Frequently asked questions

Will either case fit my Schecter guitar?

No—these cases are body-shape specific. The 4490 fits only the Odin Barbarian, and the 4491 fits only the Viking War Hammer. Verify your guitar's body contours match before ordering.

What is the main construction difference between them?

The 4490 uses a plywood shell, while the 4491 uses hardwood. Hardwood offers slightly more rigidity and impact resistance, though both provide professional-grade protection for gigging and touring.

Does the 4491 have any extra features?

Yes—the 4491 includes an integrated accessory storage compartment, while the 4490 does not mention this feature. Both include monkey fur lining, locking latches, and carry handles.

Are both cases suitable for frequent touring?

Yes—both are hand-crafted USA-made hardshell cases by G&G with chrome-plated locking latches, monkey fur padding, and durable vinyl tolex exteriors designed for regular transport and storage.
