I needed a case for my new Sigma acoustic guitar, 000/OM body size. Another Sigma owner here on the Amazon Q & A said this Gator case (model GWE-000AC Hard-Shell Wood Case for Martin Acoustic Guitars Black) fit his Sigma perfectly. I took a chance and am very pleased at the fit and condition of the brand new case. Very plush and nicely padded. Not a scratch on it.
Gator is a very reputable brand and I have owned their cases in the past. My only issues are that it's gone up quite a bit in price and as such it's not as much of a value as it once was. The case is lighter weight than other hard cases I've owned; while it seems less durable and robust that a Martin, Taylor or TKL case, some people might like to save on weight and give up a little strength. My other issue with the case is the latches feel kind of cheap and lightweight and I wonder about longer term opening and closing. I'm glad I'm only using this case to store my guitar in the closet. Overall, I recommend this case and it is a quality product as long as you use it for its intended purpose (i.e., not a flight case).

Quality Hardshell Case from Gator
I needed a case for my new Sigma acoustic guitar, 000/OM body size. Another Sigma owner here on the Amazon Q & A said this Gator case (model GWE-000AC Hard-Shell Wood Case for Martin Acoustic Guitars Black) fit his Sigma perfectly. I took a chance and am very pleased at the fit and condition of the brand new case. Very plush and nicely padded. Not a scratch on it.Gator is a very reputable brand and I have owned their cases in the past. My only issues are that it's gone up quite a bit in price and as such it's not as much of a value as it once was. The case is lighter weight than other hard cases I've owned; while it seems less durable and robust that a Martin, Taylor or TKL case, some people might like to save on weight and give up a little strength. My other issue with the case is the latches feel kind of cheap and lightweight and I wonder about longer term opening and closing. I'm glad I'm only using this case to store my guitar in the closet. Overall, I recommend this case and it is a quality product as long as you use it for its intended purpose (i.e., not a flight case).
