I think I need a case for a Vintage MSA D10. Wheels would probably be nice.
Does anyone know of any vendors that can cut a case for this guitar?
Thanks. |

Phillip, would you PM me contact info for Thomas case co. Assuming this is Wade Thomas that used to build cases for Emmons guitar Co. Thanks in advance.

I second the Kevin Hatton recommendation.
And since it's an MSA, I SERIOUSLY advise split cases. _________________ 2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)

I bought a couple of Wade Thomas' cases over the years. Been in business for decades, builds as good a case as there is anywhere.

Anyone know what new cases are going for these days? I need a new one for my Sho-Bud LDG. |

I have Thomas split cases for my Ritt. Pretty elegant. |

I got a bunch of quotes from different case companies recently. You're probably looking at around $300 shipped for a set of split cases. |

Yes, both are great case builders and charge a fair price. I needed a Thomas Case repair estimate for UPS. The current # for Wade Thomas is
336-739-1064.

Well, contacted Wade Thomas, and he can't make a case for the Sierra Steel Guitars. |

Kevin Hatton made me some split cases years ago and they are still in use. Wheels too! |

I'm definitely in the Kevin Hatton camp. He just made me a set of split cases for a Sho-Bud Pro II Custom with the wheels, they're great. _________________ MSA D-10 Legend XL, Show Pro Custom D-10, Emmons D-10 LeGrande II, Sho-Bud Pro II Custom, Telonics and Quilter Amps. |

I highly recommend Hugh Briley. He made a perfect split case for my old Sho Bud. Attaches hardware with rivets. Very bomb-proof. _________________ To write with a broken pencil is pointless. |
