Vintage looks with modern reliability

The Journeyman's traditionally constructed multi-ply wood shell keeps your banjo safe and sound. The light beige, pebble weave, burlap-covered exterior accented by deep brown espresso trim hearkens back to the class and elegance of another era. Antique brass hardware and lockable latches have the patina you'd find on a vintage case without the rust and rot. On the inside, your instrument lays in pillow-soft luxury surrounded by plush, royal blue crushed velvet, ensuring your case will never be responsible for finish scratches. For added convenience, you'll find an accessory compartment nestled inside the case for extra banjo picks and strings. With its elegant, classic styling and traditional construction of the Journeyman Deluxe case is sure to win the favor of delta blues-men and appalachian pickers alike.

Beautiful

Really enjoy the classic look of this banjo case. I thought the outside looked good from the photos alone but it's even better in person, not to mention the inside is such a gorgeous blue. the interior storage has plenty of room for my extra strings, tuner, hand picks and even hand cream for my callouses. Only thing holding it back from being the perfect case is there's not really any way to attach a strap for over the shoulder carrying, but I can live with that as most of my travelling with my banjo is just getting it in and out of the car

Good Quality, Cool Aesthetic

This case is definitely the high quality I've come to expect from Gator's higher-end products. It's sturdy, and not only that, it looks really cool with is burlap finish and brown trim.

My only complaint is that it didn't perfectly fit my banjo, but considering my banjo is a vintage from a brand that I've never heard of that belonged to my grandfather, that's not a fault of the case. And for now, it gets the job done and I have no complaints.

Excellent Banjo case

This case is of excellent construction with outstanding features that truly treasure and nuture your banjo. Very classy looking. Comes with extra padding to protect your instrument and a built in keyed lock.
Also purchased the matching Gator Journeyman Deluxe Wood Case for my Resonator - also excellent & outstanding.
Sweetwater takes steps to insure that their products come in well constructed packaging that protect their products. Packed by caring fellow musicians.
