Hey everyone, do you have any recommendations for my Kala Dolphin?
I don't like the the soft case that came with my Kala, because I want a more secure option when I take my Ukulele places. My budget is around $40 USD.
Thanks for your help.

Dixie,

Here's one option for a hard case. Good price, and the shipping is free. Check out the measurements in the Specifications section to make sure your uke will fit properly.

Keep in mind that a hard case will be significantly heavier than the one you currently have. A somewhat lighter, but still very protective, option would be a hard foam case. They are easily available; you should have no trouble finding one within your budget.

Best of luck!

I've come to like this type of case for a less than top-of-the-line uke. They're hard, but they're not expensive. I keep my Waterman in the little black that came with it. It's hanging up in my closet.

Ebay has a lot of options. This case would provide all the protection a Dolphin would need. I've got one and it works great.

I bought a couple of those cases - for me and a friend - and they're amazing for the price. What I find funny about looking up cases is that they give the exterior dimensions. Who cares? All I care about is the room inside. I might be able to use 24.5", but not 24". Giving just external dimensions doesn't help very much.

I agree, the case is pretty amazing for the price. I was surprised at how nice it was. The case does run a bit small so the dimensions are important and I don't know why they don't list the interior dimensions. I bought mine for my Kala which I really had to shoe-horn to get it to fit. Fortunately, my Ohana fit in there like a glove so it became the Ohana's home and the Kala went into a Musician's friend case.
