Very solid padding (another shot of the guitar, couldn't resist!)



You can see the hygrometer that's velcroed to the "top" left-hand side and the temperature controlled compartment that has two release holes.



Here's a close-up of the temperature control compartment. Depending on whether you need to humidify or de-humidify, you either activitate the humidifying agent (the moisturizer looking bottle) or put the dehumidifying little bags in the supplied red velvet bag.



Hope this helps on those considering an Ameritage case (well worth it in my opinion)
Hmm its really nice- Could you pm me the cost-

Congratulations, Pangpang.
Thank you, that's quite a compliment.

That guitar and case are SICK! I'd be afraid to let it out of the house.

Beautiful.

Hello everyone,

Just checking back. Time flies and it's been a year that I've been on this site. I guess this guitar has really cured my GAS. Still love the guitar, it continues to open up, and the sound just gets better. Only thing I've done is add some buffalo horn bridge pins. But for anyone still wondering about Kronies, it's the real deal!

Wow, great Kronnie. I love Trevors stuff. Can't believe I hadn't seen yours before. It sure is pretty.

I agree...what a stunning example of Trevor's work. I just love the wood combos with this guitar. At first, I didn’t think I would like the vine inlay since I am not a “bling” guy. Looking at the finished product…..man it all works beautifully together!! Happy to hear that you are still enjoying her.

It's a real keeper. It was a result of picking out all of the best of what I had seen on this site and working with Trevor to put it together. The best thing is it sounds as good as it looks

Trevor does a wonderful job. I hope he continues to do well, because he's really good at what he does. He really is an artisan where all his guitars have a beautiful shape from the headplate to the body to the bridge, yet he's able to produce a wonderful sound...

I have had mine for three years now, I guess. Great guitar. I am very happy with it.

I have been thinking of a vine of sorts on one of my builds and I really wanted something that was understated yet still present...and your vine is very much along those lines. Don't be surprised to see something different though along those same vines (Lines I mean LOL) on one of my masterpieces underway.
