NCD: Hoffee Splatter

[Erithon]

Today I picked up this beauty from Jeff Hoffee:



The splatter finish turned out better than I had hoped. I am very pleased. Special shout out to Jeanne Kukich of the Franklin Guitar Co. for facilitating this order. And to BlindBoyJimi for selling me the Franklin OM that now resides in this case

Thank you, Don Liv!

Very cool case!! I guess that one doesn't need stickers to make it stand out.

Definitely won't be losing that at the airport

Hope you're well buddy!

@Goat Mick and Dustin: haha no, I'd have to really try to lose this one

Being previously ignorant of Mr. Hoffee’s existence, I read the title of the thread as “coffee splatter”. I was pleased to see that the actual item in question is far more visually pleasing!

bahaha I love that
Yes, thankfully the final product is a little more colorful than just brown.

Very nice Hoffee! Jeff makes a great case.

[Kerbie]

I like it! It has a personality all its own.

[FormerFoodie]

This totally rocks. I love how you went with the light blue/turquoise base!

I love even more that there's a Franklin in the case!

Congrats on an awesome case!!!!

lol! Easy to spot that case on the conveyor belt for sure.

Erithon, I think it's an acquired taste . The more I look at it, the more I like it.

[Goodallboy]

Great looking case! Love the base color and splatter!

[Erithon]

Thank you, all! Now I have to get rid of that new case smell. Any suggestions?

I have the same reaction, actually. My instinct was to go with complementary colors (white, dark blue) just one contrasting color (yellow) because I felt that would keep it from being too busy. But my sister convinced me to add in a second contrasting color (orange) to add more visual interest and dynamism. When I first saw the case I wasn't sure about the orange, but now I like it. I see what she means in terms of making it pop.

Jackson Pollack is smiling down on you! Fantastic!
