Broken 360 Case

Post by RicRox »

Hi guys...it's the craziest thing....after 8 years...I woke up this morning to find my 360 case ajar on the left latch while the 2 others (centre and right) were locked.

On closer inspection I find that the section the latch clamps to (on the top half of the case) has come off the "little rivets".
Any suggestions on how to repair this?

This case has never been transported to gigs or been treated in a rough manner. It is used in a home studio and I'm the type of guy that would buy a case to protect the case if I could. Very, very Strange.

Not a fan of the brittle skb made or style cases. All of mine have cracked with minimal use.

i like skb cases but use long $4 belt through the handle and around it anyway. they are good cases to travel with - it doesn't look all that special too. ....and back to the point - i think local luggage store can fix it for you for cheap. it needs new rivets and some reinforcement there.
