I recently purchased an explorer case for £40 but there's just too much room for movement when in the back of our van so looks like I'll have to use the Les Paul for our up and coming tour.
Can anyone help or advise on a more cost effective option as I'd love to take the esprit. I've used it in the studio and at 2 local gigs and it sounded and played awesome and I got loads of comments on it's cool looks, I also used it on our debut single & video shoot, it's just so irritating that you can buy high quality protective cases for your Les paul & Strat for around £50 but these babys will cost you a lung and a kidney.

Dazmondo, Hi!....Dennis Drumm, M. D. at Fret-King here. The unique shape of the Esprit, unfortunately means that none of the usual case brands offer a suitable case.
For this reason, we have elected to offer a fully fitted case, made for Fret-King by Hiscox, (
http://www.hiscoxcases.com), in the UK.
The catalogue number for the case is FKC300, with a list price of £149:00
Drop me a mail at
sarahh@jhs.co.uk and I'll hook you up with a reseller who'll cut you a bit of a deal.
You mention a video for your debut single.....d'you want to let us have the links, and we'll add it to the site.
Hope the above is a bit of a help, sometimes there's no compromise.
Regards, and thanks for choosing to buy a Fret-King Esprit.
Dennis
