Re: [motm] Road cases

2006-02-19 by Jason Proctor

well, i was joking, but in many ways i would think, or hope, that 
there is a space in the market for an improved case based on the SKB 
design.

the build quality on the SKB case is *crap*. the hinges last about 
maybe 5 cycles if you're really careful, and the mechanism for 
holding the rack in the popped-up position is dodgy to say the least. 
the whole thing is cheap and nasty.

finally the thing is too big for how many U it holds.
