OK, not a cigar box and not homemade but some cheap Chinese stuff that I wanted to share with y'all. Worth it? Maybe for some folks. It was for me just looking for a case. Here's a similar one on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Perfect-4-4-Full-Size-Acousti...

I too was looking for cases, but for ukes. Found 2 of these foddles with cases at the flea market for 25 bucks each. Kept the cases donated the fiddles to a friend who is a nurse and is going to Afganiststan and will use them to teach young girls there to play. Her mother found a local music store willing to donate new cases.

Cheers to the amazing Chinese. I have many parts, instruments and quality relationships with the Chinese.

Get a fiddle case, and oh! Just throw in the fiddle and bow. Sounds fiddle to me, plastic or not! Of course, in the hands of a great player, it sounds very nice to my ears! Great find Jim, and thanks for sharing! It's worth keeping your eyes open for deals!

oops, PAST builds is what I meant. That's two LaBatt's typing skills right there!

Comment by Jim Morris on October 2, 2017 at 12:33pm

Yup Pick! Plus, I figured if this thing sucked bad enough I could use the case and then steal from your psst builds and put a 3 string neck on the composite body. But hey, the whole thing ain't as bad as I thought it would be!
