What's kind of cool about this case is that being 30 years old, there is a rip in the fabric by where the upper horn goes. Thanks to this rip, I can see that the damn thing is nothing but injection molded ABS with velour glued to it. So I was planning on going down to the fabric store and buying a few yards of velour. That way, I could rip this stuff out, wash the plastic down with bleach-water (or something) to make sure I've killed all the mildew, then hot glue new material to the plastic.
Then it occurred to me... My two youngest children are still young enough that they still have all these soft, cutesy, blankets with cartoon characters printed on them. I think I'm going to steal a couple of their blankets and glue those in instead, so when you open my case it's going to be batman, or the hulk or something, instead of boring ass brown velour.
Obviously, I would prefer to have been able to keep the case original, however, it smells of mildew so something has to be done. I'll keep desiccant in there once I'm done. And yay! It gives me another project. See my ranty post in the pointless thread about how I like to do stupid things that other people don't do.
On another note, I think my wife must have taken the nice digital camera to work with her (pretty common) but I'll try to get a T-60 pic or two up later tonight.
Edit: The UPS man came to the door today with a big ass box addressed to my wife with a guitarfetish return address on it. Looks like I'm getting things I want for Christmas this year, woo hoo.
