Good case for the money. I really prefer an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer), but at 3- 4 times the cost it is really hard to justify the Fender OEM case. This one does the job well. I have spent a couple of dollars on sheet foam to surround the body of the guitar to keep it from moving. But I have sources for the foam, cheap, and I have the equipment and skills to fabricate it. The case construction seems pretty sturdy, and the latches are not bad. It helps keep the guitar from getting banged up. It holds up to the usual banging around in the trunk to a gig. However, if I were to travel frequently by plane, I would spend the money on a heavy duty case.
