The Light Goes On

Gator has added something useful to their guitar cases.

A light.

It turns on when the case is opened. It turns off when the case is closed.

Funny how something like this seems so obvious in a certain context, like opening a car door, and seems so utterly out of context for a guitar case. And yet, it makes perfect sense. There are many times I have opened a guitar case in a dark room wishing I had a light source to find an accessory. In my case, if you can pardon the pun, I have Strats where the tremolo bar is tucked away each time the guitar is returned to its case. Finding them can be a bit of a nuisance in a dark room.

Having a light source is a useful improvement. I like that. Particularly in my old age.
