How can I unlock an ancient guitar case?
My dad has this old electric guitar in an equally old guitar case (Purchased in the 70′s). He never uses it and I’d like to but the case is locked and the keys are missing. I want to get in the case without wrecking the locks on the front (there are two latch based locks), or the case in general. I even tried picking them with a paper clip but to no avail. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions that they have tried or know work? I’d appreciate any suggestions!
Because it’s got great sentimental value, I would take it to a Lock Smith. They might not even charge you very much because of the sentiment.
