Road RunnerRRMCG ABS Molded Classical Guitar Case
1/5
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Molded ABS hard case sized for full-size classical guitars. For players who travel, gig, or store an instrument where a gig bag won't protect it.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Classical guitars going in car trunks or overhead luggage racks
- Students carrying an instrument to weekly lessons year-round
- Long-term storage where a soft bag offers no crush protection
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Steel-string dreadnoughts — the classical shape leaves the wrong gaps
- Players wanting the lightest possible carry to a nearby gig
- Anyone needing airline-checkable rated protection
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
42 inch overall length
Full-size classical footprint. Measure your guitar tip to tail before buying; 3/4-size instruments will shift inside.
Detail 03
17-3/4 inch lower bout width
Standard classical lower bout. A wider-bodied flamenco or crossover may not seat properly.
Detail 04
13-3/4 inch upper bout width
Narrow upper bout matches classical proportions. Guitars with a broader shoulder won't sit flat in the cavity.
Detail 05
6-1/3 inch lower bout depth
Deep enough for standard classical bodies with room for the top to clear the lid without pressing.
Detail 06
Offset body cavity shape
Contoured to a classical outline rather than a rectangle, so the guitar is held in place instead of sliding.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure your guitar's length, bout widths and depth against the case before ordering
- 02Humidifier, straps and locks are separate purchases
- 03ABS shells scuff and mark; a molded case shows use quickly
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit a dreadnought or standard acoustic?
No. The cavity is cut for a classical outline — 17-3/4 inch lower bout, 13-3/4 inch upper bout. A dreadnought's wider waist and shoulder won't seat correctly.
02Is it safe to check on a flight?
It is a molded hard case, not a flight-rated road case. It handles baggage handling better than a gig bag, but no rating here covers checked airline abuse.
03Does it fit a 3/4 or 1/2 size classical?
Not properly. At 42 inches interior length and a 17-3/4 inch lower bout, a smaller student guitar will shift inside. Look for a case sized to that instrument.
04ABS molded versus a wood case — which is better?
ABS handles moisture, impact and scuffs better and generally weighs less. Wood cases tend to feel more rigid and traditional. For transport, the molded shell is the more practical pick.
