Thomann Acoustic Guitar Case Jumbo

The Jumbo Case is exactly as described. well constructed with plenty of padding, deep and with a fair sized internal pocket. However, there is sufficient room to have made that pocket a little bigger. It has 5 catches of which 2 are locking and two hinges. Lets not be silly here, This case is adequate for protecting your guitar however for a gigging touring player I personally wouldnt expect this case to last too long. But what are you expecting for the price ? I purchased this case for the Harley Benton Big Tone Guitar, I asked If The Case Would Fit The Guitar, In Short, The guitar fits the case with about 5 cm all around, Not a major problem as I will make packers to wedge the guitar to stop it from sliding. I have never had any problems with any purchases from Thomann but think that they should have a recommended section linked to the guitars showing cases. I was a quite disappointed because I expected the case to be a better fit. Obviously, I understand that a guitar such as the big tone is a cheap guitar but I think it should be explained that the case is not a perfect fit. I could have got a case for this guitar locally that would have fit better and in time will probably do so. Not your best Thomann. Sorry

I'm currently comparing this with the Gibson case for e-guitar and the materials used feel a lot cheaper.

I'm quite sure it will protect the guitar in case of small to medium impacts but I wouldn't go further than that.

The guitar fits quite nicely inside and it also has a drawer for storing various accessories.

The one flaw I managed to find so far is the plastic coating that is supposed to imitate leather. It doesn't and it feels like the crappy plastic from the dashboard of some low-cost cars.

I would still recommend this as even thought the materials feel like they are low quality, unless you're plating the actual case (I don't think it sounds that great) it shouldn't bother you. At the end of the day, you put your guitar inside, throw it in the car and get it out when you need to.

Great Jumbo case, very good value for money and offers good protection for everyday travels without going the more expensive ABS route or taking the risk on a soft gig bag. It's quite a generic size and shape, should fit most jumbo guitars. My takamine jumbo fits reasonably loosely but there is plenty of padding inside the case and the guitar is certainly well protected in transit. I'd have no worries at all about its safety in a car boot, train, carried by hand, etc, but not quite enough confidence to throw it in the hold of an aeroplane, it would need to be made of stronger stuff for that.

Nice faux leather finish, good deep
Internal pocket, keys and and strong clasps mean this case can take a lot of punishment. I've had this model for several years now and it's protected my main gigging guitar to and from many shows. It's picked up wear and tear from life on the road, but hasn't shown any problems in build quality or how well it works.

A little on the big, chunky side, but after all it's a case for a jumbo. If you're looking for good protection and decent build quality you could do much worse, especially for the price.

I was advised by the good folk at Thomann that this guitar case would fit the jumbo electro-acoustic that I was purchasing at the same time, and they were, of course, correct. In fact, it fits beautifully.

The exterior is finished with a tolex-type covering that appears to be thick enough to resist most scrapes and knocks, and is finished off with attractive white stitching.

The carrying handle is comfortable, although I would have preferred it to be situated a few inches lower, ie on the outside of the upper bout rather than between the bout and neck, but that's probably just me!

The case has four latches in total, three on the handle side and one on the lower bottom bout. The middle of the three latches also has a 'lock' with supplied key. However, the 'lock' is easily opened with a nail file or similar small blade or screwdriver. I would hope that in the future a better, more secure 'lock' could be used, even if it added a little to the price of the case.

On the subject of security, I noticed recently by accident, that with the case closed, I could easily insert my fingers into the case on the hinge side. (I didn't want to damage it by trying the get my whole hand in!)
It appears this results from the case being fitted with only two hinges that are some distance apart.
It may be that the shape of the case limits the number of hinges, in which case, I would suggest an additional latch between the two, preferably lockable for added security.

The interior is very nice, finished with a heavily padded velvet-like fabric and the usual neck support/accesory compartment, which provides ample space for packs of strings, picks and other necessities.

I wasn't expecting Fort Knox security or the ability to withstand being run over by a steamroller, so I'm pleased with this purchase and for the price being asked for this case, it's a good buy. However, if the security issues were addressed for a small increase in price, this would be a great buy!
