A mi hijo le encantó !Gracias ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Achei o acabamento do case muito bem feito. *by on Reviewed in Brazil 9 January 2020* Embora seja um pouco pesado (aproximadamente 4 kgs), não diminui a informação importante: protege seu instrumento da forma correta e acompanha cadeado com chave por segurança extra.Downside: qualquer chave que for do mesmo case vai abrir esse cadeado (tenho 2 parecidos). ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sehr gut *by on Reviewed in Germany 6 June 2020* Der Koffer scheint wie für meine Ashton 12-String gemacht. Sehr sauberer Sitz. Sehr stabil. Vier Klappverschlüsse.Der Koffer ist relativ flach. Innenhöhe: 11,5 cm (Case) + 3 cm (Deckel). ("relativ" bedeutet dabei: Ein anderer Koffer, den ich für eine andere 12-String nutze, hat 13 cm + 2,5 cm.) Dabei ist auch zu beachten, dass im Bereich des Gitarrenbodys eine Handbreit vor dem Hals noch eine zusätzliche ca. 1 cm starke Polsterung die Höhe nochmals verringer; für meine Ashton ideal, da der Gitarrenbody zum Hals hin etwas an Höhe verliert, aber für meine andere 12-String, die eine durchgehend gleichbleibende, auch insgesamt größere Höhe hat, nicht so ganz ideal.Durch die schmale Halsform des Koffers fällt das Innenfach in dem Bereich ebenfalls schmal aus, so dass ein Saitensatz in den marktüblichen Verpackungen nicht flach hineingelegt werden kann, sondern nur schräg/verkantet. Man verschenkt also Platz. (Bei meinem anderen Koffer, der nicht die optisch schöne, aber unpraktische Halsverjüngung zwischen Kopf und Body hat, ist das nicht so; da liegen alle Saitensätze flach.)Die Verklebung des Außenmaterials ist an den Kanten nicht so ganz 100%-ig.Innenlänge gemessen: 111 cm. Innenbreite 42 / 32 cm.Wie gesagt: Für mich bzw. meine Ashton ist der Koffer von der Passform ideal. Wegen des schmalen Innenfachs (schmale Halsform) und der Verklebung würde ich einen halben Stern abziehen, wenn das ginge. So aber bleibt es bei wohlwollenden 5 Sternen. ## Frequently Bought Together - Gator Cases Traditonal Series Hard-Shell Wood Case for 6 or 12-String Dreadnought Style Acoustic Guitars, (GWE-DREAD 12) - Ernie Ball Polypro Guitar Strap, Black (P04037) - Gator Cases Traditonal Series Hard-Shell Wood Case for Standard Electric Guitars, Fits Strat/Tele, & More (GWE-ELECTRIC) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/93503735-gwe-dread-12-hard-shell-wood-case-for-dread-12](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/93503735-gwe-dread-12-hard-shell-wood-case-for-dread-12) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-09-01*
