My banjo has guitar style tuners on the headstock. Can the case accommodate this or does it only fit behind headstock tuners?

I got out my Washburn D-13/S flat top fitted with nice big Grover tuners and the headstock fitted nicely into the TKL. As a matter of fact, the outer edges of the tuners just barely brushed the plush liner on each side leaving adequate room for even a slightly larger headstock. As an aside remark, the case that was shipped to me had a loose brad in one of the fasteners which I know the company would have made good but the shipping charges and time involved did not justify going that route. I can repair that with little effort and the price was right.John Luckie, Weatherford, Texas I got out my Washburn D-13/S flat top fitted with nice big Grover tuners and the headstock fitted nicely into the TKL.

I suppose the obvius solution is to measure the width of the neck of the TKL case, which I did. It will accomodate a width of 4 1/2 inches, maybe 1/4 of an inch more allowing for the depth of the plush lining.John Luckie

Yes. It looks like it has room. There's about an inch of clearance on both sides.

John,I bought the case to replace a tattered one that came with a four string tenor banjo I was repairing. I do not have nay measurements... sorry. Good quality case for the money, though.Frank

I set mine up so that the adjustment holes are behind my back when I have my banjo up to play. That puts the longer padded portion of the strap connected to the fretboard side.

Hi, If it's a short scale bass, I would lean more to say that it may not fit due to the fact that the headstock will fall short to be completly protected. I'm sorry but I can't say for sure.

I would need to measure to be sure, but I think the 30 inch length will fit and my banjo has a reverberation chamber about 18-20 inches in diameter. I think you will find the case will work.

I actually did not get a soft case, rather I had an old cardboard type case for a standard 5 string banjo and use that. It should fit in most standard banjo cases.

My thunderbird fits pretty well in here but it still has room for a bit more length. The 5 string should not be that much longer but if it is, it still has room for it. Also the space for the headstock is open enough to fit the extra tuning peg. I would say get this case if you're looking to fit your bass

I'm using acoustic string guitar & it dose fit. I didn't try it in the ukulele, but although it has small neck I think it will fit.

Can't say for sure but I believe the bottom support would work good since it is wide enough for a acoustic guitar. No sure where the neck of the banjo would fall on the back support. I think you would be ok since the bottom is cushioned with a soft rubbery cover and I always put a soft rag over the upper part where the back of the guitar would sit against it. Tim

I have that exact guitar. I had to do some serious modification to get my guitar to fit. It involved pulling back the fabric lining and chipping away at the wood underneath. I would have to recommend a different case since the pressure on the neck of a guitar due to a case that is too small, may effect the integrity of the instrument. I have had tuning issues with mine, but I'm not sure of the cause of this.

Tuner is a Yamaha GCT1 you can use it for other instruments (violin, guitar, ukulele etc..) and yes it does clip to the headstock

My banjo is 13 inch fits perfect. This is a soft case. The outside seams measure 14 inches. You could possibly squeeze it in. It would not be a perfect fit. It is a nice case though.

I have no direct experience with tuning Banjo heads, however this tool works by measuring tension. If you banjo is tuned with mechanical tuners I am sure you would be able to repurpose this tool to your use.

Yes, I agree with the others on this. The stand should work fine for a guitar or a banjo.

Total length inside the case is 40", however, I have a reg. size banjo and it could accommodate a neck 2.5 inches longer than mine. Hope that helps.

It should fit in the case no problems, but you will probably have to take off the tremolo bar (whammy bar) mine is a Stratocaster and it fits very well as long as I take off the bar, otherwise, it won't close. This is good though, because I rarely use the bar and it is easy enough to put on and take off anyway, and it keeps the guitar from sliding around and coming out of tune. This is the best case I have ever had.

No but I have them for a 6 string, a dobro, two ukuleles and a banjo. It conforms to the headstock so it shouldn't be a problem.
