Product Description
Gator Cases are designed to meet the needs of the most sophisticated buyer. Rugged ABS construction to handle the battle of the road, yet the interior is fitted with "Class A" plush. The case is lockable. Now featuring the patent pending bolt-thru system, which bonds the exterior to the interior at the handle!

2 out of 5 stars Not Big enough inside   October 28, 2008
The case is made very well but the inside doesn't have enough room as it wouldn't fit my Stagg acoustic guitar and close without possible damage.




5 out of 5 stars Super product.   August 8, 2008
A very good quality case. Very inexpensive. Holds some music and other items with the guitar. Keeps it safe. Comes with 2 keys. Our family really likes it.


5 out of 5 stars Gator GCDread Acoustic Guitar Case   March 29, 2008
I was completely satisfied with the Gator GCDread Acoustic Guitar Case. It's solid, well made, and light weight. It has ample compartment space and should give many years of good service. I'd buy another one.


5 out of 5 stars very Good protection!!!   January 27, 2008
Very good brand and the brand itself has a great reputation. Fits the guitar well.

Unfortunately, the first shipment of this guitar case was inappropriately packaged and arrived damaged, having had the lower end of the case smashed at some time during shipment. It would be inadvisable to use this case as a shipping crate or to send it through airline luggage...at least not if you value your guitar. The molded plastic is definitely too thin and brittle to withstand shipment abuses. I do have to mention, however, that Amazon was EXCELLENT in quickly resending a replacement case appropriately packaged to prevent damage. In regard to the guitar case itself, the INNER sizing of this case does NOT fit a standard dreadnought guitar. I bought this case to protect my old Dobro, which fits in it fine. However, even though it's supposed to be a 'dreadnought' case, it was too shallow for my Fender DG-11 dreadnought. The lid pressed down on top of the bridge and the neck even before the lid closed all the way. I believe that closing/latching the lid would eventually have damaged the guitar body due to excessive pressure, particularly on the bridge area. The shell of the case itself is big enough, but the design of the inner lining eats up a lot of the depth of the actual case. The accessory compartment is roomy enough but sticks up too high and does not support or cradle the neck of the dreadnought. In addition to using a (better?) more resilient molded plastic, I think Gator needs to make some revisions to the design of the interior of the case so that it can actually be used for a standard 'dreadnought' style guitar.
