Hi,
I'm looking into buying a new mandolin case. I'd like a hard shell case that has enough storage for a pack of strings and a tuner, and is very protective. I'm interested in the Calton mandolin cases, just want to be sure that that'll work for me before I go buy one. I don't live close to where I can try one out, so thought maybe someone here could give me some good advice! :) Is the case deep enough to keep a tone-gard on the mandolin when put away?
Thanks!
Lucy L

Personally, since Calton cases are on the expensive side, I would call the company and talk to an expert...
We believe in the vision Keith Calton started from his backyard workshop 50 years ago in 1969 –– handcrafting well-made, nearly indestructible cases for devoted Musicians and Collectors. As Keith put it, “For Quality & Endurance”.

They are solid cases and heavy. But they will protect your mandolin. As Tom said, speak to them and they can help.

For less than 1/2 The cost of Carlton, and imoa twice the protection, you can get a Hiscox case.

OP, head on over to MC for an ongoing discussion of Hiscox mandolin case.

Thanks everyone for your input! I ended up going with Calton Cases. They were very easy to work with and the case is perfect!
