Hi folks,

I am having problems getting a hard foam guitar case for my early sixties Framus Nashville acoustic guitar. The trouble is that Framus made it with a rather long headstock (8 inches nut to tip), and this makes it difficult to find a case with enough space between the nut support and the end. The difference in the Kinsman range is about 3/8 of an inch. I want hard foam, because I intend to backpack it.

Can anyone tell me of a reasonably priced (about £40 - £50) case that would fit the dimensions below.

Overall Length 41 3/4 inches
Lower bout width 15 3/4 inches
Upper bout width 11 1/2 inches
Body length 20 inches
Body Depth 4 inches throughout
Headstock from nut 8 inches.

I am having no joy in getting retailers to check size for me, and am waiting up to a week for e-mail enquiries to be answered. If you have a POD case, please let me know if it might fit, as I haven't had any response at all from the vendors of those. I'm beginning to think they don't want my money.

Thanks guys
Don T.
