  • Works for a Jackson Rhoads
Style: Extreme
I have a Jackson Rhoads JS32RR. For about a week for a case that wasn’t going to break my budget and this one was it. I don’t know if I would trust to take it traveling everywhere but for Storage at home it seems safe and it is budget friendly.

  • It doesen't just drop in, you will have to press it in to the corners and make it fit
Style: Extreme
It fits a Dime Washburn, but you will have to press it in to the corners and make it fit. It doesen't just drop in, but I am satisfied. I'm sure after being stored for a little while, it will fit like it was made for it.

  • Almost perfect
Style: Electric
This is a nice pretty case, it looks good. My only problem is it came with the corner was worn and cracked. I would have returned it, but I needed a case a few days later.

  • SOLID STYROFOAM! ...behind the liner. = ABSOLUTELY "NO FLEXIBILITY"!
Style: Bass
Case has solid styrofoam behind the liner which "doesn't allow ANY flexibility" like most other case manufacturers. I was thoroughly shocked and disappointed as your guitar MUST BE THE EXACT MEASUREMENTS or less to fit. QUOTE FROM DESCRIPTION: "carrying case for musicians who tend to "stay close to home". Constructed out of "heavy‐duty plywood and encased in a thick layer of Tolex PVC plastic (NOT), the GWE‐BASS is both sleek and sturdy-(NOT) as well as moisture‐resistant. Plush black fabric lines the interior, offering a soft, luxurious cradle for your instrument and cushioning against minor bumps and bruises." lol - Such a used car-salesman line of BS." UNBELIEVABLE! The so-called interior padding around the inside of the case is HARD-STYROFOAM!!! ...and the plywood is thin and highly flexible!!! Don't drop it on anything! Just falling from the end to the flat side onto something hard at the floor will probably cause minor damage to your bass guitar. Drop it off a truck, the edge of the stage, or on the stairs? ...NO WAY! Your guitar will get damaged. ...and it's CERTAINLY NOT A FLIGHT CASE as someone posted. If your guitar isn't exactly the size of the interior or less, forget it! "So-called interior padding does not have any flexibility whatsoever" ! It's HARD DENSE STYROFOAM like used for shipping guitars! You can't compress it to form to your guitar. I've NEVER seen such a design!!! Words can not describe the shock when I received this case for an Electric Bass Guitar (GWE-BASS) as well as the ABS Molded Case for Extra Long Electric Guitars!!! HARD STYROFOAM "SO-CALLED" PADDING UNDER THE INTERIOR CLOTH!!! ...ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?! RETURNED BOTH THIS GWE-BASS CASE “AND” THE EXTRA LONG ELECTRIC GUITAR CASE I PURCHASED. After this I'll NEVER buy another Gator case again! -- You don't even get what you pay for. Don't assume you'll get the industry standard for inside case padding! -- Once burnt, twice shy. ... show more
