I have 2 of these cases I use with some power amps. I added some rack rails at the back of the case to support the amp and add a speakon panel.
These amps are used with installation work and travel only occasionally. The case is perfect for that. I'm not sure if I would trust it for daily life on the road, for the reasons below.
the butterfly latches only have just enough room to be put in, and closing them can be a bit tricky, but it's ok once you get used to it.
The 7mm plywood feels sturdy enough in this size of case (in thons bigger case it can flex a bit), The aluminium rails are sturdy, as are the handles. But (as with other wooden thon cases I have) the rivets used to connect them to the wood are just punctured through the wood (instead of through a drilled hole), and on the inside, it looks a bit messy, with splinters and bits of wooden shavings on the inside of the case. I had to file them off with a bit of sandpaper and then tape some gaffa over the insides to make sure I wouldn’t get a splinter in the hustle and bustle of a build down, and to stop from wood dust entering the case during transport.
All in all, a decent enough case, especially for this price. But you need to clean the case up a bit before first use, and if you are touring daily, you might look at something slightly sturdier.

Solid quality at a reasonable price

I was looking for a 3 HE rack for my new Glockenklang amp. Everything else i looked at was either cheaply build so i would not have trusted it over a longer time or it was rather expensive. Here you get a well built rack (no cheap plastic) with butterfly fastenings (still the best solution un my opinion) at a reasonable price.
Mounting the amp wasn't a big problem (all the screws you need are in the package) and so after a few minutes everything fitted exactly.
Since then the Thon rack has seen quite a few stages, has always managed ton safe my amp from any posible damage and is still looking good - recommended!

Perfect for its use

Very good quality! I used it for my Lexicon 480L as I needed something to keep it safe in the studio when it was not in use as well as transport it with me in certain live shows. Very easy to carry by myself, light and protects my equipment!
