Frequently asked questions

Can I use the CPHX2FFLH for a right-handed guitar?

No. The CPHX2FFLH is explicitly configured for left-handed instruments with an interior oriented for LH body shapes. A right-handed guitar will not fit properly.

Will the CST1XLFF fit guitars other than the ST-1 XL?

Yes, the CST1XLFF is designed to accommodate other baritone and extended-scale instruments of similar dimensions to the ST-1 XL, offering greater versatility than a single-model case.

What is the key construction difference between these two cases?

The CPHX2FFLH uses a wooden shell with soft-lined molded interior, while the CST1XLFF features multi-ply wood construction with a plush interior lining designed to reduce vibration. Both use Tolex exterior and molded form-fit interiors.

Which case is better for gigging and touring?

Both are budget-tier hardshell cases designed for protection during transport and performance. The CST1XLFF's comfort grip handle is noted for extended carrying comfort, while the CPHX2FFLH offers a standard molded handle—the choice depends on your specific guitar model and personal carrying preference.
