I put my OM in a banjo case, you might find one to fit your Hora.
I went with this hard foam case

I also have a hard Kinsman case that I used for a while, but it's a bit big, your Hora is probably longer scale than my OM though.

Wot no catchphrase?
Thanks, Jeremy, that's a good idea. Of the two you mention, one is too small and the other a little big, but a banjo case is certainly something to look at.

I eventually came across the Thomann ABS Banjo Case which reviewers said would fit:

It's snug to say the least. The sharp point of the body took a little persuasion but this area of the case is soft and gives. The strap also has to be carefully positioned to the side of the strings. The bouzouki certainly won't be rattling around.
The case lid aligns reasonably well once the catches are secured. It certainly seems robust and is very good value.
I have that same case! It came with my Cittern. I might upgrade in the future but it's light, fits well, plenty of storage and reasonably protective. The neck seems well supported.
I wish it had a little more interior padding and the exterior is decent but has some flex. I play outside a lot so I primed and painted it an off-white. I'm ok with it especially given how much it would cost to upgrade.

Crossrock cases is customizing a wooden case for my Nyberg OM. Based on their rectangular electric guitar case. Very reasonable. Great customer service so far.
That sounds great! I'm a fan of Crossrock cases and I'd love one for my cittern. Their mastertone banjo case is very close to what I need (diameter and length are perfect, I just might need a little more room where the body meets the neck). Can you share any more about the process of getting a custom case from them?
