Like you I would mislay them. Generally though most keys appear pressed out of sheet steel (or sh1t alloy) & I expect you could pick those locks with a knitting needle. How many guys have knitting needles? I'm one in the nope category. Edited June 22, 2021 by Sgt. Pepper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm for handle bars. As in the pic by @mihcmac - yeah nice, making me really wish I hadn't sold that L-6S and case now!  They should have given the new ones the handlebar IMO, it's become a classic design.  What sometimes failed on those original cases were the nylon hinges of the closures/clasps, and if that happened there was no replacement other than some sort of steel hinge or a new conventional metal clasp. But like anything - treat it well and it will last. Though I wonder if the new ones are as sturdily built as the old ones.....

Lungimsam Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I had an Sg standard that came in that case. The quality of the Sg was not so good. Case was really nice!!. had a couple Sg standards since. Not great quality. then I got a ‘61 reissue…very nice!!  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
