I want to get a new case for my D40C.
I actually suspect that the OHSC I have isn't really the original HSC. It has no Guild logo or marking anywhere, and it's kind of plain next to the case that came with my Mark II and the new Savoy 150A. All of the real Guild cases I have seen are kind of "plush." The one that came with my D40C is padded, but in a blue collar sort of way. Add that to the missing Guild label, and the fact that I am pretty sure the bridge came cut low due to neck misalignment from RI, and I'm thinking I bought a "B" stock guitar 36 years ago without knowing it.
Anyway... The case is really showing its wear, and I'd like to upgrade it. I went on the Guild website thinking I could buy one of the cases for their new D40 -- it even hints that it "might" work with the historic models. But they are "out of stock."
If I wanted to buy a 3rd party case that was as close the the real deal as possible, where should I look? Any ideas?
Thx!
