# Vintage-Inspired Axe Carriers Brixton x Fender Guitar Case Protects Instruments in Style By Matt Ho | Published 2011-11-16 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brixton-x-fender-guitar-case References: [uncrate](http://uncrate.com/stuff/brixton-x-fender-guitar-case/) & [brixton](http://www.brixton.com/brixton-fenderr-guitar-case.html) Touring guitarists should make sure their instrument is protected by investing in the Brixton x Fender Guitar Case. While guitar bags are light and travel-friendly, it's not the best way to carry the instrument around in. The Brixton x Fender Guitar Case is a much safer option because it's a hard case, which is usually way more reliable. The two slots inside secure the instrument in place, while the soft, padded interior prevents the guitar from getting scratched up. In the middle of the case is a compartment that's perfect for holding picks, extra packs of strings, tuners and more. The design isn't too shabby either with a [vintage-inspired look](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gibsons-certified-vintage-program) that screams rock n' roll. Whether you have a [classic Les Paul Gibson](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/les-paul-custom-70s) or a sweet Rickenbacker, the Brixton x Fender Guitar Case will be perfect to store it in. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.5/10 - Popularity: 2% | Activity: 4% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Vintage-inspired Guitar Cases:** Opportunity for custom-designed vintage-inspired guitar cases that combine style with functionality. - **Hard Cases for Instruments:** Potential to create and market hard cases as a safer alternative to soft guitar bags for instrument protection during travel. - **Integrated Storage Compartments:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for guitar cases with integrated compartments to hold accessories like picks, strings, and tuners. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Musical Instruments:** Opportunity for guitar case manufacturers to explore innovative designs and materials to cater to musicians' needs for instrument protection. - **Fashion and Accessories:** Opportunity for fashion brands to collaborate with instrument manufacturers and create stylish, vintage-inspired guitar cases that cater to musicians' fashion sensibilities. - **Travel and Luggage:** Potential for luggage companies to expand their product lines and offer specialized hard cases for musical instruments for traveling musicians. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Affordable Retro-Style Guitars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retrostyle-guitar.md) - [Musician Collaborative Guitar Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shiotsuka-moeka.md) - [Iconic Vintage Electric Guitars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fender.md) - [Wearable High-Quality Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fender-x-teufel.md) - [Packable Electroacoustic Travel Guitars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travel-guitar.md) - [Reimagined High-End Guitars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/highend-guitar.md) - [Travel-Friendly Folding Guitars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travelfriendly-folding-guitar.md) - [Eclectic Electro-Acoustic Guitar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electroacoustic-guitar.md) - [Fashion-Forward Guitar Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gibson-and-marc-jacobs.md)
