Hoping to save some time at Cigar Center... Does anyone have a recommendation for a hard gig case for a 27.5" scale baritone Weissenborn style? It needs to be a case without a high neck brace to accommodate the hollow neck. I am hoping to fly with this guitar - probably as a carry-on with another guitar checked in a Hiscox case.
Thanks!

My 27.5" Pogreba baritone Weiss fits in a generic 12-string guitar case with that little compartment removed to make room for the hollow neck. Maybe start there? |

Same for me, except it's an Epiphone 12-string case. _________________ "Gopher, Everett?" |

My 27.5 Pogreba came with a Taylor 12 string case, modified the same way. Fits very well, but not particularly flightworthy. |

Thanks for the replies! Are you all talking about hard cases? My Lazy River came in a modded hard case, but I need to fly with it so that means either a custom flight case of some kind (expensive) or a polyfoam case that I can carry on board and insist that it is a "soft case" in case I am told I need to gate check it. This combo usually works for me on flights when traveling with a 6-string Larrivee (checked in a Hiscox) and a Guild 12-string (carried on board in a polyfoam case.)
Thanks!
