Kristen,these cases are really light...I think maybe 7-8 pounds each.
We have been making a lot of"split cases"...a case for the guitar and a smaller case
for the pedal rack and legs...we are making one now large enough to contain the volume pedal(client asked for it)...I've been flying like that for years...guitar in one case and pedal rack,legs,volume pedal,tuner,cords,picks and bar,and two effects pedals for about ten years...I never fly a pac-a-seat,so it helps out to do it that way.

Thanks
Steve


I went to facepoop page and saw a few pics. Are there any pics showing the inside of the cases?

Thanks
K

Steven- I assume that a case could be made to accommodate a Peavey LTD amplifier? Once the amp is removed from the case, would the case be "solid" enough to serve as an amp stand for the LTD? This is something I would be interested in purchasing if functional. My old case for my Zumsteel is looking pretty sad and I may be in touch. Good luck with your endeavor.

Randall,I'm carrying a Nashville 1-12 in the first case we ever made...
The case weighs 10 pounds and has 1"plank foam in it...I sit my amp on mine all the time...works great!

Let us know if we can be of service.

Thanks
Steve

I got hold of an 83 S10 Franklin a few years ago and think the case is an original. Still looks like new.
In fact I use an alternate case when traveling with the guitar so Ican preserve the original one..

Steve, so glad to hear you are building these cases. You'll be hearing from me..!!

Guys, don't hesitate...get one of these for your Pak A Seats now..!! Woody Woodell made one for me years ago for a Jack Pack seat. I had that seat for 25 years, and it looked like brand spanking new when I sold it. Not only do they protect your seat in the trailer, they are GREAT for fly dates, AND the big secret is that they double as an amp stand.....and a super light one at that! Puts your amp at just the right height and no extra gear to carry...!! I don't care if you play a Session 500, the case will support it....!!!

Thanks,Joe!

i wish I had gotten Woody to build me a pak-a-set case...my"Jack-Pac"
seat has about had it...best one I ever owned...but 22 years of everyday use with no
case and it is getting kinda shaky...I have another seat now and have it in a case.
I sit my amp on it and it is the perfect height!

Call me if you need anything...it'll be great to talk to you...been a minute.
