This case looks and feels like it could drop out of an airplane and my 12-string would still be in tune!

Great Case

I purchased this case for my D-55 Guild guitar. A great guitar deserves a great case and this is a dandy.

The handle has a great grip and the case is lighter than the case that came with the guitar originally and much better quality. I would highly recommend this case for any gigging musician who wants the ultimate protection for their guitar. close [-]

There is the typical storage area in the middle of the case under the neck which easily accommodates a couple of set of strings, capo, picks, etc. Highly recommended (thanks Andy). close [-]

The only downside is that the case tends to fall... read more [+] down when it is stood upright. Nothing major, just don't expect it to stay upright by itself. close [-]

Cool case, but doesn't fit a D28.

Got this case. It looked great. Solid build, good quality. I was disappointed to see that it was actually too big (by about 2 inches) around the body of my guitar. My guitar is a mid 90's Martin H... read more [+]D-28- The most quintessential dreadnought out there... Wishing SKB had different sizes or had built them to fit the most dreadnought-ish dreadnought out there.

3 stars= solid case, but not a good fit for me. close [-]

From the customer service call after my order, to e-mailing me a copy of the invoice, to the great price, free shipping and candy in the box...a pleasure!
