The History and Appeal of Marcus Bonna

Durability, ample storage, and the joy of choosing—
a classic among handmade cases that set a new standard for wind instrument cases.

History | Tracing a Great Legacy | From the Early Days to
the Present

Marcus Bonna originally made his name as a horn player with the São Paulo Symphony Orchestra. To solve the problem of heavy cases—a constant source of frustration during his travels—he designed his own original horn case.His cases, which allowed for easy and safe transport, gained recognition both within and outside the orchestra—and eventually even overseas—leading him to establish MB.
Today, the company produces a wide variety of wind instrument cases, and MB cases—meticulously handcrafted—have established themselves as the top brand in the wind instrument case industry.

Appeal | Why Does Marcus Bonna Continue to Captivate Musicians?

Simply put, these three points stand out:
• Durability
• Storage Capacity
• Design. Sturdy semi-hard cases made of
fiberglass. A wide variety of models designed to accommodate
different instrument combinations.
Additionally, with 38 color variations—including nylon and leather options—you’re sure to find a unique case that no one else has.

Features | The True Appeal
of Marcus Bonna

Aside from these reasons for its popularity, the biggest advantage of MB cases is, of course, their ability to safely store instruments.
No matter how sturdy the case itself is, if the instrument isn’t properly protected by the internal components, it could lead to accidents. Since the internal dividers in MB cases can be freely adjusted, you can arrange your instrument in the optimal configuration, ensuring a secure hold that cases from other manufacturers simply can’t match.

How to Choose
a Marcus Bonna Case

Do you need to transport multiple instruments? Do you want to carry mutes or a music stand? Will you be traveling by train or by car? MB cases can accommodate any situation. In recent years, in particular, the company has released a series of “compact and safe” cases, demonstrating MB’s ongoing commitment to quality. With a
wide range of color options and the ability to customize combinations, you might even want to create a case that’s truly one-of-a-kind.
