Charming mid-century rectangular hard case with classic textured outer and patterned interior—proper “British shop-window” vibe. Structurally sound: the shell is firm, hinges and both latches operate smoothly, and the carry handle is secure. Cosmetically vintage: expected scuffs to the covering, oxidisation to metalwork, a few interior marks/tears near the corners, and general age-staining to the lining. No key included.

Condition

Exterior: scuffs and edge wear; metal corners and latches show rust/patina.

Interior: clean overall with age spots and a few small splits at seams; lid stays intact.

Hardware: hinges/latches functional; handle strong.

Odour: typical dry “old case” smell, nothing damp.

Dimensions (approx.)

  • Outer: 100.5 × 38.5 × 12 cm
  • Inner: 98 × 36 × 11 cm

Likely suited to many vintage slimline/solid-body electrics; please measure your instrument to be sure.

Believed to be made in England based on construction style and fittings. A lovely period piece for storing, displaying, or transporting the right guitar with character.

Postage / Shipping / Import duty / Collection:

  • Postage within the UK is always included in the purchase price (unless otherwise stated in the ad)
  • We offer international shipping options for our customers and it is calculated automatically at checkout.
  • To ensure the safe delivery of your purchase, our gear is meticulously packed with acid-free paper, bubble wrap, parcelling chips, and sturdy double-walled boxes, protecting it from the shocks and knocks that shipments may encounter.
  • If desired, we can ship your purchase fully insured against damage and loss (please enquire for a quote).
  • Any additional charges, such as import duties, that may apply to your shipping address are the sole responsibility of the buyer.
  • For local buyers, we warmly welcome and encourage pickup, especially for high-end and fragile items.
  • If you suspect that the postage cost calculated at checkout is inaccurate, feel free to request a shipping quote for clarification, as shipping quotes may vary.

Returns Policy:

Your satisfaction is important to us. If you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, you have the option to return it to us within 14 days for a refund. Please note the following terms:

  • Original Postage Deduction: The original postage cost will be deducted from the refund amount (this also applies to UK customers).
  • Restocking Fee: A 5% restocking fee will be applied to the refund.
  • Return Expenses: Any expenses related to return postage and customs duty are not covered and remain the responsibility of the buyer.

If you have any questions or need assistance with a return, please feel free to contact us.

Reserving Items:

To accommodate your needs, we gladly offer item reservations for a period of 30 days. To secure the reservation, a non-refundable deposit of 10% of the sale price is required. This deposit ensures that the item will be held exclusively for you during the reservation period. Should you decide to proceed with the purchase, the deposit will be applied towards the total amount. Please feel free to contact us for any inquiries or to arrange an item reservation.

Part-Exchanges and Trades:

We are open to considering part-exchange for high-end gear. However, it's important to note that as a business, we aim to turn a profit, and therefore, the value offered for part-exchange may not match what you could potentially receive by selling your gear privately. Nonetheless, part-exchange can often provide opportunities that budget-conscious buyers might not otherwise have. If you are interested in exploring part-exchange options, please don't hesitate to contact us for further details.

Gear Buy-Back:

We have a heartfelt attachment to the items we purchase and parting with any piece from our collection can be difficult. However, should you choose to sell any gear that was originally purchased from us at a later date, we will always be willing to consider buying it back (within reasonable terms). Feel free to reach out to us if you're interested in exploring the buy-back option or have any questions about the process.
