Case recommendation for 59 LP Jr DC

[steveokla]

Just landed a DC 59 after nearly a year long quest. It has the original chip board alligator case, but the handle’s missing thought about trying to find a handle (though not sure where), but likely not a good idea to tote the Jr around in it anyway.

I’d like to find something “appropriate “ looking if I can, and I’m not sure if any LP Jr case will work or whether there’s something specific to the DC. Would appreciate recommendations. Wouldn’t mind finding a replacement handle, either while I’m about it. Thanks, Steveokla

I got a TDK which fits mine exactly.

You have to be a little careful on them but they do make one that is exactly right.

You mean TLK? Is there a particular model number? Thanks

I've used TKL LP Jr

 

[steveokla]

Got it. Are they specific to SC and FC or just one model for both!

 

[renderit]

TKL, sorry.

I think it fits both as I got one for my 59 then bought the same thing for my 58 Special.

 

[steveokla]

Perfect. Is there a model number or some such, or just go to their site and look for Jr cases?

By the by, I note some outfit on Reverb selling cases made by n Canada at a discount-wonder if they’re TKL’s?
