GC-ELEC-XL Deluxe ABS Molded Case for Extra Long Baritone Guitar Review

Perfect Case for the Gretsch Jet Jr.

I bought this case after reading that my Gretsch would fit it perfectly and it did. Well constructed as most Gator cases are and plenty of room for your straps, tuner and strings. Worth the price to get.

Fits Music Man/Sterling short scale Sting Ray perfectly.

I have always been pleased with Gator cases. When I got myself a short scale Sting Ray bass I used Gators "Will it fit" helper and this was the best option. My short scale Sting Ray fits in there perfectly and the case is of good quality. I am very pleased.

Perfect fit, as promised.

I needed a case for my Gretsch Junior Jet bass. Reading the reviews for that instrument, I found conflicting information: some people said to use such-and-such case; others said no, use X; at least one person said that there simply isn't a case that will work… Here on the Sweetwater website, they list this case as a "certified fit" for the junior jet, but still, I was a little… read more nervous, until… I went ahead and called and spoke with Alex who assured me that if it says it is a certified fit, it's going to fit. He explained the entire process to me, how they take each new instrument (like when they start carrying a new product) and test it by hand to see which case or cases will or will not work. They've done their homework – and not just by comparing measurements or whatever, but by actually taking the time to try it out for themselves on our behalf. When you think about it, it's a relatively small step to take, but it makes all the difference. If you can't try it out for yourself at a local music store, and you are having to purchase blindly from a website, it's an awesome feeling to know that when these guys say it's a certified fit, it is a certified, guaranteed, sure enough fit. So, I bought it. And it fits. End of story. I'm able to store the bass with a nice (i.e., thick) strap still attached and simply tucked in beside the upper bout. The headstock reaches right to the very end but isn't being cramped, no pressure. It's also got enough storage space that you could have potentially an instrument cable besides string packs, tuner, etc. The latches are secure. It's not too heavy. And the price is right.

Nice case

Got this case even though I don't have a baritone guitar. My normal double cutaway 3 pickup guitar (Electra X185) wouldn't fit in the standard length version. This one is pretty much perfect.

Amazing!

I feel very secure and taken care of when I shop here in Sweetwater. The products are always excellent quality. Not to mention the service. Adam did an amazing job at helping me find this terrific case. I came to him with nothing but a picture of the instrument I needed to keep protected and he gave me a name and perfect description of a good case right from the start. Even after… read more as I kept showing him others that could maybe find themselves needing to fit in this "case" he was given the task to find, he still continued to offer me different kinds and his opinions. It was great! Sweetwater has an amazing system and amazing team. Thank you so much Adam and Sweetwater!
