Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Wood-shell hard case for full-size classical guitars. For players who mostly store and occasionally transport, and want a traditional case.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Home and closet storage where the guitar sits for long stretches
  • Occasional trips to lessons, rehearsals or a repair shop
  • Players who prefer the feel and rigidity of a wood shell

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Steel-string acoustics — the interior is cut for a classical body
  • Frequent flyers and touring players hard on gear
  • Anyone prioritizing lowest carry weight

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.

Road Runner RRDWAC Deluxe Wood Classical Case construction detail

Detail 01

Wood shell construction

Plywood shell is rigid and holds its shape under shelf load, but absorbs moisture and dents rather than flexing back.

Detail 02

41 inch interior length

Total inside length nose to tail. Your guitar must measure under this, including the headstock.

Detail 03

22 inch interior body length

Body cavity only, not counting the neck channel. Classical bodies run near this — measure yours before ordering.

Detail 04

19 inch instrument lower bout

Maximum lower bout it accepts. Wider than typical classical, so flamenco and crossover bodies usually clear.

Detail 05

17 inch instrument upper bout

Generous upper bout clearance. Guitars with broad shoulders will seat where a tighter classical case would bind.

Detail 06

4.25 inch instrument body depth

Depth limit at the body. Deep-bodied classicals push close to this — check your guitar's side depth at the tail block.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Measure body length, both bouts and side depth before ordering — the fit is dimension-specific
  2. 02No humidifier, strap or lock included
  3. 03Wood shells take on moisture; do not store in a damp basement or garage

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Will a dreadnought fit in this case?

It is built for a classical body. A dreadnought's different waist and shoulder placement means it won't seat correctly even where the raw bout numbers look close.

02How does this compare to the ABS molded classical case?

Wood feels more rigid and traditional and suits storage. ABS handles rain, scuffs and knocks better for regular transport. Both are priced within a few dollars of each other.

03Can I check this on an airplane?

It is not built as a flight case. Wood shells crack under baggage handling. For air travel, use a case rated for it or carry the guitar on.

04Does it hold a cutaway classical or crossover?

The interior accepts up to a 19 inch lower bout and 17 inch upper bout, which covers most crossover bodies. Measure your instrument's bouts and depth to confirm.
