Good case for a 7/8 size strat?

[Bonfigleo]

Hello all,

I am in the process of building my first guitar.  It is a 7/8 size strat.  I'm wondering what experience people have with cases for these.  Is a standard strat case going to work?

Thanks,
Matt

You may have to settle for a gig bag. Not the end of the world, though. There are some pretty nice ones out there these days. If you'd rather a hardshell, just get a standard Strat case and add some foam in strategic places to keep the thing from swimming around during transport.

That's what I'm going to have to do with the L5S in my sig below. Cases for that essentially don't exist unless you wanna pay a bajillion dollars for a custom made unit, so I'll have to get an ES-series case and add some padding.

Check out the Gator GWE-ELEC case.  A bit on the lower quality side but lot of the Amazon reviews claim it is too short for various guitars so it may be perfect for your 7/8.  Just be sure to purchase from a place with easy returns

Maybe a hard case build for Fender Mustang-like guitars?  :dontknow:

Hey there!

So almost 6 years later now since the initial posting.

Are there any hardcases available specifically for the warmoth 7/8 guitar by now ?

Thanks
Dan

I would recommend just going for a plush-lined rectangular guitar case. Those will fit most instruments.
