330case Help with case for 1968 ES-330 (long neck)

[RatherBeMountainBiking]

I need to buy a new case for my 1968 ES long neck and having trouble figuring out what to buy.  I won't travel with it much, and primarily need a case so that it won't dry out while using humidipaks.

The Gibson Garage recommended I look at 335 cases and I'm getting similar advice from Sweetwater.  What do you recommend?

By the way, here is what I'm estimating from online searching and my measurements.

Try a Gator GW-335 case at a store like Guitar Center. They seem to have a longer headstock pocket, (at least they do in their Les Paul cases) and they are easy to modify if necessary. I had to add 3/4” on the bottom & it worked well………..
