Guitar Cases

Newbie here. I looked for an applicable thread, but couldn't find one. I apologize if there's already a thread with this subject.
Anybody know of a good hard shell case that will fit a Durango Iron Horse? The body is a bit smaller than most Tele's so the cases I've tried are a bit too big....just enough for the guitar to bounce around in.

Welcome! I must admit I've gone the DIY route and added foam plastic cut to shape to cushion my non-standard-shape (MP Marauder) Fender. Not very elegant, but functional.

Looks like a regular tele body shape. Is it smaller or thinner perhaps?

You've cracked another case, sunshiner.

Only now realised you were talking about the problem. So my point was guitar looks like a standard sized tele, why would it wobble inside a standard tele case?

Sounds like it's CUSTOM-CUT FOAM TIME

Hey, I hear ya. The body can be narrower or thinner. Depending on that you look for a solution. If it's thinner than the regualr 45 mm thickness you look for an SG style case. If it is narrower than a usual tele body then you try a different option. From what I've seen from the pictures the guitar width wise is your generic tele, that's why I asked my question. I appreciate "that's obvious dumbface" attitude though
