Cheap hardcases?

[thedarxide]

I'm after a couple of hardcases that are to be used in the house only for storage, what are the cheapest you've come across?

Hi, how long do these take to deliver?

[GreeneKing]

The FCW one are very quick indeed. Brilliantly quick in fact.

They're not huge but fitted and suit Fender:

Cheers for the reply, Peter. This thread will get them a few sales.

I *really* appreciate the offer but I'm over Milton Keynes way, and my Granny in Bath passed away a few years ago. Shame, it was an excuse to visit this awesome 2nd hand vinyl shop....

Anyone tried a Sterling in one of these? My current case is a huge thing and is really awkward when using public transport to get to rehearsals. These shaped ones might be ideal. The only thing I'd be worried about is that there doesn't seem to be much space between the outside edge of the case and the bass itself; if it were to take a big-ish knock I'm not sure it would prevent damge (there doesn't seem to be much "crumple zone").

Does the compartment in the middle accomodate a packaged set of strings? (My current case is huge but oddly doesn't have a compartment large enough for strings!)
