Student instruments come in fractional sizes that many case lines ignore. Filling this gap is easy incremental revenue.
The Sizes
- 1/4 size: roughly 30 inches total – youngest students
- 1/2 size: roughly 34 inches – early primary school
- 3/4 size: roughly 36-38 inches – older children and small adults
Why Retailers Miss This
Fractional cases are bought with the instrument, not after. Schools and parents rarely find the right size online because listings are vague. Clear sizing labels convert.
Line Recommendation
Offer 1/2 and 3/4 as padded gig bags plus one hardshell option each. Include a size chart in every listing. Bundle with the matching student guitar for school programs.
We supply fractional cases with size labels printed on the interior tag – a detail school buyers notice.
