"Nice case but is TOO large for a Dreadnought"

It’s a well built case but is too large for a D18 size guitar. In order for it to not slosh around in the case I had to jam a t-shirt on either side of the body because if you put it on only one side it’ll shift the peg head and make the tuners rub on one side of the case, so you have to center the guitar and repack. I can’t believe SKB does this, I mean really what are they thinking. I IMMEDIATELY traded this away for a older TKL hard case that actually fits the guitar. Imagine that? Btw, the guy who I traded with has an old Harmony with a 16 inch body and this case fits perfect.
