Ibanez HSC problems

[jemsmyuniverse]

Did anyone of you experience a problem in which inner molding of HSC is pushed back so much in shipping that guitar no longer fits snugly in the case? I've had several Ibanez guitars shipped to me with original HSC and thet all have the same condition which only varies to a degree

I had a similar problem about a year ago. The case in which guitar came was almost flawless not to mention the guitar itself. Thanks Rich. However, inside the case there was a bit of problem with molding. At first, I though it was supposed to be "roomy" but now I know it wasn't. The guitar actually moves back and forth in the case. Now year later thereis nothing I can do about this. I guess depending on how the package is handled, the inner molding of the case can be damaged.

You talking about horn puncture? That's common. I pack every guitar wrapped in a thick piece of styro bag before I case it and it still happens, rarely, but still happens [note philzeta's message above]

Hey! I just recently bought a 7vwh and I also experienced problems with the case. The guitar would bump around in it whilst carrying it around and my picks wouldn't stay in their place. They were all over the place. I had to put everything I had in the case in small plastic bags so it would scratch the guitar. But then I went to my local pusher and told him that I wasn't satisfied with the case and got a new one... Guess what - no problems now... How come this happens to a case and how do I avoid it with the new case?
