Flight Case options for Nord Electro 3 HP

Post by thom0720 »

Hi there, glad to be on this forum.

I just purchased a Nord Electro 3 HP - Hallelujah

I've bought a flight case with it, an MGM case. The case is very lightly built and I'm not sure it can stand being on the road seriously.

I would be interested to know if there's any other alternatives available that I quickly can purchase, since I am due to go on the road on 24 april aleady.
Any standard flight cases that the NE HP 3 can fit in? Does it fit in a regular SKB case? I noticed that the dimensions of the NE3 HP are more or less the same as a Korg Trinity/M3/Yamaha Motif 61 keys... because those boards have 61 keys but a lot of space on the left hand for controllers.

Any suggestions highly appreciated. Tom

Hi Tom -

The SKB 61 key ATA case:

1SKB-4214W

...is the way to go. The fit is nearly perfect. Seems strange that it'd be the 61 key version that fits, but this is because the Nord Electro 3 73 HP doesn't have any pitch/mod wheels to the left of the keys. I own both the NE 3 HP and this SKB case so I know you won't have any problem with getting the keyboard to fit in the case...
