I've been looking for a case that holds nothing more than 12 harmonicas. I have the Hohner briefcase pack that holds 12, but this case looks more compact.
If you have one, will it hold Golden Melodys and is it a pretty good case?
I give away a lot of harps to kids so the cheap harps are fine.

I bought a couple of these cases several years ago at a Buckeye Harmonica Festival (actually 2 different times) to hold my set of LO Natural Minors and a set of extra harps in various keys.
I forget what I paid for them, but they were very inexpensive. I'm not sure how well the zipper will hold up over time.
If the harp doesn't fit with the mouthpiece/holes up, it will probably fit with the holes down.... just tried it with a Golden Melody, and you have to have the holes down to fit.
Now I have a big custom case that I keep most of my harps in, and a Hal Iwan harp case with a couple different foam inserts.
If you're looking for a case to carry around and use alot, I recommend the Seydel 14-harp case, or a Hal Iwan case.

Considering they are coming from Bushman, it's a gamble that their distributor will ever see one. Personally, I'd find a different case.
I picked up a foam insert from Hal Iwan for about ten bucks more. I paid another ten bucks for a case from Harbor Freight. I've got space for 20 harps, a bullet mic, cable and an effects pedal in a package not much larger than what you're considering.
Additionally, a Vaultz pencil case will hold a dozen harps and it runs about $7 at Staples.

I just bought a couple of Hohner leather cases that hold 7 harps, any harp will fit. Classy looking, opens like a book, magnetic closures. I really like it, not sure where to find it, got these 2 on ebay. They were cheap!
