Lovely- case but a generic size
I got this case for my vintage JE Dallas openback banjo. I love the looks and finish but unlike guitars, Banjos - particualrly older ones come in many different sizes and my banjo is "swimming" a little in this case. It is an 11" open back but i get the impression this case is sized for a resonator banjo so even with the coushin the banjo moves when you pick the case up etc. i'd prefer a more snug fit so buying this "unseen" has resulted in a case that is maybe not as protective as i'd like. I so love the look of this but would have preferred if Gator had provided some size options as other manufacturers do: resonator, 11" pot, 12" pot etc.

Decent case
this case looks awesome and it's all that matters.
I just wanted a hard case for my 1991 Deering Deluxe so i got it. The banjo sits at home never gets out. Quality is so and so, a bit filmsy, if i was to bring my instrument around to gigs here and there i would look somewhere else. Back in the day cases where like this after all. But 4 today's standards it's not the best protection. Locks work perfectly and the plush inside is very good, it's the outer shell that i wouldn't trust too much. But that's just my 2 cents.
