Beautiful! 

They mention a custom Calton case.  I have one for my Series I guitar and although the cases are very protective, they are also very heavy, more of a travel/flight case.

I wonder if that case would fit a bass? I sort of need one...

Only if the bass had the exact same dimensions.   Calton cases are custom fit to a particular instrument.  I have one for my Further.  But nothing other than a Further would fit (or, I suppose, anything smaller would fit too, but not well).    They are great protective/travel cases.  And they are heavy.   I also have a Hoffee case that fits Strats well.  Also very protective and good for travel.  And the Carbon Fiber Hoffee is MUCH lighter than my fiberglass Calton.    My Calton was from the old company in Canada.  They shut down and sold the name a few years ago.  They are now based in Texas and I don’t know much about the current cases.

Bill, tgo

This is my guitar for sale. Mica and crew had it and my 12 string for a number of months in 2019. It's nearly flawless. We THOUGHT that one of the pickups was open, but my tech here found the problem (a tricky little bugaboo). Someone will LOVE this instrument and the case is brand new. Great condition old case included for extra shipping. Thanks for looking...and I'm KEEPING the 12 string! :-)

Does the 12 string have the knobby headstock?

Yes, I meant the old Series case, not the new one. I need one.

Just curious. Will the nut/bridge slots accommodate Rickenbacker stringing ?  I have a Rick V64-12 that I’m thinking of selling.
