Do you have cases for all your guitars?

[Top-L]

I just made an un-sexy case purchase, because I have a few guitars now without a dedicated case. Got me thinking about the guitar/case ratio.

The particular guitar in question is a LTD neck-through that surprisingly doesn't fit in any of my other strat cases because the neck joint doesn't let it sit flat in my other molded cases.

With this new case, I will be short only two cases.

Always a case. Had a few that didn't that, one I got off Marketplace and another at a garage sale, but they were cheapies. My good ones all have cases.

Only one doesn't have a case my Washburn AB10 acoustic bass. It is such an oddball it is hard to find a case for it that doesn't break the bank. I only paid $70 for the bass. Everything else even the mandolin has a hardshell case. Most of them are the OEM cases when I can find them.

Still missing a couple. I want one for my Schecter C7 and I lost the nice gig bag that came with my Steinberger in the basement flood last year. A couple of the NPCs don't have cases either, but that's ok. Everything else important is accounted for.

I had to get a separate case for my Schecter E1 because the neck angle was just different enough from my Gibson Explorer that it couldn't share the case, so I feel the unsexy purchase woes.

None of my guitars have a hard case and it's I finally really noticed it the other day

I kind of want to put my Jazzmaster away somewhere out of the way for a while, I'm not using it as much, gathers a lot of dust!

Wish I had a hard case for it

Used to have a bass gig bag for it, but hard cases feel expensive! None of my guitars came with cases

everything has a case and a strap. some are nice gig bags, some are hardshell.

 

[beaubrummels]

Yes

I prefer gigbags most of the time. I used to buy a dozen at a time from Phitz cases. In some cases, I have hard cases and gigbags. I always have empty hard cases and gigbags around because I buy and sell on the regular. That way a customer gets what he wants, and if I buy something with no case - I just bring a gigbag to fit it.

Does the box it came in count?

 

[Mincer]

Some of mine have a hard case and a gig bag. Sometimes the hard case is too big and bulky to carry around to quick gigs, so I just use a gig bag. They are lighter and take up less room in the car.

 

[Phantasmagoria]

I mostly have gig bags, but they're all decent quality.

Hard case & gig bag for my BC Rich Ironbird Pro & a few more hard cases for my pricier guitars. Some came with them & some I bought them for..

 

[solspirit]

Only for half of them.

 

[playas]

Most have a case. A few years ago I picked up a couple of guitar sleeves so that I could keep everything safely and also have something lighter/more comfortable for carrying them if needed.

 

[Hsb]

All my guitars have a case of some sort, my Iceman came with a hard case, my bass came with a rigid soft case and the other two have gig bags.

I bought one of the gig bags specifically because we are moving, today actually, and didnt want to put in the back of my car without some sortof protection

 

[ehdwuld]

I have about 5 LP shaped guitars and three hard shell cases for them
I have bags for some
on my small Ehdwuld branded headless I have three bags and five guitars
my Censtar and Grote came with nice bags
all my acoustics have bags or cases

 

[Chistopher]

A case or a gig bag for all of them except my Mustang. Turns out I don't have a single case that's long enough to fit it

 

[jeremy]

arent mustangs short? seems like a weird issue

 

[ehdwuld]

arent mustangs short? seems like a weird issue

the headstock to strap pin is longer on the Duo Sonic and Mustang
I had the same issue trying to find a case for a Duo Sonic

 

[BeKindRewind]

cases for the "nice ones" and a closet full of gig bags for everything else. so many gig bags. the boon of having lots of parties at my house back in the day

 

[Securb]

Still missing a couple. I want one for my Schecter C7.

I got a nice case for my Schecter Omen 7 at Music Mill for $50. They have a bunch of orphaned hardshell cases in the basement.
