$900? I'll just hire an armed security guard. (No put down intended. I'm sure they are excellent cases.)

Yeah, they are kind of pricey. But, the insulated case Jeff put together for me allows me, among other things, to leave my guitar in the truck for awhile without worry. Without the Hoffee's features, during the summer,the guitar would be toast. So would the security guard.

I may have a classical coming sometime this summer, so I am glad to see Jeff Hoffee post this here, about what his business is bringing to the marketplace.

Jeff, can you give us more info right here on the AGF?

Thanks!

I was on the fence with buying a Hoffee case YEARS ago when they were about half the price they are today. Should have pulled the trigger.

Alas, yet another regret to add to the list.

Beautiful cases.

I don't know about that. I have one of the older cases, and I think the new ones are head and shoulders over the older ones. Not that the old one was bad, but he was still learning what makes a great case.

Good cases for those who need the protection they offer.
