Hardshell case for a cigar box ukulele

January 20, 2020 8:41 AM

I’ve been thinking about getting a cigar box ukulele, and I a would like to get a hardshell case to go with it. The luthier selling cigar box ukuleles doesn’t carry cases at all, and all the hard cases I’ve found have been in the traditional shape. Where should I look for a square/rectangular ukulele case?

I checked Bohemian Guitars and Eddy Finn. They both carry soft cases for square ukes, but no hard cases.

SKB and Pelican make cases in a ton of different sizes. Many come with pick and pluck foam so you can make them for whatever you want.

I’ve made cases for my ukuleles out of vintage suitcases. Give it a try!
