Never ordered a flight case with wheels. Always purchased mine from Carter when I was playing Carters. Where's a good place to start looking for one? Any ideas out there? Thanks.

Billy, how about trying forumite Kevin Hatton. He builds great cases at a competitive price. I just ordered one from him

Billy,

I'd recommend you look into Red Dirt Cases (formerly Texas Case). Just call 877-724-2531 and ask for Linda.

I bought one (with wheels) for an Emmons PP and I can vouch for their very high quality and good customer service. They have a lighter weight model as well as their standard model. I bought the light weight version and I think it only weighs about 25 pounds!

Look at my reply three or four down from the top

These guys (Case Technology in Mass) made me a split case that has served me well. Look at the design -- it can be used as a single case or split case.

It's a winner in my book. They let you design your own dimensions and features online and give you an estimate on the spot, then follow up with a quote.

Works well for me.
