My Gator TSA 76D final arrived after the sent me the wrong one the first time. It came with two spacer pads for the bottom and two stack attached to the top. The top stacks can be separated into six different pieces. Since this is not a custom case specifically for the Kronos 73, I was wondering if anybody had pictures of how they set theirs up?
Since the case is both longer and wider than the Kronos, I used one of the bottom pads to keep the keyboard from sliding to the back and one to keep it from sliding to the side. It seemed to hold best if I left the two stacks of three pads attached to the top, but that seemed a bit tight when I closed the lid.

I have the 61, but I put my two spacers at the bottom to cushion it when setting upright (on its side) and spread the stacks evenly 1 thick across the top

Here is a picture of how I setup my case. I have all 6 of the top pads stacked in two rows. If I spaced all six out on top, when I set the case on its back edge the keyboard slid over the pad on the bottom back

In which way does the 73 not fit? depth, length wise or both?

They may sell additional spacers for the sides or they can recommend an aftermarket company that does.
Good Luck and post your results.
I did not see any casters, does it have wheels and a rolling handle?

I'm just selling mine

What isn't obvious from this case is that it is a PIG to carry any distance.
All the weight is concentrated on one arm.
It's also a bugger to lift into the back of my Jeep.

I'm selling mine which I bought for my Hammond SK2 and replacing it with the old style which has two carry handles.

I have a keyboard case from Thomann ... and it sounds strange, but what matters most to me (except some decent quality), is that the hand grip is not from hard plastic but softer (leather or fake leather). This last is really important because it feels like the weight is a lot less because of the hard plastic grips on most cases really 'strain' into your fingers.

What happened to the official Korg cases?? I don't want to have to do any custom jobs. I can't find the Korg cases anymore. They must have made one batch and then discontinued them.

I noticed that cases with a leather (or maybe fake leather) grip FEELS a lot lighter than a hard plastic grip. Although the weight is the same, with a plastic grip, the weight cuts through your fingers and the weight is pressed unevenly among them. With a (fake?) leather grip the weight is spread more evenly and it is really a lot of difference.

I never want to buy a hard case / flight case with a hard plastic grip anymore.
