Hello,


Anyone know of a resonably priced place to pick up a case for an Art&Lutherie Ami parlor style guitar?


Thanks,


Ray

If you havent already done so, Give Nancy a call over at Ameritage. You will be amazed at how reasonable they can be with custom made cases.

I have a similar case, also built in the same factory, same specs, same price roughly ... it's designed to fit Martin 0 (about 13.5 lower), black with green crush inside, it was custom ordered by my local supplier, and its possible he may have more .. try Heinls violin shop in Toronto.

Nope .. not likely .. the std TKLs are mostly made at a factory in Quebec, not sure the name. Most likely because at one point in time, the dollar made it very economical to do so ... slipping .. slipping

I know for a fact that the same case was cheaper here than in the US (got to talking with Andrew White at one of the Cdn shows) .. shipping and border handling likely accounted for some of the differences. Not surprising.... lots of stuff is more here than in the US when made there.
