Can anyone tell me what the little clear, hard plastic tube that is buried in the styrofoam (under the accessory area cover, on the case hinge side) would be for? It's about 1/4" in dia and 2" long.

Thanks

I know but the wife is away and has the camera. Perhaps I can pull something off with the webcam. Good thought on allen wrench storage though. Might just be. Thanks.

nervous,

I can't remember such a config in any of my cases. But then again, there's not much I do remember...

Good concept though!

Hello,

I think it is made to maintain the trap horizontally while the trap is closed.

So simply a standoff of sorts.

I'll post a pic later.

The little "hole"? That's for the long allen Wrench that is needed for non-truss-rod guitars.

On the opposite side you see a little "space" where the "longer piece" of the allen wrench lies.

Sorry, hard to explain for me in english, but that's what it's for.

Best regards,
Kurt

Hah, must quote myself:

"Non-truss-rod guitars" is stupid. What I meant: Guitars without truss rod cover. That are adjusted through the bowl.
