I have a 1953-54 CG and it's case is just too far gone to save.
Where would you suggest I get a case. Also, I'm not wealthy, cost is a factor to some extent.
Advice welcome. Thanks _________________ RICK ABBOTT

I've found some of the 54 key keyboard cases short enough and reasonable. I usually look on Musicans Freind first _________________ www.deluxe34.com lap steel stands, Clinesmith, Gibson Console Grande, Northwesterns, The Best Westerns

Thanks, Mark. That's on the list as a possibility.
Does anyone do repairs? Someone who has the tools and know-how might be able to fix it. It ain't me. _________________ RICK ABBOTT

Kevin Hatton built me a case for my Fender Custom Triple. I'm very happy with it. |

I'll have to contact him to see if he would build for a Gibson Console Grande. He advertises Fender cases and several pedal guitar brands, but not Gibson explicitly.
Good idea, I'll email him. _________________ RICK ABBOTT

I think Wade Thomas would be more than happy to build you a case.  |

I don't have any contact info. I searched and found a couple posts on the "old Forum." Do you have any contact info, Erv? _________________ RICK ABBOTT

Or do a search here on the Forum for "Wade Thomas"
and it will bring up his name and you can either PM him or send an email.
