Re: Which case should I take
This whole kerfuffle is going on in the world of mandolin. A small instrument carried in a small case. The difference in weight from the Calton we have and the Travelite is noticeable but certainly not onerous. Mike's test cuts right to the core of the discussion. I've schlepped mandolins in a Calton up and down hills in camp situations and have always appreciated its protection. If you think a flight case is just so awful a burden to carry around .... pack a gig bag for when you're at camp and protect your instrument in a flight case when you're traveling.
