Karura dred case (like new) Comparison pix added (Hiscox and Hoffee)
This is a top-of-the-line, carbon fiber Karura flight case in perfect condition...never taken out of my house. The only “issue” is that it is too beautiful to actually USE! While IMO not a case to take your beater to a gig at the local tavern, there is no better case anywhere (and I have/have had them all) to store or display your prized custom, vintage, or cherished dreadnought. More photos available—please email or PM me. These are about $1200 new. Buy this one for $925, including shipping and insurance (CONUS)

A couple of interesting inquiries so far--but this case is still available.
|
Karura (center) compared to dred cases from Hoffee (bottom) and Hiscox (top). The karura is lighter weight and provides a much slimmer profile than either of these excellent cases. I don’t currently have a Calton dred case—but it probably comes closer to the Karura profile—but weighs CONSIDERALY more.

Apologies! I am once again having difficulty posting photos! Will keep trying. Meanwhile, feel free to email me, and i will send them to you.

Does the case fit a slope shoulder dred? Like a j45?

If you want some photos of those guitars in the case, send me your email address and i will forward them to you. |
Reduced to $875....final price reduction. GREAT CASE!

Please note....I had sold this case over on the Martin forum, but the deal fell through when the purchaser discovered that the Karura case won’t stand on end by itself. As I had never attempted that with this (or any other) case, I did not know that! So in any case, it is now back up for sale. Please feel free to ask any questions. Thanks.

PM's responded to...heading out on vacation for 12 days, so won't be responding for a while.

Case
I know they offer two kinds of latches. Which type does this one have. Hard to tell from the picture.
