Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!
I watched an unboxing video on Youtube and they talked about these new guitars having a different case with five latches. Have they changed the brown case for the 2019’s?
Yes. I know the new ones are possibly more historically correct, but, personally, I preferred the ones they were using before 2019. However, I know that some people got excited about the lifton cases. I just find the placement of the bottom latch, the one point neck support and the overall protection inferior to previous years cases.
Edit: I'm currently using a Gibson USA case of one of the guitars I sold to help me pay for my 2019 R9. The vintage correct lifton case that came with my R9 is just stored in a closet collecting dust.
