    • Well built and perfect fit
Style: Triple O Acoustic Pattern Name: Guitar
Review Image by Hank Raine Hank Raine
This case is a perfect fit for my Martin 000-15SM which came with a soft case. The soft cases are lightweight which is a plus but they don’t provide the protection of a hard case. The soft case also uses a zipper which makes it harder to get into versus using latches. This Gator case is built well with 5 latches; one is keyed. There were no defects. It has a roomy compartment for picks, capos and tuners. The area below the headstock has plenty of room for the strap. I’m surprised at how good this case is for this price. The interior lining is very soft and cushy. I highly recommend this case for 000 guitars, especially the 000-15SM! ... show more

    • Great product
Style: 6/12 String Dreadnought Pattern Name: Guitar
Great case, I have bought several of these over the years for different guitars and they hold up. They are durable with solid latches and great interior padding. I highly recommend Gator cases.

    • Despite some surprises, it protects my guitar and is a good value for the money.
Style: 6/12 String Dreadnought Pattern Name: Guitar
I received this about six weeks ago and it's been fine. It's sturdy and attractively built. It's a bit heavy, but it's made of wood and you can expect that. When the case arrived, I understood immediately why some reviewers complained about damage to their cases. It was packed in a large rectangular box with no cushioning in it whatsoever. During shipping, the case would just have bounced around the shipping box. I was lucky there was no damage. The case was a little difficult to open it the first time because one of the latches was stuck. A quick twist with a screwdriver took care of the problem and it's worked perfectly since. The inside of the case is very nice. It's well padded and fits my 12-string guitar perfectly. Some reviewers have complained that their case didn't match the advertised measurements, but I found my case to be correctly sized. The storage compartment is large and can hold what I need it to hold. Overall, I'm happy with the case and found it to be a good value for the money. ... show more

    • Fit a 3/4 guitar fine

My old 3/4 small sized guitar had been sitting in my closet for a while, getting in my way, and I wanted to be able to protect it from dust as well as be able to stack it on a shelf without damaging it. A hard case seemed like a much better solution than the other soft cases for this. The price was a bit high for my taste. I wish there were some cheaper hard case options but this seemed like the best option out there. The inside of the case is very nice and soft, with a convenient compartment to store a tuner etc. It has 3 clasps on one side and 1 clasp on the other. The middle of the three clasps has a lock on it. So while outside of the case to me looks like pleather that will degrade over time, the description says it's Tolex PVC which is supposed to be very durable and waterproof. I don't know yet about the longevity but I do see a lot of damaged photos in other reviews so I feel skeptical. Maybe it takes a really hard beating to damage the case but I am not sure. We'll see how it holds up over time. I'm really not too concerned personally as I just want it to be protected and don't care about scuffs. One last concern is the warning on another review that a chemical on this can cause cancer. I assume that it's probably some kind of fire retardant chemical. I'm hoping the exposure will be minimal as it will sit in the back of a closet and I think that many other things we're already exposed to have this chemical like mattresses etc. But I kind of wish they'd put this warning more prominently in the description. Overall the case looks nice. It does the job. I might have bought a different one if I'd noticed the cancer warning though. ... show more

    • Survived an accidental drop out of a moving car!
Style: Classical Pattern Name: Guitar
If you want a reliable & protective case, this one is fantastic. I bought this to protect my $1400 Alhambra classical. Just recently, the tailgate on the Chevy Suburban I was driving malfunctioned and opened in traffic as I was accelerating at a stop light. The Gator case flew out of the car (Suburban's are pretty high off the ground too) and landed flat on the pavement ~12-15 feet away. Fortunately, the car behind us did not run it over! Anyways, after retrieving the case, I found that the guitar was completely unharmed, and furthermore, it was still in tune! The only casualty in this accident was a broken metal foot on the bottom of the case. I contacted Gator to see if they could send me a link to purchase a replacement foot, and instead customer support is replacing my case! It's one thing to purchase a great case for a great price, but when customer support goes above and beyond like this (very quick responding too), I have to say that Gator has really exceeded my expectations! Furthermore, I just realized that this case has a LIFETIME warranty to the original purchaser! What a GREAT thing to see a company stand like this behind the products. This is my 3rd Gator case that I have purchased over the years, and I think Gator will now always be my first choice! ... show more

    • Good Case
Style: Triple O Acoustic Pattern Name: Guitar
This case fits my Martin OM-style guitar perfectly. It seems to be very sturdy and should protect my guitar well for years to come. It's a bit on the heavy side, but I expect that from a plywood case. The interior has a thick plush lining and a good-size compartment in the bulkhead between the body and headstock sections. The headstock section has plenty of room for me to leave the electronic tuner attached. The only thing that prevents me from giving it 5 stars is that there are 5 latches that need to be opened or closed when taking the guitar in and out instead of 3, as on most cases. Maybe all those latches make it stronger or more secure, I don't know. I only know that if you take the guitar in and out of its case a lot, those extra latches get a little annoying. Certainly not a show-stopper, but annoying just the same. At least for me. I do, however, like the fact that the latch near the handle has a lock built into it. Overall, this seems to be a quality case at a good price and I would have no problem recommending it to anyone less easily annoyed than I. ... show more
