Frequently asked questions

What guitar models does each case fit?

The MH XL LH fits left-handed M, H, and MH baritone models only. The ST-TE fits right-handed LTD ST and TE series, ESP George Lynch and LTD GL series, ESP Ron Wood and LTD Ron Wood series, and E-II TE series guitars.

Are these cases suitable for touring?

Both are budget-tier hardcases suitable for transport. The ST-TE is explicitly tagged for gigging, touring, and studio sessions. The MH XL LH prioritizes form-fitted protection for baritones but is designed for travel and storage.

What's the main material difference?

The MH XL LH features a black hardshell exterior. The ST-TE uses a wood shell covered with tolex, which offers weather resistance and slightly different durability characteristics.

Can I use the wrong case for my guitar?

No. The MH XL LH is designed exclusively for left-handed baritones and will not fit standard-scale or right-handed guitars. The ST-TE is for right-handed guitars only and will not accommodate left-handed instruments.
