp!) I assume the lute broke in the case? At any
rate,
good luck with the repairs.
Do you know if this maker is still active? I have been told by
someone
that he has retired. Also, I would really appreciate it if you
could
forward his e-mail address.
See below.....

I have one of the La Soma Case for my German Theorbo.
Yes, of course this case is very light. This is a type of semi
hard
case.

You can see other pictures for more detail.

You might also find there is poor lute maker in the world.
I take it you are not sold on this maker, then?
Best wishes,

I couldn't find the link to the photos, but are those the
styrofoam
cases? I think Takahashi Tsunoda may have one. He showed it to
Jakob
Lindberg when he was here and Jakob commented about it being very
light.

Dear All,
Does anyone on this list have any experience with the lute cases
of
Japanese
maker Shigeru Soma (La Soma)? They look very good, although I'm
not
sure
they are hard cases. They are extremely light and well made,
weighing
in at
about 1-1.5 kg. See the photos below.
Just thought I'd pas this on for your information.
All best wishes,
Benjamin
