The SKB 1SKB-56 is a hardshell electric guitar case specifically designed for Les Paul and similar single-cutaway electric guitars, built with the same engineering rigor that SKB applies to their military and industrial cases to deliver genuine protection for valuable instruments. The case is constructed from SKB's proprietary molded polyethylene shell that is virtually indestructible under normal use conditions, with a valance system that creates an airtight, watertight seal when the case is closed. The interior features a cushioned EPS foam lining that is precisely contoured to cradle Les Paul body shapes securely, preventing movement and absorbing impacts from any direction. The TSA-approved trigger-release latches provide secure closure while allowing TSA inspectors to open the case during airline security screening without damaging the latches. The full-perimeter bumper guards protect the case edges from corner drops and impact damage. An internal accessories compartment holds picks, strings, tools, and small personal items. The case includes a comfortable carry handle and accepts an optional shoulder strap. SKB backs this case with their lifetime warranty, demonstrating genuine confidence in its durability. The 1SKB-56 is ideal for gigging and touring guitarists who need bulletproof protection for their Les Paul or similar instruments, especially those who check instruments as airline luggage. The precise Les Paul body contouring means guitars with non-standard dimensions may not fit securely, and the weight at approximately 11 pounds adds to the overall carry burden.
