Gator GWE-ACOU-3/4 Hard shell Acoustic Case

If you value protection over portability, this is the case for you. Check dimensions carefully - I did, and it fits the 3/4 size Spanish guitar I bought it for very snugly. The lining is lovely, there's a handy compartment for tuners, spare strings, picks etc, and the case is sturdy enough to survive children. It is not, however, exactly light. I mean it's light for what it is, but it's not casually-sling-it-accross-your-back light, nor does it have a shoulder strap, nor is the handle particularly comfortable. But it will protect your instrument very well.

So today I received this guitar case. The case is good quality, latches are good protection is good the inside of it is good... however the one i received was damaged. On that morning about 2 hours after receiving the item I sent it back to Amazon via Hermes free of charge to a one-stop pick up point. It's 23:05 pm and I've already got my refund from Amazon. Same day refund. Overall the case is great I just got unlucky.

I own a turn of the 20th century parlour guitar which I rebuilt a few years ago. Beautiful but small body with lovely tone. I needed a solid case for travel this year. (I have a case already which is fine but big.)I measured and re-measured the guitar to compare with the measurements shown for the case and ordered it. It arrived and to my surprise it fit perfectly! I was very pleased. VERY PLEASED!The quality of the build and fittings (hinges, latches, lock and handle) are all first rate. The inner lining and padding fit around the guitar snugly but are not tight. The total package is Excellent Quality...and superb value for money. It feels solid and I feel will protect the guitar very well.Let's hope the airlines don't test it to hard. I've had excellent good baggage experience so let's hope it continues.Thanks Gator, thanks Amazon.

Bought to protect a Fender ESC80 3/4 size classical guitar. Perfect and excellent value. Case is heavier than a gig bag because it is a solid construction obviously. It is no heavier than other hard shell cases. This will offer far more protection over the life of the instrument for about the same price as a sturdy gigbag.Tips: Always measure your guitar before purchasing a case. If your guitar is a looser fit pad it out with some bubble wrap, towelling or foam.

This case is very nice (especially for the price point that it's at). It fits my Baby Taylor. It's not a snug fit and smaller cases that fit one may possibly be available (see clearance around headstock in photo). The case is well padded. There is about a half inch clearance around the body of my Baby Taylor when it's in this case. It is, however, sufficiently padded that the guitar will be safe even with that clearance. Also, if you use a padded strap that will fit in fine. I'm assuming it will survive the flight I am taking in on, it sure feels like it will, I will update this review if it doesn't.
