Well I have always used Ameritage cases, and I love the look of Brocks and Lances. Well copying is the best form of flattery. I loved the all black look so I had Nancy make my next batch all black with gold hardware. I also decided to have my logo embroirdered on the cases. I love the look.
I should get them in a couple of weeks.

You can buy 1 or 100
The prices get better for greater than 3 and better for 6 or more.

You guys are just JEALOUS ... takes a REAL man to carry a pink case. Hey, 58 Les Pauls come with a pink lined case ...

I guess its the light - they are supposed to be burgundy !!! At least I hope its burgundy

Hey, very nice cases guys!

I guess I am the exception to the rule. 2/3 of my order was “lost” and the 1/3 that did get built is a month behind schedule with no firm delivery date available.

Not sure I would put myself through this again as I missed getting a new guitar to a customer who just played the New Orleans Jazz Festival.

Do you guys ever have customers who don't want an Ameritage case because of its weight? I bought some and love them, but I'm afraid potential customers won't want to lug around all that weight.

I realize they have to be heavy to give the protection they provide.

Well, you might get some who dont want to pay the upgrade - so my std case is a TKL 9000 series. Havent had one yet who doesnt want the Ameritage though once they see it, and I show them how it will support my full weight - 190 lbs. TKL wont do that without creaking pretty bad at the joints as you start to increase the pressure - I stop before it might collapse.

Looks like they could also use the same model that models John How's T-shirts
