Liked the Matt Tuck Jackson.

Interesting that according to the vid it ships "with an SKB hardcase".  Some of the other Japanese Jacksons inexplicably don't come with a case - OK, an SL3 would fit in most strat cases but WHY would anyone pay >£700 for an RR24 or a Phil Demmel KV then stuff it in a gigbag?!?  A case to fit either of them properly would be very hard (& expensive) to find....

I guess the alternative would be to sell it at 50 quid more and include a case. In my experience, 700 range guitars have good gig bags (PRS SE gig bags rule!) and from 1000+ or so they come in cases. I rather prefer more guitar and less case for the money, as I always use my PRS gig bag for any guitar (it's so handy as a back pack).

Hmmm they said nothing about the Rob Cavestany signature, maybe it's not happening.

Like I said, that's all very well for a "normal" shape guitar, but a case that properly fits something like a Rhoads or King V isn't exactly easy to find.

You really need a case as it's easy to damage all those pointy bits... :)

Those new Bugeras are quite stunning btw, they have a real 60s/70s hard rock vibe !!!!!

the old ones are great too in a more modern way... i've got a 333XL and it's exceptionally versatile and powerful, for a ridiculous price!
