No guitar accessory is more essential than the guitar case. Whether you’re a bassist, an acoustic guitar player, an electric guitar superstar, or all of the above, you need a solid case for your instrument.

Guitar cases turn you and your guitar into road warriors. Whether you’re traveling down the street for an evening performance or across the world for a tour, a guitar hard case or bass guitar case will keep your instrument safe.

A soft guitar case is nearly as protective, with the bonus of being ultra-lightweight. Soft guitar cases, with their comfortable handles and backpack-style straps, are ideal for carrying long distances—perfect if you walk, cycle, or transit to your gigs and rehearsals. Naturally, soft cases are also perfect for car rides, making them the ultimate travel guitar case for chronic road trippers and cross-country touring acts.

Even if you don’t plan on gigging or traveling with your instrument, a case helps keep it safe. Storing your guitar in a hardshell guitar case when it’s not in use—along with a humidifier, as needed—will ensure your acoustic, electric, or bass guitar remains in like-new condition. Not only will it be protected from bumps, scrapes, and the elements, but it’ll also exist in a controlled temperature and climate.

Finally, your guitar case is like a suitcase for your many essential accessories. No electric guitar case is complete without replacement guitar strings, some guitar accessories, and an extra pick (or twelve). In other words, guitar cases double as storage space.

At Gibson, our guitar cases don’t just protect your guitars from damage—they look great, too. Our iconic Lifton™ hardshell cases are as beautiful as they are rugged, and our premium, travel-ready soft cases are equally eye-catching. For even more protection, choose from our collection of Deluxe Protector cases, designed to keep your gear safe wherever you go.

Whether you’re looking for a hard acoustic guitar case or a softshell guitar travel case, Gibson has you—and your instrument—covered. Browse all cases to find the one for you.
