The Hiscox Cases Ltd factory was founded in 1985 by Brynn Hiscox, a professional guitar builder. Brynn's customers asked for a case with optimal protection. He used his professional know-how and his technical experience to design cases that meet the highest demands and closed a gap in the market with his quality products. The photo speaks volumes - the 500 kg test, which is based on a well-known Hiscox photo with 6 men on a suitcase is demonstrated, shows the stability of the HISCOX-CASES due to the unique Liteflite construction. The results of the hot-cold experiment also show why HISCOX instrument cases stand out from other cases on the market. Well-known manufacturers of high-quality guitars, such as B. Hanika, Lakewood and Lowden deliver their instruments with Hiscox cases made in England.
Due to the interior moulding design, this case will take many different Bass types similar in size to the iconic Precision / Jazz styles. The ability to withstand an incredible ½ tonne of crush weight combined with unique shock-absorbing technology and exceptional temperature control makes Hiscox cases stand out from the crowd.
