Got to gig started setting up opened your guitar case to find a guitar other than the one that you intended to do the gig with?

This happened to me on Saturday I must have picked up the wrong hiscox case without noticing so instead of my workhorse strat I opened the case to find my Epi Les Paul. Oh well no single coils tonight.
Don't touch that dial.

    I hope not. The only two cases that are similar are my Hiscox acoustic case and an electric one for my humbucker Tele. It would be a disaster to muddle them up

    Was on stage in first sing of quite a big gig (for me at least) and the acoustic guitarist broke a string.  I thought “that’s fine, he can use my spare electric” turned round and realised it was still in the boot of my car

    No because I always put the guitar(s) I'm going to use in their cases before leaving the house.

    The bass player and I in one band both had Boss GT effects units in exactly the same hard cases. His was the bass version though. I was giging with another band and grabbed what I thought was my GT10 from the van and went to the gig, which was actually Portsmouth Guildhall. Opened up the hard case on stage and there was his bass version. Still used it as a boost in the effects loop

    Not done it but I do own a lot of Hiscox cases. Plus I label the sides so I can see what I’ve grabbed. 

    A mate of mine had kittens recently when he did a 4 band bill and every guitarist (including him) had a Mono Gigbag. Someone accidentally went home with his PRS Custom 24 and he went home with a Strat. But he got it back the next day once they realised.
