That's a great (and funny) question. I guess you could get a hard case and throw a hand full of rocks in with the guitar...That way you can protect the instrument and add random relicing...wait I think I will patend the RELICING CASE!!! :lol:

1. Steel wool to replace plush lining.
2. belt bucket stiched into bottom of case.
3. Rolling Relicing Rocks to add random dings!

Hardshell cases for all guitars. No other devices are acceptable.

Without a doubt a hardcase as a gig bag is no protection for impact. But this is the second post up that everyone is case happy.Two months ago Iput up a post calling Fender cheap for not giving out cases for guitars that cost a grand and a lot of people were happy with just a gig bag now everyone wants a case .Well I am going to have to dig up that post and weed out the hypocrites.

Let's try and be a little bit serious here, shall we?

There is only one appropriate way to get a RoadWorn Strat to the gig:

I voted yes--basically--but then I think every guitar needs a hardshell case.
