MONO Teams Up with Polyphia’s Tim Henson for a Limited-Edition Dual Electric Guitar Case
SINGAPORE; 17 SEPTEMBER 2026 – MONO (monocreators.com), the world’s leading design-driven brand for the modern musician, proudly unveils the MONO x Tim Henson M80 Classic Dual Electric Guitar Case, marking the debut of MONO’s first-ever artist collaboration and a first look at what happens when MONO’s design DNA meets a player who approaches gear with the same relentless attention to detail.
Designed in collaboration with Polyphia guitarist and virtuoso Tim Henson, the limited-edition case brings together MONO’s design-led philosophy with Henson’s creative perspective. Developed over months of prototyping, from initial concepts to the final build, it reflects a shared commitment to purposeful design and uncompromising functionality.
Beyond his distinctive approach to guitar, Henson has a deep appreciation for design and aesthetics, making him a natural collaborator for MONO. A longtime MONO user alongside his band Polyphia, he has relied on MONO gear throughout his career, making this collaboration a meeting of MONO’s industry-leading approach to instrument protection and one of the most innovative guitarists of his generation.
Launching alongside Polyphia’s latest single, “Power in the Blood”, the campaign follows a day in the life of Henson, carrying his Ibanez nylon-string and electric guitars in the MONO x Tim Henson M80 Classic Dual Guitar Case. Henson shares why he partnered with MONO to create his signature case, the thinking behind the features he selected, and how his creative vision shaped the final product.
“I’ve been using MONO gear for years, so I’m very happy to have gotten the opportunity to make my own version of the M80 Classic Dual,“ said Tim Henson. “I’m constantly switching between my electric and nylon-string signature guitars, so having one case that carries both and looks exactly the way I want it to is perfect.”
MONO x Tim Henson M80 Classic Dual Electric Guitar Case features include:
- Built on MONO’s patented dual protection design, the case safely carries two guitars within a single streamlined profile.
- A distinctive square-patterned front panel is paired with a custom off-white plush interior for a refined visual statement.
- A specially incorporated front handle provides greater control and versatility when carrying the case.
- A custom Polyphia metal badge adds a signature detail unique to the collaboration.
- Durable, water-resistant Sharkskin™ exterior provides reliable protection for travel and touring.
- A reinforced steel-riveted webbing handle offers lasting strength, comfort and durability.
- MONO’s patented Headlock® neck suspension system securely supports and protects both instruments while in transit.
