I just have the Moog brand ATA case, which is great. Personally I would recommend going with that one.

The seller is islandcases aka nycases and other aliases they have used over the years. Their cases are not built very well.

The irony is that I spoke to the chap out on "the island" directly and he claims he made ALL of the Taurus 3 cases for Moog. (and I think people like those from a quality of construction point of view). That or he was a liar : )

They do have rock bottom prices so perhaps they had a fairly well built model that Moog resells for the T3 specifically and they have plenty of low budget models to be competitive with all of the Chinese made garbage on the market. I was talking to them about making me a custom pedalboard case with wheels and a deep footprint for my compressor which is rather tall and they had a bunch of options at the time which sounded bullet proof to balsawood. I'm about 60 miles from there and was going to take a drive out but never got around to it.

I own the T3 case sold from Moog and it is a lot more rugged and better built than Islandcases. There is no "Islandcases" badge anywhere on the case either.
