Location: Triangle area, NC | Hey All,
Just purchased an elite T 1778 and looking for a ANY hard czsae that will fit. Like to stay around 50 bucks. Asthetic condition is no issue as long as it still protects the guitar.
Thanks |

Unfortunately the shipping for a case (with or without a guitar)usually runs $40 so you might want to work your local Craigslist and music stores. |

Location: Tidal Mudflats of Virginia | It's a 8158-0 case for a deep, contour and mid depth body. Should fit a Elite-T with no problem, if not, I'll just bring it back home. :) |

I knew that I saved this photo for something.
This came USPS with a Takamine guitar in it.
Everything survived the trip.
It was the biggest thing in the little Postal Jeep. |

I will be down in Durham on Friday afternoon, Feb 24 and heading back on Sunday afternoon. My Saturday is full but can meet up with you on either the front or back side. Will be staying at the Sheraton Imperial Hotel and Convention Center.

Location: Tidal Mudflats of Virginia | Got to meet Paul (Geetarism) today and clear some more unused gear out of the closet. Really nice guy and I filled him with all kinds of tales of our past OFC gatherings. I think it's time for Begg'n Jim to think about putt'n on another Southern Style Jam!!

Location: Triangle area, NC | Same here. I had the pleasure of Tim allowing me to "STEAL" a gorgeous, like-new ovation case. Super friendly and welcoming guy. Many thanks my man! Tim had nothing but great things to say about the OFC members, the gatherings and community as a whole. I am excited to meet other members at a gathering in the future.  |
