    Default Case for Loar LM-520?

    Howdy, yall!

    Inspired by the Louvin Brothers I just bought a (The) Loar LM-520 to get started on mandolin. The interior dimensions listed on the couple cases I've looked at online don't seem to match the instrument dimensions from the manufacturer's website. Will some of yall please recommend a case that will fit this particular mando?

    If you have any album recommendations for some good mandolin listening I would welcome those as well.

    Thanks,
    Alex

    Any case described as being for an F type mandolin should fit. If you live in the US there's a big choice, and several of the Cafe sponsors list them on their sites. If you're in Europe you'll have a tougher job (I ended up importing a case off US Amazon) but the Hiscox case gets lots of recommends around here.

    Thanks, Houseworker. I was unsure because the TKL case is listed with interior dimension 10.5", and the mando with lower bout 10", if that half inch would cause it to rattle around too much. I'll go ahead and get one.
