Does the lid being closed on the case affect the Bigbsy vibrato, as like put stress on the strings when closed , or is their plenty of room for bigbsy

I just push the bigsby handle down and around a bit on the guitar body so it is in a somewhat upside-down position and the lid closes just fine. Does not affect the bigsby or guitar in any way.

It fits fine, just turn the bigsby bar to where it faces up perpendicular to the strings before you close it.

There's plenty of room for the Bigsby. I was concerned about the same thing, but I just make sure that I spin the vibrato bar down so it's pointing towards the bottom of the guitar and it fits with plenty of room to spare.

If you twist the bigsby arm all the way to the back, so that it's behind the bridge , it fits no problem.

This case is a snug fit for my electromatic. I think you'll have comparability issues with the bigsby

If the vibrato bar is turned facing down towards tail piece it fits perfectly! Ideally pointing to 5 o'clock!

If u turn the bigspy vibrato arm 180 degrees from the playing position it will not affect the lid closing on the guitar.

I think the case is fancy inside and out, and it smells just as "bad" as a new car, or a new blow-up bed - it's just new. The outside looks great. It's definitely not a case for throwing around. there are a lot of buckles on the outside, but that's because the case is so big. Guitar is snug inside.

Hi! I was wondering about that too, however, once I put the case on, there is not interruption of the sound quality once the case it on. I don't know how they do it, but it works!

I bought mine for use with my ukulele, and it definitely holds down the strings well, though I have not had the chance to use it for extended playing yet. It is a bit big, of course.

There's a magnet that hold the case closed. I've never dropped mine, but it feels relatively secure.

Yes. I use mine for mics and harmonicas, and have had no problems with the lid staying open while I'm setting up and tearing down.

I am about to find out this coming week since I will be checking it in along with my suitcase. However, to protect my mini guitar further, I am lining the inside of the gig bag with bubble wrap. Since the mini body is made of laminate it is supposed to be able to handle a lot of abuse.

The tuners do not reach the bottom of the case, as the neck is well-supported before it hits the headstock. I'm not sure about how well a Bigsby equipped LP would fit in there; it is a pretty snug fit to the bottom of the LP body. I don't own a guitar fitted with a Bigsby, so can't even really estimate by adding a bit to the thickness of the existing bridge to estimate the fit.

That's how mine works too, sorry. Kinda dumb for a case at this price. In fairness, the Apple case had the same issue. However, during use, this wasn't a deal breaker with either. Throw it in a bag, it stays shut. That's all I need.

Don't have that problem with the case. Had read about that problem in reviews before I purchased it, but thankfully it is not an issue, otherwise I would have returned the case. Very happy with case, can you adjust volume settings?

I'm pretty sure the microphone is on the bottom of the phone. So the case shouldn't effect that while closed.

Lou: Yes it is large enough. Plus on the support where the neck of the violin rests on the case there is the velcro loop that is designed just for the bridge. A cool feature that preserves space in the accessory box. It is the best case that I have had... really solid straps, metal pieces...fellow fiddlers have been impressed and have inquired about it. It a good one. Dr. Dan

The music box will only play when you wind it up. If it is wound up, it will play with the lid open and stop when the lid is closed.

The volume control is on the outside when the phone is closed but the speakers are only inside. kind of a problem since if closed, it will play but not real clearly. much better than if closed.

No you can not talk with the flap closed. I am also noticing that the magnet area is starting to wear out and feel it will soon tear. Today also I tried to remove my phone from the case because I noticed that the sound was not working properly after I removed it the sound improved. Once my favorite case is soon becoming something I would not recommend.

It does close tightly with two latches. We have had the case tumble off of furniture and tip over numerous times. It is transported in luggage to sleepovers and never has the bands gotten mixed up when it is closed.

Hi, I'm afraid I cannot help as I'm a beginner and I don't know a lot about cases. However, I would suggest you do what I did and go to the Ibanez website and use the customer service to get your answer. I contacted them just to be on the safe side before I purchased the case and someone responded to my question very quickly.I think this is the safest thing to do so you actually get the correct answer from the people who know.Derek
