Steve,

How long have you had the Kaces Porter? I used on for my CX-3 for about 6 months, but after that, the case began to sag a bit, and I was concerned that it wasn't really protecting the keyboard any more -- at least, not from the bigger hits. It's basically a gig bag case, and gig bags are iffy for instruments over 20-25 lbs, IMHO.

Regards,

-BW
