Post by randy »

Hello,

Randy

Totally agree with that choice. A mate has just got a swan case for his Stage 3 88. Top quality. Plus of course you can get it in red!

Not a bad deal for an ATA case! I am also looking at the Gator hardshell plastic cases too but I think these are more expensive

Someone on another post had an interesting alternative - use the Nord soft case in conjunction with a Pelican rifle case. Apparently there is a rifle case, without the interior foam, that will allow you to snuggly hold your NS3C (in soft case) and leave a little room at the end for pedals and cables... Don't need a hard case for a gig or rehearsal, pull the NS3 (already in the gig bag) out of the Pelican rifle case and go!

SKB iSeries 76 is the way to go. Available through a bunch of places but sweet water link below.

I have 2 of them for both of my live boards and will never look back. Light enough to schlep to a rehearsal without risking an expensive instrument in a soft shell case and its waterproof, has great handles, and you have space for a pedal or a few cables at each end with the adjustable feet. I've flown with it too... maybe not recommended but I've never had a problem with it in 5 years of flying and running around the country with it.

Yes, great cases. I have one from Flight Case Warehouse in UK for my Triton Extreme 61.
I opted for Astroboard rather than the Hexboard as it's a fair bit lighter but still sturdy.
