jrwoodall Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Hi - I just picked up a Turquoise Wildkat after waiting several years for the right deal. Now looking for the right case. After searching through the posts and seeing some of the problems owners of other guitars have had with non-Epi cases, I thought I would check here to see what cases other Wildkat owners have purchased? I guess Flamekat or Alleykat cases would be the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianh Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Sweetwater has them for $89: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/EHLCS/ Apparently they fit Wildkat and Alleykat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanH Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I had mine from new complete with an Epi case. It fits very snugly and is a nice case. Unless you need a flight proof version I would go for the Epi one as above. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sledge57 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Only problem is Sweetwaters ad say "Notify me when in stock" which it has said every time I've looked there. I got mine of Ebay, cost was $100 with the shipping, not sure if the guy still has them though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrw1960 Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Purchased mine from Sweetwater. Had a 2 month wait before it arrived. Seems that they are in hot demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrwoodall Posted March 20, 2010 Author Share Posted March 20, 2010 Thanks all for the quick reply. Since the epi case seems to be out of stock everywhere, have any of you had success with any of the aftermarket cases, or at a least a gig bag to protect it until the HSC is available? Thanks again!

Thanks again![/quote'] It's such an odd size and shape I wouldn't want mine in any case but the EPI one, put it on your guitar stand until you score a case and play the krap out of it is my suggestion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvar Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Yes, I bought a Wildkat just last week- couldn't find a case for it- I bought the $49. Roadrunner bag at GC. It fits great- has moderate protection. The $39/$59 one's didn't have a good fit. The Wildkat, being mostly a hollowbody anyway, should have had a case included in the price, even if it raised the price some. But...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Epi Kat case is excellent quality and worth tracking down even if that means you have to order it in and wait a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
