Looking for a dust cover for my 3 neck
My Remington Steelmaster is approximately 34 x 15 inches. Does anyone have a recommendation for a dust cover so i don't have to put it in the case after every session to protect it. Any other suggestions for preserving the quality of this instrument are welcome.

Dank response to Jack's suggestion? I'm sure he meant a freshly laundered bath towel...
I actually use a black towel to cover my psg.
(Freshly laundered, of course.)
(OK, I did wash it in March)

Seriously, I've been using the same white towel (stolen from a Howard Johnson's closer to the middle than the end of the last century) to cover my D-10 Emmons since about 1977. It's getting a little ragged, and it's definitely not a pro cover, but it works for me.Daniel McKee wrote:I've actually used towels before too. Not a pro cover but it works.
Hell, if you've got the dough-re-mi, cover it with mink if you wanna!

For all you old men, "DANK" does not mean dark and wet anymore, it just means cool. As in, "Hey man, that's some DANK weed you got there, you have a DANK shirt on as well".

That's a novel idea. I should have one in a chest somewhere... I think I may get one of the custom made ones for christmas, but if not that sounds really cool. Thanks for your creativity.Glenn Wilde wrote:How's bout a nice Mexican or Indian blanket? I think it would look pretty cool and western myself.
