Very Nice, Very Sturdy Case

After looking everywhere for a solid case to hold my Ibanez AS103, I was severely disappointed in all the options I found. So, out of desperation, I ordered an Ibanez AS100C online, sight unseen. I am very impressed by the quality of this case!!! It's probably the nicest case I own, including the stock case for my Gibson. The axe fits snugly, and I no longer have to worry about dings in my baby. The case has extra feet at the heel, so it stands on it's own whether it's leaned up against a wall or not. Very nice. The hinges are sturdy as well, and the latches are too. I would highly recommend this case for anyone with a Semi-hollow guitar, be it an Ibanez, a Gibson, Epiphone, or whatever. Any slim-bodied semi should fit just fine in this case. If you're not playing an Ibanez, you'll have to deal with the fact that the case says Ibanez on it, but so what.

Decent but thick like an acoustic case

It's better than nothing, and it was hard to find a case for my Ibanez electric guitar. It's ok. The main latch (in the middle by the handle), though, doesn't quite lineup so I have to flex the metal tab. This case is for an Ibanez hollow body electric guitar that's the same thickness as two hollow body Gibson ES446s I own, yet the Ibanez case is way thicker than the Gibson cases. This Ibanez case is so thick it's like a case for an acoustic guitar. It's harder to fit in my trunk (just barely) and I had to adjust some shelves to make room for it. Other cases fit fine but not this fat thing. It's basically a decent over-thick case with a slightly wobbly middle latch. But I couldn't find an alternative (not counting gig bags, which aren't great for hollow body guitars). The guitar for this case lives on stand, not in the case, so I'll only use the case for transportation, and since I use other guitars for gigs, I'll rarely lug this beast around. So whatever.

    This is a perfect fit for my Ibanez As73FM. Not sure what other models it would fit, so be careful before ordering.

    i spent 30 min trying to squeeze all 3 of my ibanez AS guitars into the case. will not fit. body is super tight and headstocks sticks out IF i jammed it in the case it would easily break the headstock. besides not fitting its a beautiful case well made. definitely returning.

  • Nice case - Fits my Casino Like A Glove!

    I bought this hard case because it was $40 less than the Epiphone 335/casino/Riviera case. It's built very nicely by TKL and my Casino fits nice and snug, so it will NOT slide around inside (which would be bad). I'm very happy about this case and have no doubt that it will protect my guitar well.

  • A great case for the price!

    I built a Johnny A clone kit and the purchased the case on the dimensions. Fit very well but could have used a little more padding behind guitar since mine was very thin but arched top. I'll just lay a towel above and below ant it will be great.

  • If you have an Artcore guitar, this is the case for you.

    guitars are not cheap and they vulnerable to damage. keeping them in a case only makes sense

    Not well, this is designed for the AS........For the AX120 I recommend a Musician's Gear Deluxe SGS Solid-Guitar-Style Hardshell Case Black. For the 335, a Epiphone 335 Hardshell Guitar Case.
