Where does everyone get their flight cases? Need one for my Friedman head but my usual source (Flightcase warehouse) doesn't seem to have an in stock size to suit, anyone know anywhere else I should check out?

    can't you send them the dimensions to have one made up?

    Yes, but make sure you include the full dimensions including feet and handles. They made one for me with dimensions they got from the manufacturer's spec, and the lid wouldn't quite close because the feet and handle were a bit taller than standard.

    They apologised for the mistake - it was the first case they'd ever made for that amp model apparently - and replaced it within 48hrs, so I would still use them again.

    I had one made up by Trifibre who are local to me, I took it into the workshop to be measured. When i recieved the case there was a 1 inch gap between the top of the amp head and the foam in the lid. They rectified it there and then by removing the lid and bottom foam, and replacing it with thicker stuff.

    Castle cases have done a few orders for me and I've always been happy with them.

    Adrenaline Flight cases in Swinton are great. I i highly recommend them and they'll make cases to fit just about anything.

    Thomann - send 'em the dimensions
    "Working" software has only unobserved bugs. (Parroty Error: Pieces of Nine! Pieces of Nine!)
    Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
