15. Road Runner
Polyfoam Guitar Case
The Polyfoam series of guitar cases by Road Runner are an
ideal hybrid of hardshell protection and gigbag weight.
Featuring a rigid, plush-lined thermal-form interior that’s
surrounded by a cortex cover, you get superior protection
without added heft.
You can find Road Runner cases as several online retailers—
and at only $80, they really are a value. You can get a
polyfoam case for electric, acoustic and bass guitars and
each one comes with sturdy zippers, a heavy-duty rubber
handle with a contoured grip and a generous amount of
storage for books, straps, picks and other accessories.
