Am I the only one who thinks the new American Standard hardshell cases are seriously badass?

Do you think they will be available to purchase individually?

They are pretty nice. I just order the new strat and can't wait until it gets here. Not sure if they sell the cases separately but the people who made the case(SKB) do sell similar cases with the same type of latches , but its not as nice as the American Standard ones.

I like 'em almost as good as the G&G cases.

The only thing I don't like about them is there is no place to put small items ( Picks, tremelo arm ) but this is off set by there being plenty of room for a strap or small guitar cord. And, I carry my "extras" in a small briefcase anyway. I love the latches !

Thanks for the directions to find the case.

I suppose the inside looks like SKB-66 case:

Hard cases are pretty much a necessity anyway, so this was a good move.

The new cases do look pretty cool, but I still prefer the vintage style G&C made cases. They just scream Fender guitars.
