Wooks79 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 (edited) Never used them so can't comment, but other places I have had good service from - I used castle cases for the flightcase for my ampeg BA300 115, and couldn't sing their praises highly enough, great fast friendly service, and what I think to be decent prices. I got my GB03 pedal board from The flightcase company, who were also pretty good. Edited April 6, 2011 by Wooks79 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongebob Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I've had 2 cases from them. First was a Fender-style tweed one - under £50 and totally amazing for the price. Has become my take-everywhere case. Second was a small bass-shaped one for home storage. A shade under £40 - and TBH, I would happily take it out of the house if I needed to as well. When you see the tat on E-bay they pass off as hardcases, it makes this place even better. I've paid loads more in the past for inferior products. Superb service, very quick delivery, and great cases at a great price. BTW, I don't work for them or have any affiliation - just a very satisfied customer who will got straight there again if needs be. Good service should be rewarded!

risingson Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Bought a shockmount case from them a while ago, can't fault them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I got my Pedalboard case from them. Good solid case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misrule Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I bought a Boschma 2U shallow from them a few days ago -- their service was good on the phone and they delivered within days, though they charge extra for shipping. Cheers Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I`ve bought a few cases from them. Once, one turned up that was slightly damaged, and the couldn`t have been more helpful in sorting it out for me. The cases themselves are of good quality, and very reasonable. I too bought one of the Fender style tweed cases, and it was very good indeed. The other two cases I`ve bought have been - ahem - guitar cases. Still good though, even if they are for the dark side!

flyfisher Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I bought a mixer flightcase from them last year. I was expecting it to be a couple of weeks for a custom build but it turned out to be in stock and arrived in a couple of days. Looks pretty solid to me, with good solid locks and handles - though I haven't given it the 'falling dow the stairs' test yet. I'd certainly buy from them again.

bassicinstinct Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 [quote name='xgsjx' post='1190748' date='Apr 6 2011, 05:56 PM']I got my Pedalboard case from them. Good solid case.[/quote] Me too. Years ago, they also adapted a used trunk case into flight case for my Ashdown which I needed the same day for a tour at short notice. Highly recommended.

skej21 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Another positive here too. Bought a 3U Flightcase for my Korg DTR1000 and LMIII and never had any problems. Solid and tough as anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickH Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Just bought a 4u case from their budget range. The way the rims on the lids sit into the lips on the case isn't brilliant (I wouldn't expect it to keep any water out) but not bad for the money.

Musicman20 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Bought my Gig Skinz bag from them, cheapest by FAR...quick delivery. Also I have an Orange AD200b Flight Case from them....nice quality. I had a different on for for 2-3 weeks and realised once I needed it and tried to fit the amp, they had made it too small! They asked me to double check sizes and they made a brand new one very quickly. Great company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franzbassist Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Made me a custom flight case for my PJB head. Perfect fit (thanks to my spot on measurements, natch) and built like a tank. Only one item admittedly, but very happy with them and the product, so would recommend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbayne Posted April 6, 2011 Author Share Posted April 6, 2011 Great! Happy BC'ers means order will be placed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Burrito Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I have & I thought the product was great but the service was just "ok". I've since ordered from [url="http://www.hi-speccases.co.uk/index.html"]http://www.hi-speccases.co.uk/index.html[/url] these guys and was knocked off my feet by a 2 day turnaround for a custom order. I have had a few flightcases made and didn't think this was possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidmpires Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I ordered a flight case some years ago from them, for my ampeg cab at the time, and their service was outstanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevB Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Had a custom case made for my Roland PK5 pedals some years ago, it was very well built and since someone picked it up for me in person and paid cash I got a bit of a discount too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huw Foster Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 I've only had an off the shelf pedal case from them, but it's sturdy as anything, reasonably priced and was delivered swiftly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Savage Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Used both them and Castle Cases (both of the main UK maufacturers of flightcases are in Tamworth IIRC, what's up with that?) and would happily go to either of them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skej21 Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Just priced up the same custom flightcase with flightcase warehouse and hi-spec cases. Due to issues with Flightcase warehouse not including VAT in their quote, I've done some calculations and (in this case), Hi-Spec Cases win by saving me £62.40. Order placed Thanks for the tip-off BurritoBass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
