Case for LP faded double cutaway???

[jmoarch]

Hey everyone. I have a LP faded double cutaway and can't seem to find a case for it for under $170 plus shipping and it has to be special order. Being that it's a thin slab body, I don't want to get a regular LP case and have the guitar bobble around in there. Anyone know of a hard case that works and isn't a quarter of the price of the guitar??? Thanks!

Where is the case with which it came?

It didn't come with a case- I believe they only sold these with a crappy gig bag. I got it used but when I used to see it on MF it was sold with a gig bag.

I use a regular Les Paul case for my LP Special double cut, and it doesn't bobble. Fits perfectly.

Does it support the body near the neck ok? The strap button on mine is on the top horn, not on the back of the body like the Special.

I think Cvansickle, hit it right.

Ok, thanks guys. I'm still a bit worried about space behind the thin body up near the neck though. I've seen on other forums that people need to put a folded tshirt or something to fill the space in a regular LP case for a special or junior.

I had to do that with my Melody Maker in a Les Paul case, but the Special is no problem.

I keep mine in an SKB-56. Fits fine.

if there is a gap, keep a small soft cotton towel for cleaning it up after playing or something...couldn't hurt?
