Amp road cases

[leib10]

Since my other thread didn't get much attention, I was wondering if I could make it more general. Where is the best place to get road cases for your amps? Is it a local thing or are there certain companies that make them specifically for different amps?

Here is a place that is in your backyard.....simple google search. They do custom cases as well.

I've had a lot of luck with SafeCase. You can get them on Ebay. Well priced.

I just put an order in with Rockhard Cases (www.rockhardcases.com). Email Mark @ the same address for info. His prices are acceptable, considering the quality of work. This is probably the 4th or 5th that I have ordered from him and he has a quick turnaround. Compared to his cases, some of these others are simply shit. I threw out two Brady cases that were falling apart. Beware of the fly by nights on eBay. The real quality in cases is in what you don't see.

As a reference, I just ordered a rolling amp rack for my VH4, with 6 spaces, premium 3" casters, 3/8" construction, 14" depth for $600. He's been in business for years.

I've been using A & S Cases for 20+ years and (as a matter of fact I still use the original case I bought for my Mesa/Boogie MKIII Coliseum, back in '86. It's been around the country from California to Baltimore and back to Hawaii etc... Still holding up GREAT!!

Nice, thanks guys. Looks like I should be prepared to spend at least $200 for a decent case. Anybody heard of using a cheaper alternative (grad school budget here!)?

You're pretty much gonna get what you pay for.....good cases aint cheap and cheap cases aint good.

While you 'could' take your guitar wrapped in a Glad trash bag, a Good case to protect it, is never a bad plan. Same w/ your gear-- it's worth protecting w/ a Good rack case.
