GatorGC-SGS Deluxe ABS Electric Guitar Case
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Molded ABS hard case for double-cutaway electric guitars. For players who want real shell protection without an ATA flight case.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Gigging with a double-cutaway electric several nights a week
- Long car and van trips where a gig bag is not enough
- Storing a guitar safely between playing sessions
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Single-cutaway, offset or oddly shaped bodies
- Airline checked baggage — that calls for an ATA-rated case
- Players who need to carry a guitar on their back
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Fitted for double cutaway
Interior is shaped to that body outline. A Les Paul-style single cutaway will not seat correctly.
Detail 03
Hard case, not a gig bag
The guitar is held in place rather than cushioned, so it survives being set down hard.
Detail 04
Deluxe tier
Above Gator's basic hard cases in hardware and interior fit, below their ATA road cases.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check your guitar's body outline against a double-cutaway shape before ordering
- 02Confirm headstock length fits — pointed and extended headstocks often do not
- 03No shoulder straps; this carries by handle only
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit a Les Paul?
No. It is molded for double-cutaway bodies. A single-cutaway body will not sit properly in the interior.
02Is ABS as strong as a wood case?
ABS resists impact and cracking well and weighs less than plywood. For air travel, step up to an ATA-rated case.
03Can I check it on a plane?
Not recommended. Use an ATA-rated flight case for checked baggage.
04Does it fit a Strat-style guitar?
A standard double-cutaway solidbody should seat correctly. Compare your guitar's outline and headstock length to the case interior first.
