There’s been a little thing called ‘the Covid-19 pandemic’ going on for the past three months or so. All ‘non-essential’ businesses in the UK have been closed down by order of the government for the past eight or nine weeks. Many try to keep up with correspondence by home-working, but delays are inevitable when workers are working away from the usual environment.

The lockdown is starting to be eased a little now, and some businesses are beginning to get back nearer to normal, but I’m guessing it’ll be a few weeks before we’re completely out of lockdown. It’s been very difficult for businesses here this past two months, I’d recommend you cut the Hiscox guys a bit of slack until life gets back to normal. They are indeed an honourable company, I’m sure you’ll get a response once we’re over this thing.

In answer to the original question, no the GAD case doesn’t fit the Lowden ‘O’-model. They do have a ‘Jumbo’ case which is made to fit the oversized Gibson guitars like the SJ-200...I think a Lowden ‘O’ would be a loose fit in one of those

The best solution would be to order the correct-sized case for your guitar direct from The Lowden Guitar Co.

The usual disclaimers apply......IMHO, YMMV etc.
