Crossrock Fiberglass Hardshell Guitar Case for Les Paul - White Backpack Style | Perfect for Travel, Gigging & Secure Storage

Great product! I see some mixed reviews that seem to explain themselves with either wrong item ordered or some sort of unreasonable expectations. This is the closest thing to a full blown flight case you can buy without getting a full blown flight case. It is pretty much bullet proof but elegant and comfortable. I purchased mine with the case bag as well for the added padding, both for the case itself and my back as I backpack it a lot. The small music pocket on the case bag is nice too but I wish it were just a bit higher capacity for a text book since I use this primarily as a college commuter as a guitar student so I often have more than a 4 or 5 page repertoire bi-fold.The case itself is incredible. I recently purchased a Yulong Guo double top concert guitar and it came with essentially a glossy ivory/cream color CRF1000 knock-off under the name "Singing Dragon". Great case, ever so slightly larger which I figured out from trying to put the CR case bag around it without success, but still a bomb proof alternative that seems to only come with Yulong Guo guitars. I have 2 classicals that I play often, one being a much less expensive but still valuable to me Cordoba C7 that I wanted another case for. The Crossrock is far superior in build quality, used more latches, slightly different in style, and is a much more professional looking case with the brown leather. The integrated hygrometer is beautiful and works well cross checked with my digital Oasis hygrometer/thermometer/humidifier unit. It doesn't interfere at all with the headstock of either guitar as someone else claimed in their review but they may have some anomaly guitar design. The neck pocket is significantly smaller than most other cases I've had, including the singing dragon, but I think it's due to a much heaftier padding in the neck support as well as the slimmer design of the case itself. With a classical I don't really have a grand need for a massive neck pocket but it's worth mentioning to those who require a stash pocket for accessories. The case comes with a matching velvet pad for filling gaps around the body of a slightly smaller than standard guitar so I imagine a children's guitar would fit or an oddly shaped renaissance/parlor guitar might be adaptable. I personally find it useful to pad around the headstock since it is the only area of the case that the guitar has any room to move. It also comes with a nice little velvet back that contains the included straps but doubles nicely as an accessory bag for whatever you can fit in it. The CRF1000 Classical Case Bag is also an incredibly tailored fit and elegant yet functional. It doesn't look quite as classy as the leather finish of course, but it does a fantastic job protecting it and makes the case much easier to wear as a backpack. The case features little hard rubber feet on the back, bottom, and hinged side but when worn as a backpack the pegs on the bottom are right in your shoulder blades. The case bag pads perfectly well enough to eliminate that discomfort and provides a very small amount of room for some sheet music. Not enough for anything more than maybe a soft cover 50 pages or less, so forget a binder or any big text books for students but perhaps some repertoire or a thin method book.
