    I bought the copper version because it felt great. Then I bought this steel version because I liked the look. I was going to trade in the copper one for this one, but it felt very different. I did not like the feel so I kept the copper version.

    Which hard case would you recommend for this guitar?

    The Gator GW-JM RESO Journeyman Resonator Guitar Wood Case would work well. Otherwise, the Gretsch Guitars G2180 Resonator Gig Bag would also be a good choice.
