Does anyone know of a manufacturer that makes a "slip cover" for an acoustic guitar case. I am going to Vegas this week and want a cover to protect the guitar case. Something duarble that leaves only the handle exposed for instance.

I've been using one for years. Just Google "Guitar Case Cover". There are a number of them out there. ie. http://coloradocase.com/guitar-2.aspx

Depends on why you want a case cover.

Dog's suggestion is a padded version that gives some people good vibes about protecting their beautiful pebbled plastic case surfaces from nasty gouges and mild temperature changes. A friend of mine who has one-off 1928 Gibsons and Prairie States (Larson Bros.) swears by them.

If you have a Calton that is light colored, you don't need a case cover, but some people still use one.

If you want thermal protection, with no protection of your gorgeous pebbled plastic, against vicious United Airlines baggage handlers, try Randy Allen's space blanket Climate Case:

Works wonders to protect one of our multimillion dollar guitars when we go from 70 deg. F oil-fired luxury (at $4.00 a gal.)to -20 deg F. outside. Oh yeah, our beautiful pebbled plastic case exteriors have a few gouges and our Caltons have tire marks and rips in the glass reinforced poyester AKA Fiberglass.. Also, they have many poster strips that French non Securite have put on them.

Your choice.

Besides, if you have a decent guitar, Randy Allen made your fretboard.
