Case For A Baritone
Where do you get a case for a Baritone Guitar?
Thinking about an Alvarez ABT60. I did a quick Google search and didn't find any.

Matt Mustapick's came in a Cedar Creek case. I don't know if it was custom or not.

unless they are quite long scale, the ones i've saw fit in the regular size case that fits the body style.
such as a taylor baritone fits in the regular taylor GS case not sure what the body style is on the alvarez(probably jumbo). another option is a gigbag-taylor makes or made some very nice thickly padded jumbo cases some time back, you can find those on musiciansfriend and such-i have one i might sell, brand new, black, nice zippered multi pockets on the outside(not velcro). can send you dimensions if you like. good luck d |

When I purchased my Alvarez baritone from Maple Street Guitars I ordered it with the case they offer. It is an Alvarez branded jumbo case with arched top. I believe it was about $100, pretty decent quality, 4 latches. Have a picture or two of the case on my Iphone, PM me your email address and I will forward it to you. When I get home later on tonight I will see what model number it is.

When I read the thread title I was thinking the question was going to be how to make a case for buying a baritone guitar!

I'm trying to make a case for owning one and if I do get one I will need a case for it. It's all so complicated! Thanks for the responses everyone.

Gig bag?
Has anybody come across a gig bag that will fit the Alvarez ABT60? It's hard to find gig bag dimensions online, but many of those I found that call themselves super jumbo are actually at least an inch too narrow.
I'll buy the Alvarez hardshell JC1 if I have too, but I'd prefer something that's easier to store when I'm not using it, and I really don't need the protection of a hardshell case.

I got the Alvarez case and the guitar at Maple Street.
The case looks nice but the latches are terrible. It takes 2 hands to close and latch the case. Levy Soft Cases are nice. There are a lot of choices. I have a buddy that got one for his Guild Jumbo. http://www.levysleathers.com/browse;cat,869;Bags

Thanks Wade.
I'll look into that. It's a shame that the Alvarez case has such poor latches.

You will be able to get by with a 12 string guitar case as well if you don't want to spend custom dollars. Look at the dimensions on the case info, you'll be able to pick one up for a lot less than a custom, that's for sure.

Depending on scale, you might be able to get by with a 12-string case for the body style.
