Who Still Makes Road Cases for a D10?

Post by Michael Harrington »

I am striking out trying to find a custom road case for my vintage Emmons D10 guitar.

Who is currently making road cases for a D10? Wheels would be a huge plus.

My friend Terry Wood had one made in Columbia Missouri but it was nearly $400.00 He is a forum member if you need to find information.

Red Dirt cases in Texas supplies MSA with their cases.

That's what came with my new MSA and it was a very well made case with wheels.

Calton made a custom for a buddy. Not cheap.

I got a Hatton split case last fall for my old ZB. The main case has wheels. Very happy with it. I'm really glad I got the split, because wheels aren't always a solution... sometimes, you have to pick it up and carry, and it's a lot easier without 20+ pounds of legs and pedals.

case

Post by Wayne Brown »

If your looking for a actual road /flight case designed and built specifically for your guitar. We still do them with or without wheels. 1 or 2 case system with velvet and foamed inside, and all extruded aluminum outside completely riveted.
We just don't have them listed on our site because they are very time consuming therefor A bit on the pricey side and are one of's ...shipping would be as individual as the cases that are made. If you or anyone else would like a quote please PM me and I will do my best. Here is a picture of one I did for my JCH a few Years ago.

The ones in the builders corner that I am currently doing for the 2.0 guitar have been put on hold until I heal up a bit and can get caught up a little.
