Hi OFC dudes,

The OHSC of my 1978 Viper II is falling appart. A full roll of gaffer tape couldn't achieve a repair.
Has anyone a case in good condition for sale? I stay in Belgium, Europe. Thanks for proposals!
All the best,

I have run into the same issue for one of my vipers and , as you are ,always on the lookout for one......

The standard tele/strat cases are too short...by +/- a inch (2.54 cm)
My inelegant interim solution is cramming it into a gator foam case by compressing the interior top and bottom foam.

Alternately:
Finding the Michael Kelly case fits pretty good for longer neck solid bodies.

Well made case But the logo is on the case.

Would love to hear any alternatives the other members have as I fear no one is going to
give one up..... but I will keep trying.

Same boat here. I got a nice one with my Viper, but my UK2 came in a rectangular tweed case that's just a bit too short. I've looked off and on for a Viper/UK2 case, but no success. Since I rarely take both anywhere, and I have a soft case, it's not a big priority.
