Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Hard case cut for semi-hollow and thin-body electrics with a 16-inch lower bout. For 335-style players who gig or ship.

Product studySKB SKB-35 Thin-Body Semi-Hollow Guitar Case

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Gigging a 335-style semi-hollow that needs a fitted hard shell
  • Van and trunk transport where a gig bag offers too little
  • Storing a thin-body archtop with support around the body

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Solidbody electric owners — the cavity is too large and loose
  • Full-depth archtop players needing more than 3-3/4 inches of depth
  • Anyone counting ounces on foot commutes

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 01

16 inch lower bout

Matches the standard 335-size semi-hollow. A 17-inch jazz box will not fit.

Detail 02

3-3/4 inch body depth

Cut for thin-body construction. Full-depth hollowbodies at 4 inches or more will not close.

Detail 03

43-5/8 inch interior length

Sets the total headstock-to-endpin clearance. Measure your guitar end to end against this number.

Detail 04

20-3/4 inch body length

Positions the neck block and body support, so the guitar sits without shifting in transit.

Detail 05

10.3 lb case weight

Adds roughly ten pounds to your carry versus a gig bag. Noticeable on long walks.

Detail 06

11-1/2 inch upper bout

Fitted at the waist and shoulders, so a wider-shouldered body will bind in the interior.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Measure your guitar's depth, length, and both bouts against the listed interior dimensions
  2. 02Case only — no accessories, humidifier, or strap included
  3. 03A solidbody will fit loosely and shift, so pad it or choose a different case

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Will this fit a Gibson ES-335?

It is sized for 335-style thin-body semi-hollows: 16 inch lower bout, 3-3/4 inch depth, 20-3/4 inch body length. Measure your specific guitar against those numbers.

02How much does the case weigh?

10.3 pounds empty.

03Will a full-depth hollowbody fit?

No. The interior is 3-3/4 inches deep, which is thin-body only. A full-depth archtop needs more clearance.

04Can I use it for a Les Paul or Strat?

It will physically fit, but the semi-hollow-shaped interior leaves gaps around a solidbody, so the guitar can shift in transit.
