Thoughts on Roadrunner molded ABS dreadnought case?
Does anyone have any guidance to offer on this case:
 http://www.guitarcenter.com/Road-Run...87277337314.gc It gets good reviews and in my limited exposure to it seems well-made and nice-looking. Anyone want to steer me toward it or away from it? Would it be okay to fly with?

I have one that came with a used guitar I bought a while back. It's an OK case if you just need something to keep your guitar in. I would never fly with it, if that means checked baggage. Maybe if you could carry it on you would be fine.
I would recommend a Hiscox LiteFlight Pro II. More money, but you would probably never have to replace it or worry about flying with it.

It's decent but not much better than that. The one I owned let the guitar move around too much for my taste.

I think those are the same as the lower-priced case at Musician's Friend. Also sometimes on sale at a lower price ($20 off), or can be purchased when 10-15% coupons are available.
http://www.musiciansfriend.com/acces...ic-guitar-case Unfortunately, currently backordered to Jan. 21. They do this sometimes, cycling availability between all of Guitar Center's entities. Same ship date from Music123. http://www.music123.com/accessories/...ic-guitar-case

I've got one of the cheaper Roadrunner wood cases. The clasps are really cheap, bend and break.
