Frequently Asked Questions

Key information for overseas distributors, retail store buyers, and procurement specialists.

What structural materials are utilized across Oscar Schmidt cases?

Our hardshell cases utilize multi-ply cross-laminated hardwood or high-strength composite shells, paired with scratch-resistant vinyl exteriors and plush non-abrasive interior velour. Our soft gig bags feature heavy 600D to 1200D water-repellent nylon paired with closed-cell shock mitigation foam.

Yes. Internal dimensions are precisely engineered with flexible contours and dedicated bridge and neck reliefs that snugly accommodate both left-handed variants and models with built-in electronic preamps and controls.

How are cases packaged for ocean freight container shipments?

All cases are individually packaged in protective moisture-barrier polybags, reinforced with edge cushioning, and packed into heavy corrugated master cartons that are stack-tested for high-cube container transit.
