What matters in use

Cut for a double-cutaway semi-hollow outline. A Les Paul or Strat will shift inside it.

Rigid protection against crushing and impact, unlike a padded gig bag.
Detail 03
Deeper cavity than a solidbody case to clear the thicker body without pressing on the top.

Heats up fast in sun. Heat and humidity swings are hard on glued semi-hollow joints.
Detail 05
Hardshells are heavier than gig bags. Expect one-handed carrying, not shoulder or back carry.

Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
The 335 body outline is the same general shape, but interior fit varies by maker. Compare your guitar's body width, depth, and overall length to the case before assuming it drops in.
Not safely. The 335 interior is wider through the body and shaped for a double cutaway, so a Les Paul slides around inside. Use a case cut for your guitar's outline.
A full-depth archtop is thicker than a 335-style semi-hollow and generally will not close properly. Check your body depth first; semi-hollow cases are cut shallower.
Hardshell cases weigh noticeably more than gig bags. That weight is the tradeoff for a rigid shell that survives being dropped or stacked under other gear.
