Case Size / Model Help?

[Boomerang~Junkie]

I need some hard shell case model / fitting help from someone more knowledgeable the me.

I'm trying to get a nice hard shell case for a guitar that is very close to the same size as my Newport 90. The guitar in question fits perfectly in the Newport 90's, factory TKL HSC, but I can't seem to find the model number for that case. Also - TKL cases are really nice, but are also a bit pricey.

I'd like to find a lower priced, nice hard shell case on GuitarFetish or some other reputable website, but most of their cases don't show interior dimensions - or any dimensions at all. The lower bout is approximately 14.25 wide. Also -- what other guitar makes/models are close to the same general size as a Newport 90 for a correct fit - in case they reference them instead of posting the dang dimensions? I know an ES-335 is 16.00 wide at the lower bout, so it is going to be too big.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

I wish I knew.

I've got a Talladega that came to me without a case that fits my Newport's case pretty well, so I'm also in the market for what you are.

Good luck!

Kim Keller or Jol would know, the latter can be found on Facebook.

I don't do FB.

If he has it posted for public use, would someone please PM me Jol's number?

Thanks.

Included below is a link to a 2009 Hamer price list that includes the associated TKL case model information.

Got that part. Thank you for posting that link. So the factory Newport cases from TKL are model number GC4-0.

If I recall correctly these are not that easy to locate and do not show up on TKL's website.

Now to call TKL.

ETA: It looks like it might be the same approximate size as an ES 339.

Thanks again.
