Description
Crossrock CRA980L ABS Molded Hardshell Guitar Case for Gibson Les Paul - Vibrant Blue
The Crossrock CRA980LVB is a heavy-duty ABS hardshell case precision-molded for the Gibson Les Paul, finished in Vibrant Blue with a beige velvet interior. A built-in TSA-approved lock, molded easy latches, and a widened aluminum valance keep it sealed from check-in to stage, and it fits most single-cutaway guitars of similar size.
How does the CRA980LVB keep a Les Paul from shifting?
A custom-molded EPS foam core follows the Les Paul body shape, while a raised foam pressure pad on the lid presses gently against the body so the guitar stays put in transit. The arched lid leaves room over the bridge to protect your setup from compression, and long-pile plush lining cushions the finish.

Common questions
Which guitars fit the CRA980LVB?
Crossrock lists the Gibson Les Paul, Epiphone Les Paul and Les Paul Junior, ESP Eclipse EC-256FM, Firefly FFLP, and V100 Les Paul-style guitars. For any other single-cut, check its body against the interior measurements above before ordering.
Will it fit an SG, a 335, or a Strat?
No, the foam is molded for single-cut Les Paul bodies. For other shapes, look at Crossrock cases built for them, such as the CRW520SG for SG-style guitars, the CRW520SA for 335 semi-hollows, and the CRW520ST for Strat and Tele styles.
Is the CRA980LVB good for flying?
It was designed for touring. The built-in TSA-approved lock lets airport security open and relock the case, and the molded latches stay shut even when the case takes a hit. As always, confirm your airline's size rules before you fly.
What can I keep in the accessory compartment?
The compartment under the neck has room for spare strings, a cable, a clip-on tuner, picks, and care products, so your gig essentials travel with the guitar.
How does it differ from the black CRA980L?
Only the finish changes. The ABS molding, TSA lock, interior fit, and measurements match the black CRA980L; this one wears a Vibrant Blue shell with a beige velvet interior.
