cmatthes Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 MF is blowing these out...well, because they're UGLY! But they're cheap, and will work for Hamer double and singlecut solidbodies. Hell, do it for Buck Owens! Just a heads-up. Stupid (Patriotic?) Deal of the Day
cmatthes Posted October 22, 2008 Author Posted October 22, 2008 Not everybody wants something that isn't a black, tan, blonde or tweed case. Graphic cases appeal to a relatively small audience, I guess.I personally don't care as long as it protects the guitar and doesn't weigh a ton. Hell, I'd sling a green leopard-skin covered case and not care.Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.Either way, it's a damned good price for a new hardshell case.

Just my opinion.
Thundernotes Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 No experience with the Kaces brand - are they any good compared to a ginnywine Hamer case?
cmatthes Posted October 22, 2008 Author Posted October 22, 2008 Just my opinion. Yep. And what are opinions like, Kiz? It was just a PSA to the board, not an invitation for a debate.

Deal of the Day My '84 Blitz takes offense and says it wishes MF had bass cases Hey Chris...Sarah Palin is driving my neighbor in New Orleans (his house below) up to see you an' they're "bringin' their guns!"

Just my opinion.Any true Patriot that really loves his Country knows that the Flag Code, Section 8h states that the Flag should never be used as a receptacle for receiving, holding, carrying, or delivering anything.
kizanski Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 It was just a PSA to the board, not an invitation for a debate.Well, like the great Alan Funt used to say, "When it's least expected, you're elected. It's your lucky day."You said the cases were ugly, and then you went on to say that you like all different kinds of cases, in fact, you don't care what the case looks like, as long as it protects the guitar.If anything, you're debating with yourself. Make up your mind.
MCChris Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 Any true Patriot that really loves his Country knows that the Flag Code, Section 8h states that the Flag should never be used as a receptacle for receiving, holding, carrying, or delivering anything.That might be a concern if an actual flag was on the case, versus an artist's rendering.

Just my opinion.Any true Patriot that really loves his Country knows that the Flag Code, Section 8h states that the Flag should never be used as a receptacle for receiving, holding, carrying, or delivering anything.Sure, if that were a real flag, but it isn't.In either case, would you call it ugly?
cmatthes Posted October 22, 2008 Author Posted October 22, 2008 Whatever, Kiz.Have some of your Kona coffee or something.
serial Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 I happen to love the orange tolex on the Baker cases.
kizanski Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 I happen to love the orange tolex on the Baker cases.Nah...they're ugly.
atquinn Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 Geez, someone should start a poll or something ! You can mark me down for the ugly vote Thanks for the PSA though. -Austin
gregc Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 I like the Flag case a lot. I'd buy one, but then I'd have to find another place to stash a case..... and I have an issue with case storage currently ( as in there are 10 taking up the space , sitting in the middle of our spare bedroom). I gotta move those before the wife tosses em out the 2nd story window.
elduave Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 You can mark me down for the ugly vote -Austin +1. I don't like "graphic" cases, amps, guitars, etc. I like graphic nudity though, as long as it's not my own. Trousers should be gaudy, not cases.
hamertek98 Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Was there something here about a case? Pray tell.
Submariner85 Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 It says "Free Shipping on items over 49 dollars" This is 49.99After applying the free shipping code, it still charges 13 bux shipping.Would one of these fit a Dean Evo?
cmatthes Posted October 23, 2008 Author Posted October 23, 2008 The deal was for yesterday only, but I'm sure Kiz bought them all anyway. They would most likely work for a Dean EVO. They fit a Les Paul, and most single/double cut Hamers.
kizanski Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 The deal was for yesterday only, but I'm sure Kiz bought them all anyway.Nah...I'm only interested in flags that I can burn, but you should give them a call. They're ready to blow out their back stock of "I (Heart) Power Pop" guitar straps.

Nope, that was the "Experience Hendrix" straps. The power pop straps are long gone.
Stike Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 Hell, I'd sling a green leopard-skin covered case and not care. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. You seen one like that for a Flying V?
DavidE Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 Hell, I'd sling a green leopard-skin covered case and not care. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. You seen one like that for a Flying V? I have soft leopard skin Levys high end gig bags for my LP shaped guitars (including Hamers).
