Heirloom, museum quality craftsmanship piece! A tip of the hat to Denny for sharing his process...I followed along on FB as it developed...most intriguing!

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.

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.

WOWWWWWWWWWWWWW. That is GREAT WORK. I only wished I had the patience to do that. I know a few pickers that might be interested if you are wanting to sell it.
