Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Hard case shaped for single-cutaway electrics. For players who want shell protection for a Les Paul-style body in a car or at a venue.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Gigging players loading a single-cutaway into a van weekly
  • Long-term storage where the guitar needs a rigid shell
  • Anyone whose gear gets stacked or shifted in transit

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Double-cutaway, offset, or Strat-style bodies — the shape won't match
  • Players wanting a light shoulder carry to lessons
  • Anyone needing an airline-rated flight case for checked baggage

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.

Gator GW-LPS Guitar Case for Single Cutaway Electric Guitars Brown construction detail

Detail 01

Single-cutaway shape

The interior is cut to one horn. A double-cutaway guitar leaves the upper horn unsupported and lets the body shift.

Detail 02

13.5 in. lower bout

Matches standard Les Paul-style width. Wider semi-hollow or jumbo-bodied electrics won't seat.

Detail 03

9.5 in. upper and middle bout

The waist and shoulder are tight to a single-cutaway outline, which is what stops the guitar sliding sideways.

Detail 04

4.25 in. body height

Depth suits a solid or slightly carved body. Thicker semi-hollows and chambered bodies may not close flat.

Detail 05

39.5 in. total length

Sized for a standard single-cutaway. Measure headstock tip to strap button, since headstock angle adds length.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Measure lower bout, depth, and total length — 'Les Paul-style' varies between makers
  2. 02No humidifier, strap, or stand included
  3. 03Test-fit the neck support before travel; a loose neck lets the headstock take impact

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Will a Stratocaster fit?

No. A Strat is double-cutaway and the interior here is cut for one horn. The body would sit unsupported and move in transit.

02Can I check it on a flight?

It's a hard case, but it isn't rated as a flight case. Airline handling can exceed what this is built for. Loosen strings if you do.

03Will an SG fit?

No. An SG is double-cutaway with a different outline than the single-cutaway shape this case is molded for.

04Does it fit a semi-hollow like a 335?

Unlikely. At 13.5 in. across the lower bout and 4.25 in. deep, a wider, thicker semi-hollow body won't seat correctly.
