Frequently asked questions

Which case fits my extended-scale or baritone guitar?

The ESP CST1/XL is engineered specifically for extended-scale and baritone instruments like the LTD SN-1007HT Baritone. The V-Alexi-V is designed only for V-Series guitars and will not accommodate baritones or extended instruments.

Are these cases left-handed?

The V-Alexi-V is explicitly designed for left-handed guitars with left-handed orientation. The CST1/XL form fit case is described for extended-scale guitars but its left-hand compatibility should be confirmed with the model designation.

What is the key difference in internal design?

The CST1/XL prioritizes extra length to prevent shifting in oversized generic cases. The V-Alexi-V uses molded form-fit construction tailored to V-body contours, eliminating excess internal space specific to that guitar shape.

Which case is better for touring?

Both are budget-tier hard shell cases suitable for touring. The CST1/XL emphasizes durability for extended-scale guitars during travel, while the V-Alexi-V focuses on protective fit for left-handed V-Series models.
