Members OldGuitarPlayer Posted October 23, 2007 Members Share Posted October 23, 2007 I too vote for a hardshell case as you will need one eventually. A gigbag will "do" but in the longrun you will need a hardcase. If you are driving to your lessons and don't have to walk a long distance carrying the guitar there really is no point in using a flimsy gigbag. Having looked at the pic of the guitar you ordered I bet it would fit in a standard 000 or OM size case. I have a Martin 000-15 that came with a TKL hardshell case that says "Martin" on it. The generic TKL case sells for about $70 here in Canada. When your guitar arrives and you pick it up have the sales person try to fit a case for it. You could also write to the Tanglewood company and see what size case they recommend for your guitar. Personally I have always thought it was stupid that all manufacturers or dealers don't provide a case with every guitar sold. Martin, Taylor and Gibson do. Even Taylor provides a fairly decent gigbag with their entry level 100 series guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members denvertrakker Posted October 23, 2007 Members Share Posted October 23, 2007 lol.. she does "stay" its rare that she would bounce around the SUV.. but the point is that she CAN. Its not a car with a trunk, its all open- so the possibility is there.. slim, but possible Maybe I missed it, but are we talking chihuahua or St. Bernard, or somewhere in between? Makes a big difference... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SkipBone Posted October 23, 2007 Members Share Posted October 23, 2007 Hard case. It pays for itself the first time you accidentally run over it while trying to escape. Uhm, or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members denvertrakker Posted October 23, 2007 Members Share Posted October 23, 2007 2 year old Female, Black Labrador Retriever approx 70lbs Uh-oh. Hard case definitely. Inside a steel box.My son has a female black Lab. I call her Devil Dog. She's the sweetest dog, except when she periodically goes nutso. She'll eat anything - slippers, windowsills, concrete chunks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Amanda-Jane Posted October 23, 2007 Author Members Share Posted October 23, 2007 Thats funny.My dog goes nutso too...lmao..she can get hyper- but that is usually due to lack of excercise- she lets me know when its time to go to the park.. but she isn't a chewer... she is really good.. My motto for all dog owners...a tired dog is a good dog.. take time to get them wore out and you will be much happier with all the hours that follow of peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Gary Palmer Posted October 23, 2007 Members Share Posted October 23, 2007 2 year old Female, Black Labrador Retriever approx 70lbs Definitely a situation for a hardcase. I've two three yr old black Lab's and can never praise a well fitted case too highly for at home or en route somewhere. Padded gig bags always come in handy on the odd occasion. I'd recommend you buy both and use whichever one suits the situation in hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ronzo II Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 +1 for the RoadRunner hardcase from Guitar Center. $62.00 out the door for each of the two I have. Very nice case for the coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ESL94 Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 FWIW, I live in the city and I walk to 90% of my gigs. So a gig bag type case is essential. But back when I lived in the suburbs, I was driving to my gigs so a hard case was better because it was more protected in the car.If I were you, I'd decide whether or not I'm driving or walking to my lessons and make the decision based on that.Ellen +1I'm on the same page.
