Just in!
Got my new case in from Hugh Briley and WOW is all I can say!
There are the best and aesthetically perfect cases I have ever laid eyes on.
Thanks Hugh for a superior product!

Thanks Charley for allowing me to build your case. You are a super guy to deal with. Enjoyed the chats. I hope you don't mind me showing off your case.
Thanks
Hugh

I have to agree with Charlie. Hugh made a split case for my ShoBud Pro-II and it is top quality. Inside and out. And made with rivets, too. I love it.

Hugh,
Enjoyed the chats too. It was a great dealing with you on this venture. Please let me know if you get this way….always got two guitars set up ready to play and cold beverages in the cooler.
Thanks a bunch for the case.
Charley

Great to work with you Charley. Sounds like a plan if I get a chance to travel that way. Would enjoy going to the South Carolina Steel Guitar jam. Say hello to Joe Turner for me. Thanks again for the order. I really appreciate your business.
Hugh

| Recently after having some back issues but being very devoted to my Emmons,I decided that,rather than go to a lighter guitar,I'd go with split cases for my Legrande II & see if it helped.I like supporting NC businesses,since I'm originally from the Raleigh/Apex NC area so I went with a case from Hugh Briley.Got it yesterday and like Charley,WOW is the first word that comes to mind.Proud to finally own one after reading so many great reviews.Beautiful case.Since I started playing pedal steel in 1975,I've been through a lot of cases & this is,without a doubt,the best one I've owned.Splitting up the weight is a big help for me (& my back)Thanks Hugh ! |

They look like great, sturdy cases unlike the Flimsey one I received from another case maker recently after much aggravation. I hope this kind of customer praise increases your business and customer satisfaction. Nice to see!

I recently bought an Emmons S10 with split cases from Mr. Briley.
They were what I would describe as a work of art. I have no idea of what the price was but they are certainly perfectly made, I could not find anything at all to criticize. Fit and finish was perfect with very high quality materials used throughout, and plenty of hardware bracing used where it was needed.
Well done, sir. |

Amen to all the praises for Hugh's work. And he and his wife Barbra are great supporters for live music in our area.

Thank you all for those kind words. Thank you all for working with me to build the best cases possible for your guitars. They are all a valuable treasure. You are all valuable customers and friends. Clyde is a life time hero of mine. Sid I hope to get to visit with you soon along with our buddy Billy. Some are repeat customers. You all have made it possible for me to continue to work. Thank you all.
Hugh
