Title: Anyone know about these Fiberglass Guitar Cases?
Post by: LK17 on June 16, 2017, 08:18:28 PM
Looking on Elderly and found this and I really like what I see but I don't know much about them.

Also found this one on Sweetwaters website. I now there was an older model of this but apparently this is the new model and it's supposedly much better.

Btw these are similar to a Calton case but a Calton case is not within my budget lol.

Thanks :)

Just my not so humble opinion, but a white case doesn't float my boat. :)

Lol, they offer in other colors such as red, blue and black. I like the seal on these cases to help regulate temperature and humidity a little.

I've had a problem recently with my Taylor Deluxe hard shell case. It was nothing I did to the case but an issue from factory. I called Taylor and spoke with them and explained my issue and how I've had the case only a couple months and that it came with my 814CE but the guy on the phone and the manager refused to fix or replace the case. They said some cases are just like mine and if I don't like it then I should just buy an aftermarket case. I'm not trying to bad mouth Taylor or anyone here but it was very frustrating. I've only had my 814CE and case for 2 1/2 months and never left my house. So I'm left with the deal of finding a better case.
