skb guitar softcase model case flying v explorer firebird rectangular zippered pouch

Orange, CA (July 25, 2008) -- SKB Corporation has expanded its popular Softcase line. These new cases offer the same rigid foam protection found in SKB’s hardshell cases, along with the style and portability of nylon gig bags. Six new softcase models are being offered, including the two newest designs from SKB, the 1SKB-SC58 for Flying V Type Guitars and the 1SKB-SC63 for Explorer/Firebird Type Guitars.

Here''s the scoop, straight from SKB:

Unlike conventional, rectangular shaped guitar cases, these Softcases employ distinctive designs (both interior and exterior) that mirror the actual shape of these unique instruments, yielding a smaller footprint while cradling the guitars for added protection. The other four models are the 1SKB-SC300 for Baby Taylor/Martin LX; 1SKB-SCFS6 for Universal Shaped Electric Guitars; 1SKB-SC56 for Les Paul Type Guitars; and 1SKB-SCFB4 for Universal Shaped Electric Basses.

Softcase models are manufactured from a rugged, weather resistant 600 Denier ballistic nylon exterior with a hard-core EPS foam interior to provide more substantial protection than a conventional gig bag, at an affordable price. The plush lined interiors also offer full neck support for added protection. All Softcase models include two external zippered pouches, one with numerous internal compartments for organized accessory storage, as well as adjustable padded backpack straps for easy transport.
