A Guitar’s Hardest Journey Begins The Day It Leaves Your Shop:

Through post offices, packaging, unpacking, shelving and selling, your guitar will endure some of the most aggressive handling in its lifetime. Ensure yours is as pristine as the day it left your shop by insisting your guitar is sold exclusively inside a Calton Case. We customize every case with the care and dedication that you spend on your work, which is why we’ve been a leading custom guitar case company since we opened in 1969.

Our durable, reinforced fiberglass shell is fortified for everything that comes its way. Meanwhile our heavy-duty latches, rubber bumpers, and tongue and groove trim ensure your instrument is safe and secure for all degrees of stress.

Custom For Life

For every instrument, we create a detailed template so that our cases are carefully molded to your product. This template is then saved on file for life so that any time you need another, we can create and ship fast and efficiently without new measurements and photos.

Temperature Regulation

When exposed to rapid temperature change, case maintains a gradual increase or decrease in internal temperature for up to 90 min.

Calton cases have durable latches
Unmatched Latches
