I bought this case for my new Yamaha FS-TA, recommended by the Thomann's staff.
The first thing I noticed is that the hinges can be pretty difficult to close and that is because the upper side of the case is slightly bent upwards, the aluminium frame won't seal one in another without special adjustment.
The inside looks really nice with its soft black plush. My guitar fits fine inside, but it is moving when handling the case. It is still slightly too big for that model, although it was recommended by the Thomann's service.
Pros: Nice black soft plush. Case is really light. It will serve the purpose.
Cons: The upper plastic side of the case is twisted enough to make problems when closing the hinges.

fab for forty quid
first problem was that the bloody English post office had been playing football with the case, so it was dented/broken when it arrived...''ooh look , it says 'fragile', lets see how hard we can kick it'' (bastids!)
however, thomann sent me labels to return it and within a week I had a new and undented case arrive! the postman must have not had time to dance on it that day!!
is the case as strong and well made as a Hiscox?( I have one for my Takamine) no, but its a third of the price!
however it IS well made and strong enough for most purposes, its a good fit round the edges, has a lockable latch, easy to use, nicely designed, has a pocket for strings/strap. and looks fab.
I think thomann needs to make it very clear in their advertising that it will NOT fit a regular dreadnought guitar
it fits my Yamaha ls6 which is a ''triple 0'' size, but it'd nice to fit a dreadnought too!!
very good for the money .. A bargain!.
id get a better case, if id spent a LOT on an acoustic, but for low/mid price guitars (say up to 500 squid) its more than adequate! good old thomann, ..they're a lot cheaper than GB prices.. I paid 53 euros(£42 quid) cheapest locally was over £60 !

Excellent Value for Money
Ordered the case for my newly acquired Harley Benton Custom Line CLR-ResoElectric bluegrass Series, electric resonator-guitar.
Very good quality, though the case is too big for the resonator.
A note to Thomann, you might want to consider sourcing a case that fits better the resonator. As the case will probably end up in checked-in luggage on aircrafts, I will need to improvise a more secure fit to avoid protential damage to the resonator during transportation.
Overall, very happy with the quality, thank you again Thomann for your continual contribution to the musicians of the world by providing top quality instruments at extremely attractive prices.

Draw bolts might be a bit flimsy, will see in the long run
Looks and feels decent now it's new, and the casing is perfect for travelling. I feel safe carrying around my guitar in this case, for a decent price, the inner padding is more than comfortable and keeps it in place, the outer casing is hard ABS and feels reasonably strong. I'm not so sure about the draw bolts, which seem a bit light/fragile and I'm not sure how these will wear. In the worst case I'll have to figure out a way to repair/replace these... Excellent customer service from Thomann throughout.

Everything I needed
I bought this case some time ago for my Takamine acoustic guitar. Since then I did a lot of gigging and travelling with this case. My guitar was always well protected and safe . There are only the usual scratches in the ABS from loading the guitars into the cars and vans.
Weight: Compared to a wooden case (Epiphone...) it is really light.
Inside: Black, soft, nice to look at. A relatively big department for spare strings, tuners, cables... and, which is a very nice feature, for CDs! (it's big enough). The neck of the guitar is supported.
Outside: The handle seems quite stable and robust. The aluminium frame is still in the right shape and has proved solid. The hinges don't look very solid but work - so no problem.
Extras: What has really made this case a fantastic deal for me was the fact that my Harley Benton E 35 (Gibson ES 335 style) also fits in this case. I just put a square piece of polysterene on the bottom of the case to support the body and to bring it to the right height.
Not only because of the little money paid for it this a really a good product.

Almost perfect
This case is pretty much perfect, gits my guitar beautifully and holds it securely in place. Small pocket inside the case is the perfect size for a few pics, spare strings capos and anything else you might need on a gig. My only problem with it is that the latches sometimes take a little effort to line up and the lock is extremely tough to turn. I almost snapped the key trying to unlock it at one point. Other than this a pretty perfect case.

Not perfect, but excellent value
Fit and quality are far better than you'd expect at this price. Certainly rugged enough to hold up to a fair bit of abuse. Clips are a little fidly, but once fastened, the case is extremely solid
