Here are some pics of the brand new Rusty Melton case I picked up. A HUGE 'thank you' to Rusty...and another HUGE 'thank you' to guycrunch for making it happen. Big props also go to OrionTheHunter for making first contact to get the wheels spinning on it.
All three gentlemen are top notch...and the case is fantastic!!!!!
Another great looking Melton case, I also have one in my collection, and more on order. I think these cases are a very good Value for their price, and the Craftsmanship is certainly as good as any currently out there in my Opinion. Unlike many other makers currently building cases, a Melton Case is just that built by Rusty himself, while some buyers could care less, others know that is how legends are made and how some ones work becomes collectible.
Congratulations on your case and great job Rusty!!!!
Mr. Melton does fantastic work sir. You are aware I am certain that there are many things that are collectible that are a result of collaborations,
Hummel figurines, cars, furniture, antique cue sticks, antique cue cases such as Fellini, Kelly, and Jay Flowers, these are but a few of the collectible items that were made in shops by more than one person.
Personally, I purchase the items I use based on their current use to me and not because they may someday be collectible. A Melton case is certainly one that I would consider based on the craftsmanship I see from the pictures.
