5Look no further  Sep 29, 2007 By jainen
First of all, my new case is SOLID. Even open it doesn't skew or twist. The top doesn't compress at all and the lip makes a smooth seal all around.

There are lots of little details you wouldn't think of, like extra ridges and feet to take the first hits. I live by the sea so materials that are impervious to moisture are essential. The trigger latches are of simple design, easy and fast to open.

The neck is wide to hold shaped foam that cradles your fretboard. This also provides more storage--a spare pack of strings lies flat. It gives a nice balance to the big dreadnought body, both in weight and appearance. Did I mention the comfy, oversized handle?

This is a beautiful case with a gently arched top. The interior is a classy dark jade velour which vacuums well and won't show stains.

So I'm a fan. The SKB18 costs only a few coins more than an average box, and truly has some superior features. Look no further.

5Good Stuff!  Jul 19, 2006 By B. Lundberg "Dream Weaver"
You get what you pay for, and in this case (no pun intended) you get a sturdy' well built' solid piece of guitar womb!, put your acoustic in here and set your mind at ease!, it takes a licking and keeps on ticking!....

4Great design and light weight  Aug 07, 2008 By Marchin K. Ohashi
Great outlook and it uses a strong materials for any kind travel. The weight is actually lighter than other standard fabric or skin material guitar case. Very satisfied.

Only negative point is the lit part on other side of the latch does not properly sealed. There is a small gap. It might be only mine.

5Seems nice and sturdy  Oct 10, 2009 By Mr. Mike "Mr. Mike"
As the other reviewers stated, this is a sturdy case. I don't have much experience with other cases but this seems like a pretty good one and it fit my guitar well. The four latches (one locking) seem very sturdy. If there is any weak point it may be the hinges. I suspect they might succumb to repeated rough use, but would be easy to replace if they ever do - just drill out the rivets and replace with stronger hinges for just a few dollars from any hardware store. I'm sure I'll be passing this on to my children and them to their grandchildren and wouldn't be surprised if this case was still in use more than a century from now. One thing to note: Mine came with a furry green interior.

Update: Having used this around other people with guitar cases I can state without reservation that this is far and away the best one I have seen. Every piece of hardware on this thing is way better than any of the others. Archaeologists thousands of years in the future will find my guitar in perfect condition, protected by this great case.

5Outstanding case for travel  Jul 31, 2011 By L. Pine "harp junkie"
After looking at a lot of cases, I settled on this one and hoped for the best. I was taking my acoustic overseas, and had to check it. The TSA lock was a big selling factor, and when I got the case and saw the quality of the fit and finish, solid construction, and nice balance for carrying, my confidence went way up. My guitar arrived in perfect condition, and the case had only a few scuffs. Great product, great price on Amazon, and I'm going to buy another one for my classical guitar.
