This is the one alot of manufacturers use inc. Ernie Ball.

We use Hiscox and I can personally recommend them.
They are really good, especially as they are lightweight too.

We have ours made with our own logo - cool eh?

Yes - Davey will be on my stand helping out - It will be a busy time so he may have to work hard but I have promised that I will let him have a wander to look at stuff at some point during the weekend, but it will be good to have him on the stand - come and say Hi if you come to the show

wait.. i'll have to work? :o

LOL. just kidding hehe
i'm glad to lend a hand and i'll do my best. :D i just cant wait to spend some time with you folks! \m/

i'll probably go for the skb case. wait and see if someone will stock the ones with the new latches.

or if anyone knows an online store in germany or uk, that stocks the hiscox cases, i'd apretiate it

I am fecking fed up with lil ppl. knowing everything by 'look'ing on the internet or in shop windows. But LIFE will sort it ALL out in the end ;) I need to do/say nothing to help Darwin :)

Davey, thomann seem cheapest on 'route'66. If SKB66 is different found french store showing 114 euro. But none showing the new TSA latches. May need to email some as probably not updating their sites spec. to show latch change.

If I had I wouldn't have said "look" ;)

Anyway, surely with something like this, looking can do alot - For example, bigger cases will have more padding, and probably a thicker shell.
