The Raku durable Archtop Hard Case is designed to be more ergonomic than the older version. The Archtop Lid is more structurally sound, preventing contact to the top of the instrument when impacted. The cushioned handle will help you carry your instrument and case comfortably and the plush interior will hold your instrument firmly in place without scratching or damaging it. The savvy hardware gives the Raku Archtop Hard Cases a vintage & Classy look.
