Custom Musical Instrument Cases |

Measuring For Your Case: |
| For an instrument without a case: |
| 1.) Lay your instrument down and trace the outline. Stand it up and trace the base (if it has a base.)
2.) Measure the depth of the instrument in as many places as needed (ends, bridge, pegs, etc.) Write the measurments along the outline. 3.) Mark any potential rub spots where strings, pegs and bridges may wear the lining. 4.) Pick up your instrument and find where it is most easily carried, the balance point. Mark that on the tracing. 5.) Put your name, UPS address, phone number and any other details on the tracing. |
| For an instrument with a case: |
| 1.) Lay the case on a piece of paper and trace the outline. Mark the handle and hinges.
2.) Measure the depth(s) and write them on the outline. 3.) Put your name, UPS address, phone number and any other details on the tracing. |
| About Hammered Dulcimer Cases: |
|
With hammered dulcimer cases there is a choice, a trough or no trough. The trough is a place a short scissor stand or the tristander legs can be stored. This protects the instrument while decreasing things to carry. Another popular option is to put velcro straps along the long side of the case to secure a stand under the handle. |
| About Harp Cases: |
| I have never met two harps of different makers that are the same. Each of my cases are custom built for you and your harp’s needs. Most important is the placement of the handles. If you are sending a tracing please do not forget to mark this balance point along the pillar. If you have a preference as to the orientation of the pocket please note that as well. Sometimes it is impossible to put a grab handle on the side of the case when the pocket is one way or the other, depending on this very important balance point. |
