What case? S100

[F30]

What hardshell case are you using with your S100 ?

Love to find one of these but they seem to be out of stock everywhere.....maybe out of production.

Guild used to ship the NS S100 in that case but they stopped, presumably to keep the price while lowering the cost.

The Newark St. S-100 case was made by TKL for Guild, in the specs it was called "TKL Deluxe Hardshell Case". So you might want to contact TKL for the case.

This case had chrome hardware outside:

Now the case you pictured was another type, maybe another manufacturer as it looks, it had gold hardware and I almost believe this is a 1990ies case, not a Newark St. case:

Great info as usual Ralf - however - instead of GOLD I'd say BRASS

Great thanks for the info. Just bought an S100 due to the pickup sound. I have 3 Teles with WRHBs which I really like and the HB1s ( which have their own thing going on ) seem to sound clearer and more open ( like the WRHB ) than say a Gibson SG humbucking pickup.

I always found my Gibson SG’s played clean to sound unpleasantly warbly sounding. Like a warm banjo sound. And dead-ish.
Clips of S-100 I heard sounds a lot better to me.

I've always wondered, the reissue Fender wide range humbuckers they came out which I believe was about the same time that Guild went with the fender buckers, I wonder how much of those pups have parts in common.

When I ordered a generic electric case from Guild a number of years ago (but after the move to Oxnard), they were out of stock, but found me one left of this case. Fits my ‘71 S-90 perfectly.
