I purchased a custom case for my Ricky Panda from Hugh Briley and couldn't be happier! Beautiful craftsmanship and attention to detail which is so rare these days!
I highly recommend Hugh is you need a custom case!!!

Nice couple ouds you got there. I own one but have not played it in at least a year. They are a bitch to tune! I also own a B6 of the sme vintage. Such a great sounding and playing instrument!

Not only a great guy and a great craftsman, but Hugh and his wife Barbara are faithful supporters of our Carolina music scene. He walks the walk.

Those are great cases guys. I may look into one for my Cole Clark, the B6 case should be perfect.
