Peerless Fitted Case

Peerless has been making quality guitars for quite awhile. Martin Taylor chose them to make a custom model. I think comparing Peerless to other imports in any given price range that they are a step up. Matt Otten, also a great guitarist uses a Peerless. You can see him play this in the attached youtube video.
