Hello everyone,

I own a T-8 Magnatone Maestro, and the case at this point is shot. I use a rope to hold it closed and carry it as all the latches have busted. The middle handle is also broken and the wooden body of the case is held together by strategically placed duct tape. I'm thinking it might be time for a new case, Any ideas?
Thanks!

It all depends on what you want.

Those Magnatone cases are very heavy.

I travel with a Magnatone Lyric and use a keyboard gig bag with foam rubber to protect the guitar. The gig bag is very light and the guitar is the only weight.

If you want a more permanent solution you may have to have a custom made case. There are people on the SGF that make custom made cases.

One more thought, "Could you replace the latches?"

Good luck.

Aloha, Smile
Don
