Is it better to hang a guitar or keep it in a case?

Generally speaking, the safest way to store a guitar is in its case—ideally, a good-quality hardshell, as opposed to a gig bag or ill-fitting chipboard case. As obvious as this might seem, if you have multiple guitars, don’t stack them one on top of another in their cases.

Are Gator Cases good?

Gator is the industry specialist and has the track record to back that up. As a hard-shell case with something extra, the Gator GC-Electric-LED is pretty faultless. It has all the features you’d expect from a decent-quality hard case, and the built-in LED is a nice (and genuinely useful) touch.

How do I pick a guitar case?

Fit. The most important thing to make sure of with a hard case or flight case is that your guitar fits in it properly. It should not be able to move around, at all, inside the case. If the guitar can move around it may be damaged if the case gets bumped, falls off something, gets stood on etc.

Is it OK to leave an acoustic guitar out of a case?

Unless you’re humidifying your guitar with a case humidifier, or have small kids or pets running around that may knock it over, it’s perfectly fine to leave a guitar on a stand instead of keeping it in a case when you’re not playing it.

Are hard guitar cases better?

Although soft cases are usually lighter, and therefore easier to carry, a hard guitar case is most suitable for those people who want maximum protection for an instrument.
