Bought for my Gretsch G5126
Bought it for my Gretsch G5126. A tight but decent fit. Good quality.
Like with all my cases I expected this case to get "road wear" as soon as it entered the gear truck. And it did. The guitar is protected, and that's what matters.
Considering the price of a Gretsch case (G6241FT, currently 169 euro), made by TKL and pretty much identical to this Gator GW-Dread (currently 99 euro), I think I made a good choice.

Poor quality fit and finish
Having previously purchased the Gator dreadnought case for 6/12 string guitars I decided to purchase this case for my new Dowina. It arrived well packaged but on inspection I found the following:
- dent on the edge of the case lid
- one side of the handle had its filling missing
- one latch fitted crooked with top part damaging the tolex when closing
- some of the inner lining loose
I should have just returned but returning is such hassle for large items and I needed a case urgently I decided to fix the latch and inner liner and make do with it. Overall quality is very disappointing.

Perfect!
After a difficult & unfulfilled experience seeking a Sigma case for my Sigma DM-18+, I identified the Gator as a suitable alternative and it exceeded my expectations, not least because the guitar fits! Well put together, easy to handle, lovely velvety interior and high hopes for a long life protecting my dread!
