Schecter hardcase for Ultracure -VI vs Schecter hardcase for Sixx -NS
Both are USA-made Schecter hardcases with nearly identical core construction—hardwood with black Tolex, Monkey Fur lining, bonded leather handles, and metal latches. The Sixx (SGR-21-NS) is specifically designed to fit Nikki Sixx's signature bass and includes a lockable middle latch, while the UltraCure (SGR-16UC-VI) is a more general-purpose case with standard latching. Choose the Sixx if you own a Schecter Nikki Sixx bass; choose the UltraCure for any other guitar or bass.
No sales tax on orders shipped outside California — total cost beats national retailers that charge sales tax in nearly every state.
