Need Cheap Hardshell case for 3/4 standup.

I need to ship it from Owensboro, KY, and I live in L.A. I figure the safest was to package it for delivery, is to put it in a hard shell. Time is of the essence, so any help is would be greatly appreciated.

You may be able to rent one, ship it to KY, and when the bass arrives in CA, return the case to the owner in LA.

Quick, click here: http://www.jimlaabsmusic.com/index.p...&Submit=%C2%A0

That's Jim Laabs Stores, Wisconsin, etc., that have a cheap, new, cheap hard case for only $675 -- plus overland freight, of course. I'm dying to know if they are any good and if I can dig out the bottom part to fit my very big Prescott. I'll try to post a picture but this is not easy with this site. They only had white in color when I last checked. I'd prefer black which is harder to see through tinted van windows.
