speaking of cases, i never really surrendered to accepting anything less than a hard one, so far – and, was i wrong!
this one ticks all boxes, as far as transportation on a personal vehicle goes: it's featherlight, sturdy, perfectly balanced – and not as bulky as some other ones are.
i'd only wish it came with a single belt, too, instead of only the double backpack-like ones – because i always have to carry a laptop around, so there's already a backpack with that one on my shoulders... but none has this feature, so this isn't the only one without.
it sure rivals some good hard ones, price-wise – but it fares pretty well, or even better than some of them, on specific aspects (namely: in high-humidity areas).
mine often keeps in the trunk of a car for a whole day, in seriously foggy outdoors, with a thinline tele tucked inside... and, contrary to the fancy original-branded hard-case, that poshy tweed one that comes with limited models, i never experienced dew to condense on the inside of this Reunion Blues CV.
i haven't tried to assess whether its content might survive a fall from 2 meters with the headstock hitting a marble floor head-first... and it surely depends on how heavy the guitar body is anyway, if the neck's meant to survive, speaking of a tele – but i wouldn't try it with any off-the-shelf hard-case anyway...
it felt and feels like money well-spent... after years of use, it still looks (and works) as new, and never a damage to its precious load inside – it won over my biased prejudice, and i can now only recommend it!
