Terry,

Actually those cases I'm selling are custom cases I had made for me, but
obviously other guitars will fit. The dimensions of the guitar the case was
made for are:

15 1/8" Lower Bout
11 1/8" Upper Bout
9 1/4" Waist
19 3/8" Body Length
4 1/2" Depth at Lower Bout
25.5 scale length
14 frets to body

Mayes SJ         &nbs p;         O.L. F. SJ
15 1/8" Lower Bout        15 1/2" Lower Bout
11 1/8" Upper Bout        15 5/8" Upper Bout
9 1/4" Waist         & nbsp;     9 3/4" Waist         & nbsp;    
19 3/8" Body Length       19 15/16" Body length
4 1/2" Depth at L. B.      4 1/2" depth at L.B.
25.5 scale length           same
14 frets to body         &n bsp; same

Looks like it might make it some areas, and pretty tight in others....

ANyone tried this case?

I'm pretty sure this case would work for ya... but I can't say for 100% as I
don't have the guitar in hand... I sold some of these cases a while back and
maybe somebody put an OLF SJ in the case....

How about an Ameritage OLF SJ Case. I have an extra. They are awesome
and they were custom made for us. The were taken right off of Michael
Paynes direct measurements

Terry,
Here are a couple of photos of the Ameritage with my recent OLF SJ build in it. As you can see, it fits nice.
I'm sorry I can't help with the other case.
On John's case you have 1/2 inch of interference on the upper bout and body length. It all depends how much and how easily the side padding gives.
