The best tubs for metal.

However, can’t Gibson with its hundreds of years of guitar making experience figure out how to keep a Tbird from flopping around??

Expertise in guitars, not cases...

I dare you to post this out in GP 2ith a complex set of calculations that determine the volume of the plastic tubs. Then let everyone argue over:
The correct calculations for volume,
The correct amount of dampening material (papers from the looks of it) to have in the tubs,
The corrections for the density of the plastic, and
The best tubs for metal.

No sir, i will not.
I suppose the GP will not ignore, no towels.

Been meaning to do this. Get the cab up off the floor. Remove as much cab to floor coupling as possible. Certainly not pretty, but hey, use what ya got, right? Huge difference in tone and controlled low end.

When you get a chance, take a look at MudStand.com. I got the Mini for my R40 and it Could be used for the R200C(on its side). They have a bigger one that holds more weight. 'Course then ya gotta spend $.

90#'s plus worth? My homemade deal is just fine.

Not a VP, an Epiphone Classic pro with Chinabuckers. Joe Bardens in the Ric.

The original case for my 67 NR has a leather strap maybe 3/4" wide that goes over the neck and keeps it from moving. Screwed to the neck cradle on one end, hole near other end of strap slips over another screw. Worked fine but the case is busted out at head stock end.

Not knocking it, just a little inconvenient to take on a gig.

Towel, easy. Clean towel, difficult...

The other night I jammed with a guy that had just built a washtub bass. He had come up with a different design and said the guys on a washtub bass forum said it was a game changer.
Just goes to show there’s a forum for everything

I’m a bit afraid to tackle it on my own. I’d rather pay someone to do it right than make a mess of it myself. I’d like to know who sent it back, and see if it came that way out of the box and why they decided to send it back as opposed to getting a partial refund and having it repaired.

NBD HELP! Damage! Cracks! Return or Keep? Gibson Thunderbird Content!
