  • Fits my 'jazz' style bass, Gator quality!
Style: Bass
I ordered this case for my Sire V5 (Jazz bass style), and it is a perfect fit. I was concerned as the Sire is a little longer than a jazz bass by a hair,but it is a comfy fit for the guitar. The case is nice, wood with a plush interior. The case latches seem sturdy and the case is what I've come to expect from Gator products. (Good stuff!) All in all a great case for the money! ... show more

  • Great Value - Good Case
Style: Bass
I've been using the Gater Guitar Case for my Fender Player Plus Precision Bass, and I couldn't be happier with it. The fit is perfect, and I love the spacious internal compartment that keeps my earbuds and instrument cable organized. The felt lining is incredibly soft and provides excellent protection for my bass. I've been taking this case to gigs for several months now, and it's stood up remarkably well, handling the wear and tear without any issues. The construction of the case is impressive – it's sturdy, and the heavy-duty latches work flawlessly. Considering it's less than half the price of branded cases, it's an incredible value. I highly recommend the Gater Guitar Case to any bass guitarist looking for a reliable and well-built case. ... show more

  • Great value
Style: Wide Body
This case was purchased to hold a PRS SE Mikael Ackerfeldt guitar. For those who struggle to find the correct case for this guitar, this one works just fine! For the price, the case is well constructed and holds the guitar very snugly. My first week's use with this case saw me travelling from Boston to Sydney with plane changes at JFK and LAX. Considering the rough treatment that luggage undergoes in the USA, the guitar arrived in good shape even though it was opened by the TSA along the way. The covered compartment that separates the neck end from the body end is large enough to hold a strap, lead, picks, whammy bar (which MUST be removed in the case) and any other accessories. The inside is lined by a soft material that should not cause any scratches but there is minimal padding between the guitar and the hard shell of the case. The handle is off-center so that the case is well balanced when carrying. Some usage notes: Firstly the lock on the case cannot be used on a plane as it is not TSA compliant, nor is there a slot to attache a 3rd party TSA lock. Combine this with the fact that the latches could easily flick open in transit, led me to cover the latches with Gaffa tape prior to check-in. In addition to this, I put a ($4 Wal-Mart) luggage strap around the case to ensure it did not open by accident. Secondly, the neck sits high in the case and is held in place by the pressure of the lid on the body. If shipping in this case, I suggest putting a towel or some T-Shirts under the neck for stability. For day to day use, this case is more than capable of looking after your guitar and should survive most gigging transport. Be aware though that this is a tight fitting case so make sure it is not likely to get crushed. Overall I am very happy with this purchase and recommend it to others. ... show more

  • Extreme Case: Know What Works and Doesn’t
Style: Extreme
I have two of these extreme cases in my house, as I have dogs and a young kid. These are good for the appropriate guitars, but I would try to ensure they fit yours ahead of time, as they are quite large in size, though relatively thin. They seem thinner than my ESP cases that I have, but not as durable. I would consider putting an ESP case on a plane, but I wouldn’t consider this just because of the open space dynamic and slightly thinner construction and padding. But for my needs, these extreme cases are fine. The extreme version has worked for me with: Schecter e1 Epiphone explorer LTD EX-7 Baritone I would assume this would work for a Snakebyte, as well. Has not worked for me with: ESP LTD Arrow Schecter Abbath (V style) ... show more

  • I'm happy
Style: Extreme
Got it for a Peavey Rotor exp fits great in the case. not bad quality for the price roomy storage compartment. I don't beat up or throw around my equipment like some so it should last a good while. I did some people unfortunately got either a damaged case or got damaged during shipping so it's something to be mindful of making this purchase. ... show more

  • Okay case, not horrible.
Style: Electric
It's a good quality case but they cheaped out in the dumbest way possible. They only installed 2 feet on the hinge side, so when you try to set the case down it leans to one side. If you aren't careful it will fall over. Read the other reviews and you'll notice others complaining about the same exact thing. I wish I had listened. I purchased this case for a Jackson JS22 Dinky, which fit perfectly. And it has a decent storage compartment for a guitar cable, tuner, picks, extra strings and so on. It also locks. The build quality is nice but I would go for the Cahaya guitar case. ... show more
