Excellent high quality case

Not just for dreadnaught acoustics - I bought this for an Electra lawsuit copy of a Howard Roberts guitar. Fit was perfect and this case just oozes quality. Really well made and provides top notch protection. Thanks to Dontae Harris for his excellent service in finding a suitable case for me. Sweetwater is the best!!

100% satisfied

I bought this for a Martin DX1K. It was matched with my guitar in Sweetwater's case finder. This case fits almost as it was made for this guitar. It is made out of ABS plastic, same as my whitewater canoes and kayaks. They are extremely durable.

Highly recommend

Contacted Joel at sweetwater looking for a hard case for my Fender CD-60S all mahogany guitar. This case was one of the cases he suggested. It fits the guitar perfectly. Very sturdy and well made. Really plush and cushioning inside with a nice accessory compartment.
You can't go wrong with a Gator case.
