I think its a good idea, the hard part will be coming up with a universal size to fit most CBG's.

there have been some discussions here in the past on this. I got a lot of good photos from guys a while back on a similar discussion. Not sure if it is still in my history of posts though. let me look. Some guys/gals use hard shell acustic cases or build their own. One dude had built some cases out of cardboard.

The few times I've transported mine, I put it in my cheap rifle case. Something like this:

I think you may have something there. I, however, have too many various cases as it is. I've found that they usually fit in either a baritone uke case or a small guitar case (like the baby taylor). I know that Jon Pruett buys cases from Toys R Us (to fit their little tiny guitars).

I've also used paintball gun padded bags for 17" scale instruments.

I've been considering duct tape/ card board for custom cases. Seems like a match to me for some reason.
