TonySFLDLTHR Report post Posted April 4, 2018 Denny Lowe is our resident master craftsman and, with a little help, he creates nearly all of our new patterns and kits. His latest project is making a guitar case, a project he’s never tried before. Here’s a peek into his process. http://springfieldleather.tk/post/172567718649/making-a-leather-pattern-with-denny-lowe Just wanted to share this with you here. Thanks!

Bodean Report post Posted April 4, 2018 Awesome write up on the process. I had someone ask me about making one of those one time. I quoted a price, and that ended that. That is a 2 percent piece. Only 2 percent could really afford it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wyowind Report post Posted April 4, 2018 That is beautiful!!! Ya know... That looks like it would be a perfect fit for one of my guitars. So if you find it takes up too much room in your shop, you can just send it my way... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully we can get a few things made out of the Shell Cordovan we got in and I can show you some of that as well! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BDAZ Report post Posted May 9, 2018 Was a similar case in a local (Tucson) music store from years ago. While it is an accomplishment and and amazing amount of skill involved, it's basically useless and the heaviest case I ever lifted. In addition, if it was offered at a fair price, it would cost more than all but the most expensive instruments. It may have a home at the Musical Instruments Museum in Phoenix. They have a copy of Elvis' leather tooled guitar. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
