| I am looking to update my Emmons case to more of a road case. Something with wheels and handle on both ends plus one in the middle. Any help would be grateful as my back is killing me but I love that PP feel. Thanks........ Marty |

I purchased a small hand truck that converts to a cart by relocating the handle. In the cart configuration, it will hold not only your guitar, but an amp and pac seat as well.
It definitely saved my back. |

Bob Dell's wheeled case would be perfect for you - I don't have his details to hand, but do a 'search'. The quality is amazing!

You can get a pretty heavy duty version of the convertible hand truck at home depot or lowes

Charles,
The unit resembles a normal hand truck, but the handle is separate and held on by a large cotter pin. It also has an additional set of wheels by the handle. By removing the handle and resting the unit flat on both sets of wheels, the handle can then be inserted into the other set of sockets and secured, thus becoming a cart. |

Marty --- I strongly second Roger's suggestion--I have three Dell cases and there are top quality and durable !!!
Bob and wife Trisha live here in the same county as I in N.W. Arkansas and they are honest and nice people to know. Try this site (if I can enter it here correctly ) www.cox-internet.com/dellcases/ [This message was edited by Bill Myrick on 19 July 2004 at 11:20 AM.] |
