I bought a dead Breadwinner about a year ago - it was in terrible shape, poor thing. Some dimehead took the claw end of a hammer to it and beat the ever-living shizz out of it after painting the body with peach house paint. Bought the poor little bugger for $400 USD because the electronics were pulled yet working - I guess I was gunna do something with it other than what I've done: I wasn't gunna keep it...

...but I did. Took it home, put some jazz strings on it as it was, beat silly, and it played really well. I took it over to my guy and he filled and painted it nitro black, complete fret job (jumbos), and set it up. We played it for a while and figured out that it sounded like a tele, so I bought some Texas Specials and set it up pup -> vol -> kill -> out for each pickup, and had guy cut new plates (old nitro stock - Tortoiseshell/W/B/W) for it. Picked up some beak knobs for the volume.

Now I'd never sell it. Never. Sounds fantastic. Anyway, why the long story?

I NEED A CASE!

Can't find an OHSC for this zombified Breadwinner. I looked all over for one. Looked for a case that might work that isn't the OHSC - can't find one. Asked Eastwood to sell me one - they've got some kind of issue with ownership and can't sell them. Ebay? None.

Anyone have an idea?

Thanks. First time caller.

I always liked the looks of the Breadwinner and Deluxe.

Great info - thanks!
