    I ship expensive guitars regularly and this is a must have. To many horror stories trying to do an insurance claim. This basically takes the "danger" out of transporting your guitar. Well made great product.

    A must have for your beloved Gibson, whether you travel or keep it as a case queen. I'm no longer scared to tour my 335, this thing is robust and ingenious. It's a must have for any 3+3 style guitar.

    If you are taking your guitar out of the house for any reason, consider one of these. Totally worth taking the time to install in order to avoid any headstock mishaps! If you're a bit klutzy at home…leave it on there too…won't do anything but keep things safe.

  • Worth the price of admission

    The Atlas C1 is the only word in guitar travel protection. Fits all of my guitars, though it does need extra space in the case. I prefer to use a quality gigbag. If I were to ship a high end guitar, it's definitely worth the hassle of sending the C1 along with, and having the buyer return it.

  • Peace of mind!

    If you travel with your guitar you might not worry about it …until you experience your first break. Fixing a headstock break is stressful and soooo expensive. This gadget is extremely affordable "insurance" against breaks. Well worth it!
