Bloozman Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Does anyone know of an aftermarket case for the Johnny A? The factory Lizard case is too nice to haul around to gigs. I was hoping for a molded case from some mfr. Anyone?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPDEN Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 There are several manufactures on good quality after-market cases. You will spend a bit more to alot more depending on the manufactrurer and if you custom order. Start with calling Gibson customer service and ask if they have a matching case reference they can refer you to which may dave some time checking with different manufacturers...

Bloozman Posted April 15, 2008 Author Share Posted April 15, 2008 Dennis..The only company making a case for the Johnny A that Gibson is aware of is TKL, and they only make the Lizard case..SKB etc, don't. Thats why I was asking. I don't want one of those horrendous Flight cases that weigh 50 lbs. Just a nice case for gigging around town..Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPDEN Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Ok, than I'll guess it's safe to assume you already tried SKB and the other usual suspects too? Your only oter options are to either use what you have very carefully; Use what you have and buy a second OEM Johnny A case that you keep stored to have one for gigging and one kept away in mint condition; Or finally, locate someone who can build you a case that will fit your Johhny A. model where you can pick the materials used. Obviously keeping the guitar protected from damage is a paramount goal, and a quality case is your best insurance. Just put into perspective what a repair could entail and the loss of value in your guitar or a repair from a mishap. At that point the cost of a good case becomes less of an issue when keeping these factors in mind. If it were me, I'd just by a spare OEM Johnny A. case.

Bloozman Posted April 17, 2008 Author Share Posted April 17, 2008 Im gonna call TKL and see if they will make the case with their standard covering. This way I can keep that georgeous Lizard case in storage in case I ever sell the axe. The other case can take the beating!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
