Lightweight Acoustic Dreadnought Guitar Case

Gator's Lightweight GL-Dread is the perfect cross between hard case protection and gig bag weight. Gator GL-Dread cases are internally constructed of dense EPS foam and the exterior is covered in 600-denier ballistic material. The interior of the Gator GL-Dread is covered in soft plush and the foam creates support for the neck. There are two pockets for all your gear. The Gator GL-Dread's carrying handle is of parachute nylon webbing plus a comfortable shoulder strap.

Only spent 10 bucks on my first purchase, but you treated me as if was spending a grand. Being an independent business owner, I know all to well the importance of dedicated customer service which is the best way to win over the corporate chains. Tootsie Rolls always win me over too. I'm sure some much bigger purchases are in our future.
