Linus27 Posted August 19, 2019 Posted August 19, 2019 Looking to get one of those silver flight cases to keep an amplifier in to transport to gigs. Looking to get one with the removable foam inserts so I can adjust them to fit around the amp head. Anyone got any recommendations on where to buy one from? Quote

Reggaebass Posted August 19, 2019 Posted August 19, 2019 eBay and screwfix also do various size aluminium tool boxes which you could add your own size foam to , I’ve got one with my router in they are quite robust 🙂https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F152951894863 Quote

Bluewine Posted August 20, 2019 Posted August 20, 2019 Our guitarist had one of those flight cases for his amp. It's a pain to load in and out. Blue Quote

Don't get me wrong, if you just need a hard case to protect your amp in a car etc then they're fine ( I have a similar one which I house my GK MB800 in ). However, they aren't up to the rigours of being stacked in vans etc, and honestly don't think they'd actually survive many flights! Quote
bartelby Posted August 21, 2019 Posted August 21, 2019 Thomann have a custom case service. https://www.thomann.de/gb/casefactory.html Quote
Dazm1966 Posted August 21, 2019 Posted August 21, 2019 These people made the case for my stingray back in the 80s. It and they are still going strong. And I’ve just been quoted £60 for a new bespoke foam insert https://5star-cases.com/pro-dj-music/ Quote
