Jon Hammond says, protect your investment in Sk1 Hammond with the custom molded Polyethylene "Polyethylene glycol (PEG)" Flight Case product from Gator Cases
Recommendation from Jon Hammond The GKPE-49-TSA Flight Case for Sk1 Ultra-Portable Organ
Jon Hammond -- When you travel with your instruments as much as I do, you want to have a solid protective flight case for your instrument,
for the new Hammond Sk1 ultra-portable combo organ I highly recommend the GKPE-49-TSA Flight Case from a company called Gator Cases.
The fit is nearly perfect, it locks in to place when you close the case and for extra insurance you can put a small additional piece of foam in the small gap:
