I'm looking to get a different case for my Kentucky KM-950 (a-style). I currently have a basic TKL case, which currently works ok. The issue I have is that I have a tonegard on my mandolin and I think the fit is a little too snug when trying to close the case, possibly pushing down on the top/bridge a little more than I've comfortable with.
Back when I had another mandolin with a Travelite case, I tried putting the KM-950 in it, but it seemed just a hair too big to fit (body width). I'd maybe have tried to squeeze down some of the padding to see if I could get it to fit, but I was selling the other mandolin with the Travelite, and didn't want to damage it.
Does anyone have any recommendation on a decent hard case that would fit a KM-950 with tonegard? Ideally I'd like to keep the budget under $200 (closer to $100 would be better). I've considered Hiscox, Gator, Superior (wood and fiberglass), among a few others. I also found these Crossrock fiberglass cases on Amazon. No reviews on them, and I can't find much else info on their mandolin cases, though I've seen a few reviews on their uke cases.
Thanks everyone!
