  1. Hi thanks - Flightcase Warehouse - are offering no help over this at all. LATEST UPDATE from the Director at Flightcase Warehouse: "Hi, I have had enquires today asking the question: Are these cases and all their components safe and compatible for nitrocellulose finished Gibson guitars? I have never been asked this question and is obviously from the forum thread that you started and sent me. If I was to answer the question my answer would be ‘ I do not know. It is a £** guitar case and we have sold 100’s with no issues. Obviously on cheaper guitar cases you get cheaper materials. My opinion would be you make the choice. I feel the only way forward is to refund you for the case, which I am happy to do. I will not cover the repair of the guitar. I will only cover the case cost." So that's the customer service from Flightcase Warehouse... The guitar case is clearly advertised as a Les Paul hardcase but is made from materials that directly damage the finish of a Gibson Les Paul. I have contacted some top luthiers as suggested here by other members regarding repair costs and sent photos of damage and have contacted GIbson direct also - Flightcase Warehouse should wake up realise the problem is their hardcase that has caused the damage to my guitar and get this matter resolved. very stressful...
  2. Hi - so recently I checked on one of my guitars been sitting in hardcase for a few months - took her out and noticed the nitrocellulose finish on an area of the neck had blistered / melted /reacted with something (see photos) and noticed where the neck was resting on the case compartment tab handle was the area damaged - same place shape etc. Anyone any ideas? Could this be a reaction to the tab handle material? The case was from Flightcase Warehouse - Spider cases NB. this is a Gibson satin finish also.
