Title: Anyone recognize this case manufacturer?
Post by: rjbassman on December 31, 2008, 01:13:38 PM
Appologies for the pic...manual-focus: doesn't and auto-focus: won't!
The logo is a circle with an italicized (and serif'd) letters P and F nested inside.

On the whole, it's a nice case, but I wonder who made it? It ALMOST fits my new 97 Rogue.

That looks to me to be a Modulus case. I don't know who makes their cases, but I've been told that they are easy enough to deal with, so give them a call.

Modulus case it is! If it fits your Rogue it was probably for a Quantum bass. Nice and light but it will crap out on you soon.

Thanks Pete, your ID was spot-on!

Now that I know what that logo means I might throw a sticker over it for stealth. I keep my fretless PJ in a yucky Ibanez case to avoid unwanted attention.
Thanks again!

In order to take super-close pictures, you need to change to the macro setting - it's often symbolized by a tulip. I found an article here (http://www.pcworld.com/article/104154/article.html target=_blank).

Adam is right,the Modulus cases don't hold up well or last very long. I had two of them break down before I got a Gator flight case for my Q5. I don't remember what model the case is, but I could look and let you know if you are interested. The case is great for the Q5, but is just a little small for my Series II.
