SKB 66 and Ibanez SZ520 
2008-04-17
I've been looking to find a light weight and durable case to store my Ibanez SZ520. My first option was to go with an Ibanez case. The Ibanez RG550LC seemed to be very durable but a bit expensive and its wood construction would make it heavy and a bit bulky for me. The classic MC100 case, perfect for my S Style guitar, wasn't right for the SZ shape. I decided to go with the SKB because their website listed the SZ as a guitar model that would fit the 66.
The case that arrived is the latest version of the 66 with the TSA latch. The case handle was made of a hard rubber that provides a good grip. I didn't find the top lid as sturdy or rigid as the MC100 for the same money. The interior plush is pretty good and does the job. I did notice the bottom foam came right out. For whatever reason, the adhesive failed to glue the foam to the bottom of the case.
The lower bout of the SZ fits very snugly in the case. The SZ lower bout is 12.75". Amazon has the case lower bout listed at 13" and SKB's website has it at 12.5". The actual size appears to be 12.75". The neck support raises the upper bout of the SZ off the bottom. So the guitar body isn't completely resting flat. You have to make sure the guitar neck is placed correctly in the neck support groove or the lid won't close.
Closing the lid, I found the fit to be just a tiny bit too snug with very little or no space to clear the volume/tone knobs. I was able to close the case with no difficulty. With it closed, the SZ did not move around. Over time the foam may adjust to the shape of the SZ.
Overall, a decent fit for the SZ but not perfect. If your primary concern is storing your SZ(as is mine), the case will do but you probably can find a cheaper case to do that. Fortunately I had an amazon gift card, so the case cost me nothing.

Bought this for my Ibanez SAS36. It fits perfect and feels secure. Nice cut outs for accessories as well. I really like the locks on this. The hinges and handle are top quality as well.
