binky_bass Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) Hey guys, Heres a nice and quite pimp-ish acoustic hardcase from the late 1970's (I believe!) Its a wood construction, real quality case lined with a bright red and very plush fur to protect your guitar. Its got a Crocodile skin faux leather very convincing effect to the outside, to be honest, with it being from the 70's i guess it could actually be REAL croc skin... but I'd prefer to just list it as 'faux' as I don't know! It has the 2 original keys for the lock on the latch closest to the handle. All latches are fine and the handle is very solid! The price is £45 and I'll cover the £10 postage fee too, If you want to collect it from Wickford, Essex, then I'd probably let it go for a little under £40. Its in great condition for its age, and is better made than a lot of cases I've had in the past, so I think the price is very fair! Check out the pics. (the white effect on the red lining is just photo glare, the inside is 100% spot on and all BRIGHT RED!!) Russ.

guzzibass Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I was wondering if it would fit my Gretsch - would need to be approx 16" and at least 3" depth...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
