Fits PRS style guitar nearly perfectly

I purchased this item as I had a mid 2000s PRS custom that was without a case--no case, no use for gigs. I had been looking around quite a bit at other cases, but a friend recommended this one AND it happened to be on sale. The case measurements listed gave me a slight pause, and it looked like it would be snug around the lower body width. However, I took the chance and purchased it as it was on sale. Upon receiving it, I placed the guitar in case and it fits great. Even the trem arm can fit inside one of the neck pockets! The neck of the case has two pockets, one on either side of the neck, which for my purposes works well. It would be difficult to fit anything bigger than a standard boss-style pedal in it, but that is what the pedalboard is for:) The space for the headstock is broad as well. The case has 2 outer zippered pockets, fitting small items and an instrument cable. The foam and nylon seems strong. As far as durability, only time will tell how long the case will last, but I'm not a touring musician--I play every other weekend, with occasional trips for gigs here and there. If I was a touring musician, I would probably spend a whole lot more. However, for 50 bones (on sale), I'm satisfied.

You get what you pay for

1. The lid won't stay open on it's own. This means you have to use one had to hold open the lid and the other hand to put in / remove items. This eats up my time as I can't use both hands to do what I need to do, because one of my hands is holding the lid open. 2. The storage doors inside of this case get in the way of closing the lid. And, because the inside of this case is all black, in a dark music venue it's hard to see when the door is open, so you go to close the lid and the door is open, you have to wrestle with the door and the lid to get it to close in one shot. Again this eats up my time because I don't always have two hands to use to wrestle with the case. 3. The lid to the case is only held closed by a zipper that basically zips around the entire length of the case. The zipper is flimsy and gets stuck more times than not. Also, this is the only way to keep the case closed, there is no lip thingy to keep it closed. When I remove my guitar, I have to find a place to set my guitar down (which I don't like doing), go back to the case, wrestle with the zippers, and make sure the case is closed. Then go back to my guitar (hope it hasn't "walked off") and continue. If there were some type of lip flap with a snap you could grab your guitar with one hand and snap close this lip flap with the other and go. Once more this eats into my time at a gig. Time that other people are waiting on me. Those people don't like to wait and I don't like to waste time on a poorly designed case. 4. No lock, and no way to add a lock. Nothing to attach a bike lock to. This one is self-explanatory. Don't use this for a gig because it will walk off. Do you want to take that chance with a $1200 one of a kind guitar passed down to you by your great-grandfather? Uh. no. Use this "case" (which to me is a stretch) for going to and from guitar lessons, neighborhood jams, or anywhere that you trust everyone. This case is not designed to be used by professional working guitarists.

    What a disgrace of packaging! Looked horrible. Makes me want to take my business else where. Wish I would have taken pictures of the mess GC actually let out of their hands! I vote with my money and GC Lost this election big time!

    These cases are the best, they are extremely light when most others are rather heavy yet they are very durable & well made to protect your guitar. I would prefer to have one of these cases for all my guitars.

  • Nice case for the price

    Picked this up to protect my FireFly FFTH when I take it on trips or lessons. The case does not stay open on its own, but who cares. It is super light and will protect my FFTH just fine. There is also lots of storage in it for whatever you might need.

  • Nice case! Light and protective

    Light and protective. I am happy with this case. I also like that there are two small compartments inside plus zipper pocket on outside. Lots of storage.

  • Would buy again, indefinitely.

    Perfect for storing your guitar. Much lighter than a solid plastic and metal case, but I certainly feel my guitar is protected in it.

  • Excellent quality. Bought for my Gibson SG guitar. Lite also

    Nice fit and durable. Zippers are good quality. Would buy again if needed for my Les Paul and Strats.
