I could just ask my local store but since I do not have a local store I will ask here. Can anyone tell me if there is a solid hard case available for my 5 string open back Goodtime banjo? I would like one made by the Goodtime company if they make them. Has anyone any idea how much they might cost, where to buy one from and even a brief idea how they look?

	beetlegeist says: 3/15/2011 11:46:48 PM That would be an awful lot of money. If that is the case I would have to settle for any just as long as it held my banjo safe - especially in the hold of a plane.

	courgettelawn says: 6/12/2011 5:35:21 AM Hi Dave, Did you succeed in finding a decent hard case that wasn't as has been said almost as dear as the banjo? I am looking for a hard case at the moment, and would prefer a slmmer one for open backs. I have found that Ozark does one and Hobgoblin music (UK based): Osark: eaglemusicshop.com/details1.as...-Case.htm Hobgoblin Ashbury open back case: hobgoblin.com/local/GR3772_p_A...-page.htm Anyone else based in the UK who's found a slimmer than normal hard case for their Goodtime?
	davehead says: 6/12/2011 7:23:10 AM I would like a hard case but all I have so far is the gig bag that came with the banjo. I don't travel much and if I do it is by vehicle.
	pddngtn says: 12/12/2011 7:42:08 AM I ordered mine when I ordered the Banjo from Guitar ctr, "Musicians Gear Deluxe Hardshell Banjo Case Regular" . They threw it in with the banjo. Not fine but nicely built and sturdy, I did make a pillow for under the rim and one to add better neck support. Very happy with it.
