Product Details

Total Protection & The Perfect Fit

Bearing the famous Brian May Guitars logo and engineered specifically to accommodate the unique dimensions of the BMG Special, this upgraded Liteflite Pro II case, made in England by industry pioneers Hiscox, features a super-tough outer shell, form-fitting, velour lined interior, flightcase style handle, rigid aluminium valance, and secure five-point closure.

Hiscox Triple Shield Technology

Crush Strength: Can withstand an immense 500kg (½ tonne) crushing weight, ensuring your instrument is completely protected and able to tolerate the fiercest pressures.

Shock Absorbance: Hiscox’s unique Shock Absorbance Technology (SAT) utilizes a proprietary polyurethane blend bonded to the outer shell and lining to create one solid, lightweight structure that acts as one of the most shock absorbent composites on the planet, reducing the heaviest of impacts to safe levels and keeping your instrument protected even in the most demanding conditions.

Thermal Insulation: Thermo-Balance Engineering (TBE) resists changes to temperature and reduces rapid heating or cooling of the interior of the case. This essential technology helps prevent stringed instruments losing their tuning through expansion or contraction, meaning that your instrument stays in tune longer whatever the weather conditions.

For players on the move, this exclusive custom case is an essential extra for the classic Antique Cherry BMG Special, as well as for all LE Series and Art Series and Left Handed models.

For over 20 years, Hiscox Cases have consistently provided total protection and the perfect fit for all our instruments whilst delivering and transporting them, safely and stylishly, all over the world.

Founded in the UK in 1985, the Hiscox team has established a worldwide reputation for excellence with a range of superior quality, lightweight, composite moulded instrument cases that offers robust and affordable protection and they have yet again proved to be perfect partners for the development of this new, upgraded version of the best-selling BMG fitted case.

Hiscox Liteflite 'Triple Shield Technology' construction combines a moulded, impact resistant, Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) outer shell, bonded directly to a padded, velour lined, form-fitted inner foam moulding.

ABS, due to its unique balance of properties, produces mouldings which possess superior strength, durability and rigidity over a wide temperature range and, on our new 2022 cases, the thickness of this outer shell (normally 1.5mm) has been increased by 33%, providing twice the puncture and impact resistance compared with our previous standard specification.

The interior, custom moulded using a proprietary polyurethane insulating foam developed by Hiscox, has also been thickened considerably for this new iteration. Although feather-light, the blended material's semi-rigid cellular structure offers an extremely high level of shock-resistance. The unique bonding of the inner moulding to the outer shell adds matchless structural integrity and enormous crush strength resistance (up to 500kg) as well as excellent thermal protection for your instrument against environmental changes

The case lining is completed with a deep-pile, non-shedding, velvet plush fabric bonded directly onto the shaped foam moulding (without secondary adhesive) giving a neatly tailored, luxurious feel and a snug, secure fit. Additional internal padding further improves the custom fit, cushioning the instrument more effectively, and reducing the potential for movement in transit.

The aluminium valance of the case edging is unique to Hiscox, its design not only increasing the strength of the case, but also ensuring a positive location of base to lid when the two halves are closed. Unlike any other case available on the market, the valance extends deep inside the case behind the plastic shell, into which all the hardware (handle, catches, hinges etc.) is riveted. This method of fixing greatly reduces the possibility of fittings working loose.

Extra protection
Rating:

Even though my guitar came with a great gig bag, I wanted the extra protection of a hard case, especially one that's fitted specifically for the guitar.

I like more protection than a gig bag. Was a bit disappointed that Guitar Center wouldn't obtain the case for me, but the BMG website was great.

Thanks guys!

The hard case is strong, durable, beautiful and perfectly made. It’s even vegan, no animal products, of course and the interior is top quality plush lining. Ordering was easy and I received updates as the shipping process went along. It was shipped with care, in a durable box. Thank you.

The right case for my BM guitar

Until now I have transported and stored my guitar in a gig bag. That wasn’t safe enough for me. This high-quality Hiscox case is perfect.

Many thanks to Brian May Guitars / House Music for the very quick and easy transaction.

Unfortunately, the case became very expensive due to the additional customs duty that had to be paid.

I bought the hardshell case and since it's not available in the States I wanted protection for my BMG. Wow! Was I surprised when it showed up! I wasn't expecting this kind of quality... But I'll take it. Attention to detail... Locks.... Padding... Carpet... Perfect for this guitar. Thanks guys.... I may have to order more stuff from you just because it seems QUALITY! THANK YOU

Good material, beautiful, it was interesting to add to the guitar, I don't regret the purchase, but as long as the customs fees remain the same, I won't buy again in the UK. The taxes to be paid in Portugal are at a prohibited amount, the importation was extremely expensive.

Thanks for the prompt delivery. Case looks great. I'm buying-in incrementally. I hope to put it to use in summer 2023 as I'm saving to purchase a BMG Special.

Shipping costs make it a bit of a reach given inflation all-around.

Everything about dealing with BMG feels great to me as a customer. I appreciate your focus on customer service - seems to be a lost art these days.

Hi Hiscox & Brian May Guitars

I just wanted to share a story with you, and say a big thank you!

I recently had a house fire - sunlight focused by a shaving mirror of all things. The middle floor of my small terraced house in Salisbury was ablaze for around 15 minutes before the firemen put it out.

Despite returning from a band practise the previous day and not unpacking, I thought my guitars on the third floor landing, only 2m directly above the fire, would be ruined and an Ibanez and Epiphone were pretty badly damaged mostly from smoke & water (despite being in their own branded cases).

However, my Brian May Special in its Hiscox case was practically unscathed, despite also being stood on by a firefighter (see attached photo) and subject to so much heat, smoke and water!



So I wanted to say a big thank you, and I will certainly be using Hiscox in the future!

Cheers, Richard

Needed this quickly for it to help protect my BMG Special during my move to Thailand.

Service was great and delivery was well within what was a VERY tight deadline before we left the UK.

Many thanks!

I wasn't going to risk a guitar like the BMG special without a hard case. The signature in the caes itself was a nice touch.

Snug case

02 February 2022  | 

This case offers good protection for the Special which fits in snugly, when closed, there is no movement of the instrument. The internal box pocket is a useful addition for those essential bits & pieces, I'm very happy with this case which I think is a must to protect a guitar of this quality.

I have had my Red Special since 2003, it's actually a Burns model, but I've never had a case for it. I'm happy that Brian May Guitars has such a sturdy case that fits well and protects the guitar.

Highly recommended!
