Hull-based international guitar case manufacturer Scott Dixon Inc. is celebrating its 20th anniversary and the 70th birthday of founder John Dixon.
The brand, which launched in 2004, is market leader in lightweight aluminium flight cases and is very much focused on the touring music industry.
The Scott Dixon signature product is the Triple Row Guitar case, a lightweight case that safely holds three guitars – and is used by bands worldwide.
MD Dave Hutty, who heads up the management team, including his wife Tracy along with John & Lee Dixon, said: “In the last year alone, our cases have been sent to The Pretenders, Niall Horan and Seal, to name just a few. We also produced some bespoke cases to support Bruce Dickinson’s recent Mandrake Project Tour.”
Having survived the global pandemic on the touring music industry, the team is now working hard on several new products to expand its range both within the music industry as well as looking at other markets where a lightweight case will make a great impact. Dave continued:
“It’s a very exciting time to be a part of this company – and myself and the team are looking forward to the next twenty years of developing new and exciting products. We can make a case for pretty much anything!”
Founder John Dixon said: “It’s great to have Dave and Tracy on board, along with my son Lee. I’m looking forward to seeing what the next twenty years brings.”
