It should have been cheaper or better
Pros:
* Soft, plush interior
* Handle has a nice rubber feel to it
* Seems sturdy
* TSA approved lock
Cons:
* My biggest complaint. It does not fit my Pro Mod Dk24 perfectly. There is a 1-2cm gap between the bottom of my guitar and the bottom of the case, which leads to the guitar not being perfectly stable inside it. If you shake the case a bit (headstock to bridge motion) you can actually hear and feel the guitar moving inside it. I placed a cleaning cloth at the bottom of the case to fill that gap.
Photo: storage compartment could be a bit wider. My Ernie Ball string set can only (barely) fit if you place it diagonally inside the compartment and still gets in the way of the lid.
Photo: case's lid it doesn't sit perfectly on the base of the case so you have to apply extra pressure to it or pull it a bit towards you for it to fit and close the case.
* Bad (chemical) smell. Tried soda, coffee, left it open for a few days, the smell improved a bit but still smells funny.
Compared to the free case my Gibson came in when I had bought it, this case definitely lacks in quality and attention to detail. Since this is Charvel's most expensive case I expected more.

Great case, fair price, little room
I ordered this case for my Charvel So Cal. As expected it was a perfect fit.
It's an SKB, so I am not doubting the quality whatsoever. Shell, lining, padding, locks... all good!
However, I decided to return it, as the room to store additional items in the case is way too limited. The product pictures show only one small compartment, but I was hoping I would still be able to store all my necessary accessories somehow: trem bar, spare pack of strings, cleaning cloth, strap, small tools and plectrums. In vain. There was not enough room for all of these and especially my leather strap proved to be a problem. A regular nylon strap would probably work.
Bottomline. Great case. Fair price.
Charvel could have easily added another compartment in the case, but unfortunately they didn't.

Great case from Charvel
This is a must have carrying case to protect your favorite instrument from anything. Grabs the instrument securely inside its velvet like pudding. Light weight and at the same time durable. If you have a Charvel guitar this is the case that you should have.
