Ibanez AS100C - Hard Shell Case for AS / AFS / AFD Hollow-Body Electric Guitars

The original case for my AS-200 might be best characterized as semi-hard shell. It creaked when you picked it up, and the cover had started to peel off in places, so when I had the 41 year-old guitar refurbished, I treated it to a new case. It fits well, and Ibanez is not exactly like other semi-hollows. It's a little big on the lower 'bout. The latches align well, and the case affords enough protection for around-town gigs. As airport luggage I'd double-box or at least wrap the guitar's headstock to prevent movement. The case is a true hard-body. The shell isn't thick but seems strong. It is deeper than it needs to be: the neck inclines as it sets in the case. My only disappointment was in itself, that my particular case was clearly an open-box (tears in the plastic bag the case was in, box had been opened) and should have been sold as such. Couldn't find damage to the case itself, or I would have returned it. Maybe get this case but from another source?
