It's been awhile since we've had an NTB thread and after seeing this guitar I thought it was too perfect with the recent black top and harp guitar threads. So... Name that builder!

Mercy, that's fine-looking!

But it does inspire a question--who makes harp guitar cases?
Is there a "standard" harp guitar case dimension?
Every harp guitar I see seems different from the previous one.
Getting a good case must be a challenge.

Steve,

Cases are either custom made or adapted - flight cases for keyboards with a foam cut-out interior. Gregg Miner sells these.

If you haven't seen Duane's work in person, it is impeccable. He's totally humble, but his work is outstanding. I look forward to seeing his latest at the Newport show in FL. Wonder if I'll get to see this beauty.
