I was worried the "dreadnought" size would be too big for my grand auditorium D'Angelico guitar, but it fits perfectly.

Nice wood cases are what’s expected in high end guitars. In today’s rising manufactures costs coupled with shipping Gator has filled an excellent niche with a case that rivals the best USA or Canada case manufactures. Then add free shipping and it’s a complete WIN at these prices with boutique quality.

Seems to be well constructed. Solidly built with excellent materials. Padding sufficiently cradles a bass guitar providing a good level of protection. Got to say this thing is massive compared to a standard guitar case. Classic looks, time will tell in regard to longevity.

I only knew about this case cuz o my short-scale semi-hollow arch-top BASS - the manufacturer said this is the ONLY case that'll fit it properly. Wow ... one option !!! So, I hadta pop for it. As soon as I open it, it began to exceed my expectations. I wanted tweed - the pics don't do it justice - it's gorgeous !!! It's a kinda oatmeal color, paired w/dark-chocolate-brown leather trim & patinaed brass hardware - it screams vintage !!! So I opened it - lush royal blue velvet - beautimous !!! Now, will the bass fit ??? Like a glove. Top quality foams, thick cushioning & a support for the angled headstock. The wood frame & panels are stout & it closes up & latches shut like a bank vault. The 'bubble' on the top-side accommodates the arched tops of the '335' body styles & adds a bitto 'Cool' factor. My '335' also fits nicely, so this BAD BOY will be seeing double-duty. It has exceeded my expectations !!!

Overall satisfied for the money.Fits my LTD (ESP) 6 string Bass with only a tiny bit of wiggle room. I was more concerned it would be too small for this bass so just a little bit of room is a relief. I might add a bit of extra padding but for taking it back and forth to church it isn’t going to be an issue.The style is exactly what I wanted. I didn’t find anything even close in this price range. The other tweed-type option was a vinyl and not even real fabric material.Hardware looks sturdy enough for its purpose but I wouldn’t expect it to handle any abuse. I have a suspicion that the metal will become weaker with age. Feels like what my grandpa called “pot metal”.The only defect I found was that some of the glue on the trim didn’t adhere and lifts up. (See pictures) I’m going to run a bead of hot glue under there and stick it back down and I think it should hold just fine.For storage and transport that is prettier than a plain black box this feels like a good case.

ES335にサイズピッタリでした。値段のわりには外装もふかふかの内装もしっかりしていて、リーズナブルだと思います。白い外装で汚れやすいかもしれませんので、丁寧に使おうとおもっています。

I just received this case. Very poor quality. As you can see on the pictures, the clamps are put on crooked, hardly can close it (Pic 2), the seem quality is horrible (pic1) and the cloth on the case is really thin and several places you can see the cardboard (pic3). I'm very disappointed. I don't know how they can sell something so bad quality as this. DO NOT BUY THIS case. I feel ripped off. I would have to pay a ton of money to ship it back. Paid $139 for it. Worth about $30

This case is almost as beautiful as the guitar I put in it!I've had an old Chinese made Ibanez Artcore for about 15 years now and finally decided it was time to get a hard shell case for it. But, I didn't want to spend more on the case than I did the guitar.This case is not only an awesome value for the money, it is also VERY good looking. It has a great classic look. The inside has padding in all the right places for a Semi-Hollow body (behind the neck to body union).It holds my Ibanez fairly well (it can flop inside just a bit if jolted), and looks absolutely great.The case is very well made. It is tough and very easy to use (it opens right up and closes back without having to force anything).I highly recommend for anybody wanting a great looking, sturdy case for their Semi-Hollow Body.

Bought this for my Epiphone Casino and it's a very snug fit, to the point where I have to squish the guitar in to make it fit. The case also doesn't close the way it should. I have to adjust the case to get it to latch on the way it should and it creaks when I'm carrying it, making me worry about how secure it truly is in the case. I really wanted this case to work because I love the vintage look to it but for $140 I could use that money to buy a better quality case in which my guitar will fit perfectly and be more secure.

ヤマハ純正のFS用ケースが廃盤になっていたのでこちらを買いました。ヤマハ少し古いモデルですが普通にFS７２０S入りました。ケースのデザインはとても好きですが、欠点としてはとても重いことです。持ち歩き続けるのは困難な重さです。作りも頑丈かもしれませんが持ち手の金具部分等はちょっと頼りない感じの造りです。とはいえ私の場合はこれで電車に乗ったりする予定はなく、宅配便での配送時や自家用車に載せての移動だけですのでそれ用としては満足です。

This case looks AMAZING in person, and I'll admit that I purchased primarily for it's unique vintage good looks to protect my DEAN COLT Semi-Hollowbody Hybrid Guitar, and it absolutely fits like it was made specifically for that guitar. I've owned several Gator cases over the years, and their quality has always been top notch. I like the shallow design; no need for towels or small pillows underneath, unless you've got a Tele or Strat style guitar, and the truth is, this case isn't designed for those types. It's sturdy without being too heavy, and the padding is more than adequate for my needs, since I don't have any Roadies throwing around my gear, plus I really like the Wow Factor of the royal blue color. My experience has been that a properly fitting case, is one that insures that the headstock doesn't ever come close to touching the bottom of the case, ever. Many necks are broken this way, and this case has headstock room to spare. The bronze colored hardware even has a vintage patina look to it, is sturdy and the case locks up tight. I highly recommend this case if you have a GIBSON 335 STYLE GUITAR. Best of all, it just looks so very cool......
