Don, I will be happy to give you a free case if you order another double-neck through me!

I have an OLP doubleneck, and after doing a whole bunch of research, I could never find any indication that a case was ever available. Mine came with the gig-bag, but haven't been able to find a hardshell to fit it.
If you ever do find one, I would be very interested to find out about it....
Don, that's a win-win situation if you ask me!

Drats...it's a birthday present...he has been paying on it for a while and his mother paid it off for him. I guess he will just have to be careful with it. He (His name is Kevin) is a HUGE John Petrucci and DT fan and hopefully I will be getting him a JP from Pete for his next birthday. The boy has some serious musical talent...very proud daddy here.
Thanks for the help guys.

I'm looking at the possibility of making flight cases for some of my gear - maybe you could make one with him as a school project?

they look perfect and should be easy enough to modify if need be
I bet that you can order a custom Tour Case (or Flight Case) which is one of the safest ways to protect your guitar. Once I had this Jackson RR guitar and there was no chance to get decent case here in Poland. I decided to order one at Paco - Cases (local leader in making professional cases). The result was amazing. So I suggest to look for a manufacurer who specializes in such types of hard cases...at least if you don't find proper hardshell (abs case or alike).

Hey Tony - thanks for those suggestions, but I had an Epi G1275 and bought a used case for another doubleneck I have that is a lawsuit knockoff of the EDS1275 and it was too narrow - the OLP won't fit in that case.
I may try to contact the company through that Douglas site and see if they also provide the centre to centre measurements for the neck cradles - while I realize that the price is not bad, I wouldn't want to get into too much modification to the case - it won't be much use if the necks on the OLP don't line up with, and lie nicely in, the neck cradles...
Thanks for the tip!

Grumpy, no problem. I just did a google search for doubleneck cases, and those seemed like the most feasible options. It might be that a custom case would be the answer. I also don't know if it would be possible to order a doubleneck Silo case for the OLP from customer service. But I suppose it couldn't hurt to ask. . . . .
