Thomann E-Guitar Case Tweed
I use this for my guitars and I play 90% of the time at home. I got this one because of the price when I ordered a new guitar.
Pros: Price Price Price. I cannot say enough about the quality of this case for the price. Four front buckles, two of which are locking. Four brass stand knobs on the bottom and the end of the case. the tweed is very nice and you can tell right away it is a well manufactured fabric.
Cons: I love this case but want to be fair. There are four very small holes in the tweed, they are in a line and look to have been made by a machine. This probably happened in the feeder for the fabric as it was attached to the case. The compartment inside the case was detached from the sides. There was no issues with the inside fabric and the compartment was not damaged, the nails were showing about an inch so a little hammering and it was fixed. The padding inside if the guitar cavity is minimal but for the price it is still very very nice. Even though I had an issue I will be purchasing this exact case again for my other Harley Benton.
Overall Excellent case for the money, you really cannot beat it and really it is a guitar case and it is there to protect and take any damage. Great jog Thomann!!

Good basic protection
Needed a few cases for some of my electrics as I will be transporting them a few times over the next couple of weeks. Most of the time they are kept in a rack in my studio so I just needed something functional and cheap.
This isn't a hugely high quality product but for what it is and particularly for its price it is more than ok for the job.
I would have preferred if the lining was a bit plusher and the foam of a higher quality but for the price I'm happy enough.
If I was buying just one case I would probably have gone for a higher price/quality item but as I needed to buy multiple cases for just occasional use and I don't fancy having to lay out too much money I am very happy that these are available.
My Tele fits snugly and the Tweed actually looks and feels great which I wasn't expecting!

Comparison review against 2 other Thomann Cases
I bought 3 different cases for my Stratocasters, in order to determine which was best to buy further purchases. This is in order to store my very large collection of Strats which do not have cases. This might be useful for those making a choice between these products.
The products I purchased were: Thomann E-Guitar Case Tweed (€58), Thomann E-Guitar Case ABS (€55), and Thomann E-Guitar Case BK Wood (€48).
Here I am reviewing the Thomann E-Guitar Case Tweed (€58). Please read my other reviews for the other products for comparison.
First of all, they are all fantastic value for money. Nothing else even comes close, so well done to Thomann.
The quality of the tweed case was very high. The case interior features a compartment and hinged lid which is much better and more useful than the ABS case which has no lid. The interior is plush red velvet, which looked ok, but wasn't to my taste - it isn't anywhere as nice as the darker wine red crushed velvet of the Fender equivalent that it is trying to emulate. This was the most expensive of the 3 cases I bought, but I didn't like it as much as the Thomann E-Guitar Case BK Wood which is €10 cheaper.
That said, if you want a tweed case, and you don't want to pay double for it, this is for you. You really can't go wrong at this price point.

Quality and fits for purpose
The case itself looks great and gives you the vintage atmosphere with its tweed cover and red velvet inside.
A thinline telecaster fits well in the case, as well as my Boss GT-1 into the pocket. There are even more spaces around the guitar if you want to add some analog pedals as per your preference.
I suggest it to people who goes to gigs by their own cars. It is a bit heavy to carry in the bus or metro, but it gets everyone's attention :)

Fancy looks
This case is very well built and assembled, although it is not by Fender. Thomann makes some very good products that allow you to save a few bucks, while having a well made product...which always helps!

The smell is strong and not the most pleasant, but totally the quality is good, especially for this price. Recommend!

Great value, cute, but HEAVY
I buy a hard case to protect my instrument so I like to wait a while before I review it. I bought this a couple of years ago and it's seen heavy use.
I've used it for my Cort superstrat and my Ibanez 7 string, and it fits and protects both very well; the guitars move very little inside it, and the fit isn't *too* snug even for the Ibanez, although it really needs about 8mm more height inside the case.
The case has taken some pretty serious knocks and drops and survived all of them so far. MUCH better build quality than I was expecting at the price.
The fabric exterior is fraying fast now, but so far this adds character and is purely cosmetic.
My only complaint with this case is that it is FAR too heavy. Wooden cases are heavy but I've used much lighter ones than this.

Thomann E-Guitar Case Tweed
A nice looking case but at one gig it rained heavily and I was parked a long way from the venue. Obviously the case got wet and when it dried out there were bulges on the case in several places.
A nice looking case ( but on the cheap side, I would not buy this again )

Nice basic case, quite good quality at affordable price
This is a nicely built guitar case. Rally no problems quality-wise. Combined with the affordable price, it is a highly recommended buy.
The only thing you should bear in mind is that if you want to use it with a Strat or Tele, the guitar is likely to wobble a little inside the case. But if you put some pice of soft material on top of the guitar (e.g. a towel bent twofold), the problem is resolved.
