The more or less 0 size that I built from the Scott Antes plans fit perfectly in a TKL case that I bought from either MF or Elderly. TKL and Cedar Creek, their custom case division, have all the dimentions on line.

I was hunting around for one a few years ago, and it seemed that Elderly is the main source for 0 size cases. Most dealers don't carry them. If they think about it at all, they think an 0 size is the same thing as a parlor guitar.

I found that Gator makes an inexpensive 3/4 size case that just fits a Martin 0 in the body area, but is 3/8" too short for the neck. : p

I just bought a Roadrunner molded case "classical" for an 0 size that I just finished. It fits pretty good. Got it at a local Guitar Center, I think the link below is to the case I bought. Mine was missing the RR insignia and the tags so i got it fo 69 bucks, but the did say it was a classical size.

Tamarkin Company is where I get my 14 fret 0 size cases. The DT 900 will fit a 13.5" lower bout, 10" upper bout, 39" overall length and 5" deep. Nice hard shell case for around $60 plus shipping. Talk to John, 800 521 5464. If you need any other measurements, I have one here and will be able to respond later this afternoon.
