ChromaCast CC-EHC Electric Guitar Hard Case,Black

If you’re like me and have been searching for a decent hard case for a Jazzmaster but can’t find any on Facebook marketplace because they’re uncommon and don’t want to spend $150-$250 on the Gator/SKB/Fender equivalent, I’m writing this review for you! I got this case on sale for around $75-$80 after tax. That’s a good price on a new hard case whether for a common or uncommon guitar body style. While it’s allegedly designed to be intended for a Tele/Strat I had seen some reviews stating this case was just barely big enough to fit a Jazzmaster so I decided to give it a go. I’ve been working on this guitar for a bit making big upgrades and is now at a point where it’s ‘worth’ enough to require a hard case in my opinion, but it’s not a guitar I felt the need to invest over $200 on a premium case option. Received this ChromaCast case yesterday and have so far been relatively pleased. The overall fit and finish on the exterior is good and seems to be built and designed pretty well. The latches, while not heavy duty at all, do work and will do the job. (There is a key included for the lock feature which I won’t use) While I would certainly never throw this case off a balcony and expect it would protect my guitar from all harm, it seems like it’s protective enough for my uses. For reference, those uses are hauling around my church building, in and out of my car, maybe a gig or two here or there. As for the interior, also not too bad. The padding is ample enough and will provide some good shock absorption. For what it’s worth, because the Jazzmaster body is wider than a Tele/Strat, it is more of a snug fit which probably will be better in the long run. It is too snug, however, by the strap button nearest the neck. The way I’m dealing with it for now, as you see in the pictures, is by essentially ‘stabbing’ the cushy wall with the strap button. I may modify later to add a little room but it seems ok for now. The storage compartment is a little small in my opinion for how much room there is in the case. It will be fine for my needs, but if you’re looking to have more gigging supplies in a guitar case you won’t have much to work with in this one. I was pleased to see the headstock wasn’t bumping right up against the wall of the case. When I went to close the case I wanted to make sure the fit wasn’t weird enough to where the top would put pressure down on the headstock when closed. No issues there. Note for Mastery trem users: I follow their instructions to leave the arm installed and close the case with it on. No issues there either. The case is low profile and may appear like it would drive the trem arm into the pickguard, but that one checks out ok as well. About the only thing I would have a ‘complaint’ about is when standing the case up on its long edge. I use cases in this way all the time. There may be some variance from case to case with these, but mine did not stand up straight. To compensate I added some stick-on rubber feet I had laying around to level it out. It’s not perfect but a surprisingly quick fix to the issue. If I didn’t address that and left it as is, it’s not that the case tips over when standing on edge but it’s not far from it. Overall, not a surprising quirk for the price of the case. I’m still giving the case 5 stars as it’s still a great deal with, what I consider to be, a very playable injury. At the end of the day, this really is a solid buy. I may buy another one for a Tele I have that doesn’t have a hard case yet. As I stated before, if you’re looking for a new and budget-friendly hard case for your super sweet Jazzmaster, this case really checks the boxes!

I was a little hesitant on getting this case and really didn’t know what to expect. I have a Squier Jazz Bass V and it fits my instrument perfectly. I have room for my cable, tuner, vox headphone amp, and could probably fit some extra stuff in there like a music book or sheet music. I used to have an SKB case back in the day and remembered that it was just styrofoam around a plastic shell with plush interior. Seemed excessive to spend twice the amount for arguably similar materials that are more than likely made in the same country. I love the tolex wrap and it gives the case a vintage vibe. I have a gig bag, but since I got a better instrument I wanted to keep it as safe as possible. I am very careful with my equipment and expect it to last a long time. Tolex can get scuffed, as it’s a vinyl wrap. The case feels sturdy and I’m not worried about the handle or latches breaking. My bass is pretty heavy. Overall, I would recommend anyone get this case! With gig bags being half the amount it’s a no brainer to pick one up. This is perfect for anyone that wants a quality case to keep their instrument safe.

This case is very sturdy and well made. The soft plush lining will protect your guitar. The fit is perfect. It's tight enough that there isn't any room for movement of the guitar but not so tight that you have the force the guitar into the case. It is priced well below similar cases. I have checked all the major suppliers Musicians Friend, Guitar Center, Sweetwater, eBay, and Sam Ash and l found the best deal right here on Amazon. There once was a time when you could get a decent guitar case from Musicians Friend for $49 but those days are long gone. I liked it so well that I bought another one. It comes with 2 keys although I never lock any of my guitar cases. I give this guitar case my highest recommendation. Supplies are limited so don't wait. Buy one while you still can. I have a hunch the price will increase.

It’s a good case, but the foam inside has compressed a bit under the fretboard region. This allows my bass to move around freely inside the case. Otherwise pleased.

NOTE: you WILL want to remove your tremelo "whammy" bar before closing, it does depress. Just wanted to let everyone know this indeed fits a 7-string guitar (in my case, the Schecter C-7 FR-S Apocalypse), and even has some room to spare. I would estimate about .75" on both axes of clearance before you even begin to press into the padding, so if you have a guitar that's larger than mine, you can probably make it work. If in doubt, just lookup the specs for my particular model as provided, and you can then do the math from there. That was my #1 concern when purchasing this, so I just wanted to let everyone know, it's a GO. Very nice padding and internal material as well by the way, make sure you watch out for when the keys drop out of the box after you open it (I don't know where they came from), but I did try closing it/carrying it around and it seems adequately secure. Much better than anything just made of fabric, and I knew when I got this baby, that I definitely wanted to protect it.

Perfect! My husbands Sandberg 5-string bass guitar fits in the case like a glove! He absolutely loves it. Plus I loved the price tag!

Not much to complain about here at all. Arrived extremely quickly, fits my Strat perfectly. Inside is nice and plush, keeps the guitar secure. I spun it upside down, around, every which way, and the guitar doesn't move an inch. The inside compartment is nice for storing the tremolo arm, spare picks, capo, string winder, strings, pens, etc. Lots of room in there. I even leave songbooks and a notebook in the headstock area sometimes if I need to carry them around. The clasps aren't ultra secure, and I don't particularly trust the lock. It works just fine, but I feel like somebody who cared enough could break them in about a minute. Then again, you're not storing collectors pieces in a $70 case. Materials look sturdy enough. I wouldn't carry a guitar on the road 365 days a year with this thing, but for moving to house-to-house and general storage, you can't beat it. If >$200 is your budget for a case, look no further.

A pesar de que la imagen no ilustra el producto como tal (estéticamente, me gusta más el de la imagen, con los bordes redondeados. El estuche en sí es completamente rectangular), tiene muchas ventajas. Está bastante bien construido, no pesa demasiado, tiene buen espacio en el interior. Es un poco más largo que los estuches estándar, haciendo que sobre espacio entre la cabeza de la guitarra y el borde del estuche. Cuenta con un acolchado para proteger el brazo/diapasón del instrumento. Los broches se ven de buena calidad. El compartimento para cuerdas o accesorios es muy amplio. La relación calidad-precio es insuperable, es un excelente precio para un estuche rígido.

Purchased this case for my Harley Benton te-70. Fits beautifully. seems to be of nice construction and quality covering. Latches are firm and tight.

Bought this on an Amazon Warehouse deal. Said it had major damage so I was expecting it to be scraped or crushed or the handle broken. But for $40 I was willing to take a chance. The package arrived, I unpacked it not expecting much. Much to my amazement it was in incredible condition. One small blemish about the size of a pencil eraser and you can only see it when looking at the right angle. I would’ve been happy with this case at full price. Nice and sturdy, fits and holds my 12 string telecaster snuggly and it’s lockable.
