Guitar case problem

Hey guys I'm getting a custom Rhoads shaped v being made uploadfromtaptalk1445058064996.jpg
Now it's finished but we have a very big problem.. Finding a big enough case to fit this beast. I've searched the web but can't find what I'm looking for 1220mm x 420mm inner case... The biggest I've found doesn't quiet cut it.. The case itself doesn't have to be ready to fit as we can cut out and alter as needed it just needs to be big enough.. Any ideas on what to do or where to look? The guitar is extremely long and its done after all this time and the only thing holding me back from getting it is a dam cover... uploadfromtaptalk1445058296028.jpguploadfromtaptalk1445058305676.jpguploadfromtaptalk1445058320403.jpg

Re: Guitar case problem

I'd done some searching previously, and had a couple options on file at various price points, $99-$213. The last one is ATA rated, highly protective but I assume pretty heavy, with foam you cut to fit.

Re: Guitar case problem

A. Epically sick guitar! :headbang:

B. Maybe try a Bass Case for something like a Thunderbird or other odd shape? Or maybe a Keyboard Case for like a 61 or 72 Key?

C. G&G Cases can build you one: "Do you make custom cases? Yes, please email info@ggqualitycase.com for pricing and minimum orders. I am looking to get a custom fitted case made for my custom guitar, what do you need in order to do this? We need you to mail in a dummy guitar or guitar template in order for us to guarantee a fit. Please include any other details or specifics you feel are necessary.

That is just awesome! Love it!

I'm thinking a Keyboard case is the best way to go...I think the Custom G&G would be very pricey...
 
Re: Guitar case problem

I guess you need to speak w/the builder if he does this a lot...should come w/for Custom Coin,IMO...

Best of w/the search,tho,mebbe a Bass case & some towels/foam or something...

Re: Guitar case problem

Don't care about your case problem, but I do care about more pics!!!

I do think you may have to go custom case though.
