Hi Tommy. I found that my Wheel-Ez case worked fine for an Emmons LeGrande II, and only needed the devider flap removed to fit my Zum or MSA Millennium, (a ten minute fix.) From time to time, I also have carried a D-10 Mullun in the same case despite the Mullen's shorter length and it worked great. You can easily modify the support blocks by removing them with a phillips screwdriver, so these cases are really very flexable. After I removed the devider flap, I put a small towel between the guitar's undercarriage and the pedal board/leg pouch to protect parts from rubbing each other. I can't say for sure, but I bet your Fessenden is about the same length as an Emmons or Zum. Best Regards, D.D.

Duane,

What is the weight of the SKB case you're using.

Thanks,
Randy

Howdy Randy. On bathroom scales, the Wheel-eze case weighs 12.3/4lbs. to possibly 13lbs empty. The total weight of the SKB Wheel-eze case with my D-10, 8x8 Zumsteel,leg pouch, and small towel is 55lbs. At the time I bought my cases, SKB Company had an exclusive contract with the Sierra Guitar Company, so I had to buy my cases from Sierra at a very small dealer discount. I was a little unhappy with the price but the case proved to be well worth the investment. Don't take it to an airport, but it's a winner for every other application. D.D.
