Gator is a name to be trusted when musical instruments are to be protected. This molded hardshell case is not as long as the plywood Fender cases, but it still has plenty of room to protect your guitar and carry cables, straps and even small pedals. It has "bang for your buck" written all over it, with solid latches and a plush interior. If you really care about your favorite axe, this is a case you can trust.

I needed a case to fit my Schecter C-1 Classic. The standard length version of this case was 1/2" too short, so I ordered the Extra Long Version (Same case, only lengthened headstock area). I could not be more happy. The case is very sturdy, and I can fit in my guitar with the strap on. In the 2 accessory cutouts inside, I can store a 10' guitar cable, a tuner, a rag, an extra set of strings, and picks. The greatest part is that I still have one accessory cutout that has not been used yet.
This case is also lockable, and I would have no trouble taking it on a plane with me and allowing it to be bumped around in the under carriage. The advantage with the snap locks other than the zippers many cases have is if one fails, you still have a usable case. The case also has a very sturdy bolted on handle as well as a name and address area.
Overall, I definitely feel that I made a quality investment. The case is very study and strong, and very well padded as well as having ample storage room.
****SPECIAL NOTE****
Everyone that says that their guitar does not fit has not measured their guitars dimensions previously. This is an amazing case for the money and much sturdier then the $140.00 SKB Case. Also, guitars with NON-removable Whammy bars may have problems.
Peace everybody, and keep on strumming!

For the few people saying that this case is bad because it does not fit their guitar, that is their own deal, being that gator offers cases to fit Les Pauls and other shapes sizes. Its not Gator's fault that you didn't do any research. For any kind of strat style guitar this case will fit perfect. It is exceptionally strong and has plenty of room for your accessories. I have had a ton of guitars, with a ton of cases, and by far this is the most structurally sound. Coffin Cases are nice to look at, but cheaply made, as with most OHSCs but this is a true winner.

The vendor and the product fully met my expectations. The online order and subsequent delivery went without a hitch, and my brand new electric guitar now has a nice brand new case for years to come.
Not bad for the money

I received this case and have been happy with it so far. I'm in the Navy and travel quite a bit so I needed something tough and lightweight. The only problem with the case is that it does not have a compartment with a lid for storage for picks etc... You can fit stuff in the little corners of the case but it will fly around inside if it is small enough. I just purchased a Kramer Striker and it fits in there just barely but I like the fact it does not move around inside. Not a bad product for the money. I have a SKB case as well and this one is just as good for less money.
Good, solid guitar protection
