Review: Good Product - Cannot fault this product, it is heavy and strongly built and it feels like my guitar is being well protected. It is large enough to cater for most Dreadnoughts as well as the body of the guitar has plenty room without sliding around inside. It has a small compartment for holding little things like your guitar tuner or spare strings under the neck which is handy and has enough room for my music material to fit underneath the body of the guitar when the case is closed. I mainly travel with it in my car so it maybe a bit heavy for even small journeys unless you have your own transport. I also like the fact that it has metal studs on the bottom so that it can sit upright on its own which makes it easier to store in any type of room without having to lie it down or lean it against something heavy. Looks good as well in case anyone is interested.
Review: Perfect! - exactly what I needed, perfect for when I am travelling. a good sturdy case, perfect fit and has good secure lock clips on it
