Looks sturdy, but a couple of watch outs
OK so firstly this was my first thomann purchase and I've been really impressed. This case showed as in stock, so I ordered it around 4PM Thursday. Here we are on Monday and it's been delivered!! Awesome!
Anyway, case was really well packed, opened her up and it looks awesome. Really pleased I stuck with a branded case for my baby. The moulded body area will hold an rr shape, king V or demmelition style V. The storage section is decent enough, and the case looks really sturdy - in particular the clasps looks like they'll withstand heavy gigging. Overall, Im happy with it.
However, couple of minor reservations...
The top hinge hasn't been installed straight - not sure if this will turn into a problem but it doesn't look like it's been screwed in the right place on one side - might just be this one but worth a mention.
The case isn't evenly balanced - its heavier at the headstock end than the body which means you have to be careful when carrying it. Again, not a major issue but I'll be peeved if I knock it on a kerb or steps when I'm carrying it.

Could be better
I use it for my Jackson KV7 BKS Corey Beaulieu
Pros:
- Fits the guitar (marginally).
- Very good construction. Looks very "resistant" / "durable".
- Can stand both horizontally and vertically.
Cons:
- Small inner compartment for your extra equipment
- You will have to remove the strap from the guitar in order to better fit it in the case.
- The handle position is wrong. It is not in a good position in order to balance the case and guitar.
- It is a bit bulky. The case is big. It will not fit on my car's boot and believe me the boot is BIG. I have to fold the rear seats.
Overall
It is a good case that makes you feel confident about the security of the guitar, but it could be better.

Good but
When I was going to purchase this case I checked the reviews and saw the Jackson KV7 BKS Corey Beaulieu should fit inside of it from what another user said. I also asked on thomann chat to someone and he also confirmed that it should fit.
When it arrived the guitar did not fit, and thomann is not able to make me a custom inlay for the guitar to fit correctly, so i had to modify it myself...
Overall the case is VERY nice! very durable and nice to look at.
If you're planning on getting this case, just make sure you're getting a normal king v or rhoades because otherwise you risk for it not to fit.
(kv7 bks should be considered an american line model btw...)

The guitar case quite often dives foward due to heavy front part which makes it difficult to carry sometime. Overall build quality is excellent
