A solid case at a very reasonable price. Jun 24, 2009
By James T. Walczak
"Lomitus"
Ok...it's a guitar case. It's not like we're talking about a "Custom Shop" instrument here costing several thousand dollars or anything. If you are thinking about purchasing this item then chances are you already -KNOW- what it is. If not, this is a plywood construction hardshell guitar case designed for your average strat or tele style guitar (in other words, it won't fit a Les Paul). It provides a moderate degree of protection to a guitar while it's being taken from one place to another. The level of protection isn't as good as a plastic/synthetic/molded case which may be capable of protecting your cherished axe from a 20,000 foot fall from an airplane however it is CONSIDERABLY better than a simple "gig bag" which gives your instrument virtually no protection at all. In other words, if you are planning on shipping your guitar cross-country or internationally and/or your roadies have all of the grace of drunken, deranged orangutans during mating season, you -might- just want something a bit beefier...or at least a second ATA case to put this inside of. If on the other hand you're looking for something decent to take your axe to and from practice or gigs that will protect it from the average rigors associated with moving an instrument around, this is a very good way to go. The quality and workmanship are quite good, it's very attractive (assuming that you are like me and really dig tweed!) and it serves it's function and purpose very well as one would expect from a hardshell guitar case.
What makes this particular item note worthy is simply -the price-. If you've shopped around then you have probably already noticed that a "genuine Fender" case of this same style costs CONSIDERABLY more...often upwards of $150+ and in some cases (no pun intended) even the off brands can cost upwards around $100. The difference? Honestly, not much at all. The craftsmanship, the hardware and the attention to detail are all pretty comparable. The only notable difference is that a genuine Fender case has that Fender logo on the side...something that in my always and ever so humble opinion is hardly worth an extra $100+. I would have no worries at all about putting an American Standard or even a Custom Shop instrument in this case.
There are certainly those folks who really seem to believe that "you get what you pay for" who won't be content with anything except the highest priced item on the shelf (and always seem to have the dinero to pay it!). Of course there are those purists out there who have to have EVERYTHING "genuine" (as if having a logo on something such as a guitar case somehow makes it more special). If this type of snobbery isn't an issue for you and/or you're an average "working musician" simply looking for a decent hardshell at a fair price, this guitar case is an EXCELLENT value. Save that extra $100 to get your car fixed so you can make it to your next practice!
Good looks, good protection for your instrument and a great price...need I say more?

Good value but not great fit for tele May 02, 2010
By Flatfive I bought the tweed version. It's attractive and not as heavy as I expected. The construction quality appears to be pretty good, and latches also seem of decent quality. The padding inside is fairly light but sufficient.
My problem with this case is that it doesn't fit my telecaster well. When the case is laid flat, the body near the neck is slightly suspended because the neck holder in the case is a little too high. When the case is held sideways in carrying position, the whole body slides down and the neck falls out of the neck holder.
In short, the guitar is not supported as I'd like when the case is in its most usual positions.
I wouldn't buy another of these cases for a telecaster. I'll see if I have another guitar that fits this case better, and look for another case for the tele.
By the way, my case arrived with three small stains on the tweed (from about pea-sized to penny-sized).

Guitar case Jan 19, 2010
By Editor M
"Home Chef"
Quality was not up to standard. screws had fallen out of the hinges when arrived. all hinges had to be tightened. I didn't want to bother to return it because I didn't want to reorder something more expensive - wait and wait and wait - and have it arrive in the same shape. I repaired the hinges with super glue and new screws - not ideal, but I'll just try to avoid this brand/vendor in the future.

Perfect Mar 12, 2011
By Patchouli Julie =) I bought this for my husband's Fender Stratocaster, he eventually upgraded to a Telecaster. Both guitars fit well in this case, but the Telecaster fits better. Great retro vibe with the tweed outside & red velvet inside. Love the slim case. Would buy another one if he needs it.
