Case for CSF1M

By Sweetwater Customer

I recently bought a used Yamaha CSF1M, and the original gig bag smelled terrible. Unfortunately Yamaha does not sell the gig bag separately. I found this case recommended a few places and decided to give it a try. I wanted another nice padded gig bag for the weight, but this hard case cost less than several of the gig bag options I was considering. I wish there was more depth where the body goes as it's a very snug fit, but I'm hoping it will compress with time. The quality of the case is great.

Quality case; exceptional service

By Farrah G. from Tennessee
Music Background: Non-musical parent of little musicians

We bought a Fender FA-15, locally, for my son several years ago. We ruined all of the zippers on the travel bag, and I finally got around to buying a hard case for it several months ago. My only regret is not getting the hard case sooner! My son (9) loves the case and gives it 5-stars. His instructor validated the choice. Fast forward 3 months. The case still looks brand new. I missed a call last week, but was left a voicemail from Sweetwater, following-up on our purchase and offering assistance for any guitar needs. Those kinds of phone calls are rare these days! We will definitely purchase future accessories from Sweetwater…you don't get that kind of service from an online warehouse.

Lots of protection for little money

By Sal from TPA
Music Background: Passionate about my instruments

The case was too small for the guitar I wanted it for. It was a great case and another guitar fit in it instead. It was such a good quality for the money I kept it and ordered a new larger one. I already had two cases for the other guitar…so that may say a lot about the quality of this one. Fits perfect for a 1965 Martin tenor

Fits Gretsch 9220 resonator

By Damon G. from COLORADO SPRINGS, CO

Needed a case for my 9220 resonator, and this fits great. I was a bit nervous of how the top of the case presses against the top of resonator, so I squished some of the padding in the lid to reduce some pressure. I'm not sure that was fully necessary, but it makes me feel better. Great customer service at Sweetwater.

Exceeded my expectations

By John from Maine
Music Background: Banjo player for 60+ years. Guitar player not so much.

I bought this for my new Guild OM-120 because I didn't like the gigbag that the Guild came with (it was sized for a dread). The case was delivered within days and is flawless. In addition it fits my OM-120 like it was made for it. The fit it snug, and perfect, just like a case is supposed to fit. Guild should be supplying this case instead of the oversized gigbag which they currently do.

Yamaha CSF3M perfect fit

By Tristan C. from EASTHAMPTON, MA

This fits my Yamaha CSF3M perfectly. It's also not too heavy, which I appreciate. I can't speak to anything else about it until I use it for a while, but just thought I should report these things.

Perfect!

By Gawry from NY

I was figuring out how to ship my son's guitar Yamaha CSF-TA since the product discontinued and there was no case available for it (checked with Yamaha as well). I put in a request at Sweetwater and Mitch Dazey reached out through mail. I had further questions and he patiently replied to all my questions. Went ahead and bought the case, it is a perfect fit! The case looks good, durable and hard shelled (though it's made out of wood). Most probably, my son should be able to fly with this. Thank You Mitch!

Fits perfectly

By Dave S.

Folks with antique parlor guitars know how hard it is to find a case that actually fits their instrument . I stumbled across this case while browsing Sweetwater and while I first was put off by its listing as for "3/4 size guitars," I decided to open the link. Thanks to Sweetwater's photo showing the exact inside and outside measurements for all the critical dimensions, I bought it. It fits my 1902-built Washburn parlor perfectly. Good quality, reasonably priced and quickly shipped. Use the photo dimensions. They were correct. It might work for you, too.

Great case

By Dr. A. from Western PA
Music Background: Singer-songwriter for over 50 years.

I was on a 5,000 mile drive and wanted to bring along a guitar. I decided on taking a 3/4 size Martin. I have a really nice gig bag for it; however, I was concerned that it might get crushed by all the stuff that I was bringing with me. The case is excellent and my guitar is safe and happy.

If it fits, you must acquit!!

By David R. from St. Louis

Or 'buy IT' After an initial mishap when I used the Case Finder app and it lead me to the wrong case (more likely Cordoba's fault than the case finder) I talked to a salesman and ordered the right case. My guitar fits the 2nd case, it's snug and all is well.

