As I noted earlier in the thread, I keep my steel on its side while in this case, specifically to keep the pressure of the fingers. That said, I believe the old Dan Bentley (now Brand X) cases have the steel sitting directly down in the foam without ill effect.
I've carried my guitars in Bentley/Brand X cases for about 15 years with no damage to the fingers on any of them...I've made Brand X cases for several people on this forum with no reports of damage to anybody's guitar.

Nope, it's just one main compartment, legs still go in typical leg bag next to the pedal rack like they would in a normal case. There is a small outside pocket on one side (not padded), it's about 16"x 6", big enough for a couple of cables or some smaller odds and ends

Looks like a keyboard case. Great idea. If it has wheels all the better
