Jim,

I'd just like to add a question. Does the case only come with the 2 straps or can they come with a single strap? Thanks.

Straps

Jim,

Rob

I can make them with one strap if you wish. The straps clip off easily though.

Thanks,
Jim

Some quick answers

Jim ... I have some additional questions:

1) What is the top cap lined with on inside, is it leather
or foam? Have another case with foam on inside that
broke down and tore and is coming out.

2) What are the pockets lined with on inside?
How heavy is the material?

3) Have any 'pros' bought one of your Vintage line?

I would also like to see a picture of the inside if possible.

Thanks

1) What is the top cap lined with on inside, is it leather
or foam? Both. Very good leather and foam that can be changed if there is a problem.2) What are the pockets lined with on inside?
How heavy is the material? It is actually 500 denure Cordura Nylon. It is very strong and flexible. It will outlast the leather. We use it in our Police training suits.

3) Have any 'pros' bought one of your Vintage line? No. Some A's have. Mostly because I designed the Vintage line after I made most of the pro cases. Jennifer Barretta's pocket on her case was the forerunner to the Vintage pocket.

I would also like to see a picture of the inside if possible.Do you mean of the tubes? Thanks[/QUOTE]

Yes, I mean the tubes. In examining other cases, I have noticed that some
case makers configurations inside were too spread out, which ended up with the exterior's dimensions being too big, which resulted in a case being too bulky or big. I have a friend that had a hand tooled leather case made with 3 or 4 colors (dragons, etc.), a 3 x 6, paid $1300 for it, but complains all the time about how big and bulky it is, and upon further examination, the inside
space was not utilized in an optimum manner which resulted in the outside
being too large. Plus I have a 4 x 8 I don't use anymore because I don't like
lugging it around.

Your Vintage line does not have that 'bulky' appearance though like some
other cases, but I still would like a shot of the inside tubes if you could.
And I would like to know the arrangement of tubes for a 3 x 6.

Thanks Jim ... (I do plan to get one, but have to save for it first)

I took a few bad pictures. If I can figure out how to get them on here I will put them on. They aren't very good but you can see the configuration. The tubes are as tight together as I can get them. I try not to waste any space. They look a bit thicker in the photo than they really are.

Thanks,
Jim

Still waiting ...

on a review of the case(s) after having used them
in actual play, storage, handling, ease of use, etc.