Gator 3/4 size guitar case

By Sweetwater Customer

I 'll be using this for one of my builds, a "parlor" model. I took the outline from plans from a Lyon & Healy model from the early 1900's. The case seems well enough constructed and should last a good while.

Wonderful!

By Valerie from Cuba Ny
Music Background: None. Lol. But all my children are musical and 2 of them play guitar.

Just got this in the mail! I ordered it as a gift for my son. I called to ask questions on the fit and if they thought it would fit his guitar. They were great! They even called and left a message to check to see if I had anymore questions. I got it and it fits amazingly! It's so nice on the inside too! I love this company and highly recommend them!

Parlor guitar sized case

By Karl from Cape Cod
Music Background: Gigging bassist and luthier

I build Parlor sized guitars fashioned after a Lyon and Healy parlor guitar from the 1920's. It's hard to find a case that will work for the small dimensions of the Parlors, but these Gator 3/4 sized guitar cases are just about perfect for my needs. My guitars are somewhat narrow at the lower bout so there is about 1" "wiggle room" in the lower bout, but because the case is so well made and nicely padded, I am not concerned about that little bet of extra room. I'll be back for more.

Smaller guitar than I thought

By Cliff

Nice price on this solid case for 3/4 size guitar. It fits, but the guitar is truly smaller than this case. Without the strap as extra padding, the guitar would slide in this well-made, beautiful case. Extra room for soft stuff!

Meets my travel needs

By Joseph W. from New Castle
Music Background: Total amateur

I have a 3/4-size Fender FA-Series (FA-15), and the case is a good fit. I wish the case were a hair deeper. My guitar sits slightly higher than the edge of the case, but the interior fleece and foam padding allows the lid to close and latch, holding the guitar very securely in place. There is padding everywhere the strings, guitar body, and neck touch the the case. The only place without padding--just fleece lining--is around the headstock, which never touches the case anyway. The way I use this travel guitar--boat, car, plane--the case should perform well. Sturdy and well made. (Fender FA-15: maximum guitar depth at the bottom bout = 3-3/4", maximum depth from the back of the bottom bout to the top of the strings = 4-1/8".)

Case is barely 4" deep....

By A.Z. from Wisonsin
Music Background: Lifelong.

A year or two ago I bought the smallest 3/4 size guitar that Sweetwater had - an Ibanez, which is barely 4 inches deep, yet it was too deep for the case! The inside depth of the case itself was the same or less. I had to force the lid closed. No good. Sent it back. Too bad.

Gator 3/4 size Guitar Case

By Lou R. from Woodbridge, Va

I bought this case over 5 years ago for my Cargo carbon fiber guitar. It has accompanied me on many trips to gigs in China and Europe in the cargo hold of various airlines, with no issues. Takes a licking and keeps on ticking. I recently purchased another case for my brother who also travels a lot with his Cargo guitar.Quality and price, hard to beat, and did I mention the best customer service in the industry.

Just What I Needed

By Mk

Needed a case for a Pignose PP-259 guitar as Pignose doesn't make a hard case for them. Chris at Sweetwater once again came to the rescue, scoped out this case AND guided me through making sure my foam and velvet case modifications fit the Pignose perfectly. Happiness. Thx, Chris! Thx, Sweetwater!

Better take measurements before you buy

By Gary from Seattle

this guitar will fit a small guitar like a Martin LX-1 perfectly, but anything with a body depth more than the
depth of an LX-1 is going to be a VERY tight fit because the guitar sits too high in this case. I bought mine used, got it home and my 1930's parlor guitar did not fit the depth of the case---it sat too high and the case top was coming down to tight on the top---which could lead to damage to the guitar. Fortunately,
my LX-1 will find a home in it.

The build of the case is superior, but the depth is NOT deep enough for most parlor guitars.

A great case.

By Dennis from Florida
Music Background: Luthier

This is a very nice case. It fits the copies of the 1830's parlor guitar I build perfectly. They are snug and secure and the four latches close it tight. The padded interior is really nice. This is the fourth case I have used for this design because it works well and fits the guitar better than any other case.
