    Default Recommendations for new case for 1918 A4 Gibson

    I still have the original hardcase for my mandolin, but the latches are not trustworthy. I would like to buy a new hardsided case (<$200) but not sure how to tell if it will fit for this vintage mandolin - any recommendations? or guidance on how to tell if it will fit?
    Have been looking online - but I am afraid to order something and get it - and it won't work.

    The new FG Eastmans* fit F4 & F5, and so will also fit A Jr 2,3,4 & A5..
    and be dry in the rain inside .

    and offer D rings to back pack carry it ..

    & Fiberglass bumperstickers are more compatible, than on the Pebbly texture vinyl covering on Wooden cases.

    *they're right around $200 ~250
