CALTON custom-fitted fiberglass instrument cases are rugged, well balanced
and attractive hard shelled cases with interiors tailored to each
instrument. Each half of every case is hand moulded in a single piece, using
pigmented resin, with no seams to separate and colour that is integral to
the fibreglass. All hardware is high quality plated steel, attached to the
case with steel rivets and reinforcing plates. Careful attention is paid to
the placement of the leather handle in order to provide the optimum in
comfort and balance.
A PVC strip completely edges both top and bottom halves of the case. This
strong, flexible strip, combined with the natural water repellent qualities
of fibreglass, provides an almost perfect seal against the elements. Case
interiors are hand crafted from high quality foam padding, using up to 15
measurements and a template of the instrument. All interior surfaces are
finished in crushed velour, and the pickbox is topped with a large foam pad
that cushions the neck. The neck is further protected with a padded guide
that restricts side-to-side movement.
No wonder Calton Cases was named Players' Choice Award-winner in 1998 and
Players' Choice Gold Award-winner in 2000, 2002 and 2004 by Acoustic Guitar
magazine.
