Guys,

The person I need to contact at Cedar Creek cases is out today - and I need some info.

Does anybody have specs on what their Small Jumbo (CC316 I think) case weighs.

I have a customer considering all his options and looking at:

Hoffee, Cedar Creek and Ameritage

Are their others we should be looking at?

Thanks

Don't know what the weight is on the Cedar Creek, But I would add in that the new molded SKB flight cases are pretty nice, very robust and quite a bit lighter than the Ameritage cases. however, by being plastic and rectangular, they lack the cool look of the Ameritage or Hoffee

I remembered that a friend of mine here in town has a standard Cedar Creek case like we offer with our guitars.

I checked the fit for this current build and it was perfect.

The weight was 15 lbs. (but seemed lighter than that in your hands)

Speaking of SKB cases, can the luthier buy direct from them? In small quanities?

Thanks for any info.
