Description

The TGI 1997 Woodshell Hardcase is a tough, no-nonsense acoustic guitar case that punches well above its price.

Built with a wooden hard shell, black leatherette outer and plush interior, it’s designed to protect most dreadnought and many 6/12-string or folk/auditorium acoustics on the road, in the van, or around the house. Strong metal clasps, a solid handle and snug internal dimensions give it that “proper hardcase” feel at a wallet-friendly price.

Across multiple retailers, buyers consistently highlight three things: it feels sturdier than they expected for the money, the padding and plush lining protect the guitar well, and the fit on common dreadnoughts is spot on


Key Features

  • Durable wooden hard shell for genuine impact protection

  • Black leatherette outer with accented stitching for a clean, pro look 

  • Plush interior lining (grey/green depending on batch) to protect the finish

  • Strong, durable metal clasps – built to survive regular gig use

  • Solid grab handle – frequently praised in reviews for feeling secure, not flimsy 

  • Internal sizing designed to fit most dreadnought and many 6 & 12-string / folk / orchestra acoustics

  • Great value upgrade from a gig bag for gigging players, students and anyone travelling with their main acoustic
