Review: Excellent Case - This case is well made. It is roomy for a dreadnaught. I bought a Recording King here at desertcart and there is extra space. It will serve well for storage at home and the occassional trip out with my guitar. If you want something to keep your guitar safe in a plane spend $600. (Calton?) It has plastic latches that swing down and snap. That design avoids the metal pins that stick up and are a danger one must always be careful with. Matching of the rim lip was good all around. Feels solid. I tried a Gator purchased locally from Sam Ash and workmanship and quality were not as good as this case but the fit was tighter but still a little loose. Actual inside measurements: length 42.5 inches, lower bout: 16.5 inches, upper bout: 13.25 inches, body: 22 inches. These measurement are taken without compressing the padding any.
Review: Wonderful case for travel - I purchased this case specifically to travel with my guitar. In the past, I have always been able to carry my guitars on board in their soft gig bags, and store them in somewhere in the cabin. Have never had any flight attendant turn them away. However, I was planning a trip overseas on Cathay Pacific and their website specifically stated that all instruments needed to be in a hard case and that they could not guarantee that it would be accepted in the cabin. Paranoid, I purchased this case for my trip and checked my guitar in, gritting my teeth and hoping and praying that my guitar would come out safely on the other end (keep in mind we had 3 connecting flights). Not only did my guitar make it safely in the case, but the case only had a couple of scuffs on the outside and was otherwise unharmed as well. The TSA lock is a really nice extra. This case is solid, with a firm molded outside and a luxurious soft inside, and some sort of extra padding between the two layers. I have a dreadnought and there is a little extra room for the body (maybe 1/4 inch), but I just stuffed a soft cloth as extra padding and the guitar remained snug. For the price, you cannot beat this case for a travel case.

### ⭐⭐⭐ SKB quality in cases has degraded over the years.
*by C***X on January 30, 2015*

I would say it's more of a 3.5, but couldn't hate on it THAT much.. I recently bought a Taylor 114ce. It came with a gig bag, and I didn't really want a gig bag for the guitar. My dad had this same model number case for a Blueridge BR-85 (dreadnought guitar). My Taylor fit in there nice and snug, but his case is a good 10-15 years old. His case also lines up very well, leaving no gaps at all. Pros I like it's latching system. They're better than the traditional metal clips. It's also pretty sturdy. After getting all the edges alighned it shuts with a fairly good seal. There are some edges that have a tiny bit of a gap, but it's not that bad. Also I like the green plush lining. Cons It doesn't fit my taylor very well.. There is a fairly large gap on each side of the body of the guitar, where it just doesn't fit.. It's pretty far off. I checked SKB's site before ordering this item and they say SKB 18 case is the case for my guitar. I was definitely hoping the fit would be better. It appears SKB isn't the same company they once were. My dad's 10-15 year old case is better quality than this. It shuts properly everytime without having to align. has better seals. The same model number has changed. Also like other people have said. If you push on the center of the case it will indent.. You don't even have to apply a WHOLE lot of preasure. I do still feel that it is much more safe than my taylor gig bag though. All and all, I like the case. I got what I paid for. I could have got a case straight from Taylor that probably would fit my guitar perfect, but that was $200. I only paid $125 for this, and it really isn't that bad. I don't know if I will buy an SKB case in the future though. Quality has clearly degraded over the years. Edit - Just a follow up on my problem with the guitar not fitting. The Taylor I use this guitar for has a cutaway. I've stuffed a scarf in the cutaway and it keeps it secured in the case MUCH better. I shouldn't have to be doing that though. and there is still big gaps on the sides. I took some pictures for a reference.
