Please Note: Calton Cases feature interior support foam and velvet lining secured with adhesives, some of which need time to off-gas. During production, each case undergoes two 24-hour adhesive drying stages to reduce odor, but commonly this process needs more time. If you notice any residual glue or solvent odor, Calton Cases and CME suggest keeping the case empty and open in a well-ventilated area for a few days to a week until the odor dissipates.

From Calton:
We believe in the vision Keith Calton started in his backyard workshop just outside of London in 1973 - handcrafting well-made, darn near indestructible cases for touring musicians.
Calton Cases are undeniably as rugged as the road, yet as fine-tuned as your beloved stringed instrument. Our journey to here has been winding, not unlike your own, which is why our dedicated team of Austin-based craftspeople takes pride in building our custom guitar, mandolin, banjo and bass cases (soon!)… so you don't have to worry about your gear.
Why does my Calton Case smell bad at first? Is that normal?
