Magneezo Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Jim R. said that it will fit in the standard Epiphone SG case. Oh yeah...how 'bout some pics??!! My Gibson SG case looks exactly like my friends Gibson Nighthawk case in shape and contour - sort of like a Hofner violin top meets SG bottom case look. It is a very snug fit but I can tell you right now it's a different build from the Epiphone SG case. I've owned both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plymouth58 Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Pics or it didn't happen ;-) So a standard LP case doesn't fit properly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phred Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 i tried a few different cases, but most are too loose-leaving the guitar moving around in the case. maybe someone from epiphone knows for sure. right now it sits inside a cheap gig bag, but i hate to carry it around in it. help please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXPLORER 2 Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 I just picked up a used brown Les Paul case for my Blues Hawk. The guitar moves around a little bit in the case..not a perfect fit but better protection than a gig bag. Placing a towel under the guitar a filling the void keeps the guitar from moving around..for $65 bucks it was hard to say no for real Gibson case!!!

Gary Moore Tribute Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Heres the nighthawk in an sg case Its snug on the bottom but as you can see open at the top... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hungrycat Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Heres the nighthawk in an sg case *snip* Its snug on the bottom but as you can see open at the top... Then it's not going to move because it's snug in the bottom. Problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
