triplebass

David Gage Czech Ease travel double bass with hard-case which i got at a very fair price. I also enjoy very much the Squier Rascal and the HB Mustang basses. Very happy with the Mark bass Tube amp + GR carbon 10” speaker. The worst is yet to come perhaps?

this exactly obviously the wrong place to ask this question, a very biased and presumptuous environment

yes, i got the one i posted - red and black

Yes, the 1/4 is definitely too small. I measured the bass and looked through the 1/2 options and this was the only one that seemed it could possibly maybe fit. And it just does. The bag is still a bit too long but because of that the bass fits where it otherwise wouldn't - it's bottom and bridge area are much deeper than on a 1/2 bass.

update, in case anyone needs some info… bassbags can’t make one as they don’t have the patent or the blueprint… Gage is not replying at all… did a bit of measuring and then I bought a Roth@Junius 1/2 size from Thomann and as much as it’s not a perfect fit i think it will do the job just fine and certainly much better than the original which is falling apart.

on the good side though.. i never heard about these speakers and because of this post i got to know about them

i’m having the same problem with my Gage travel bass bag so i’m looking for a new one. I guess they could make a new one?

Any news on this, does it fit?

i tried one a while ago, it was well built, looked and sounded good, the only thing i noticed was the weak E string. but that seems to be a weakness of the short scale? i’m still contemplating getting one though… and yes, i do like the design, works for me, but obviously not everybody’s cup…

i stand corrected. having said that, i am looking forward very much to the general statistics that will prove me completely wrong.

funny enough you see all sorts of rock, pop, world and i don’t know what else kid of music at a jazz festival but you never see a jazz artist at a rock, pop, world, folk or whatever else festival. ain’t that a nice little twist, everybody’s jazz if needs be, but it only works one way. how lovely and inclusive, so modern too…

i know that, but there’s acts now that have NOTHING to do with jazz, there’s no relation whatsoever to what the idea of jazz is in my understanding but still they’re making it to the line-ups.

It seems that everybody can get a gig at a jazz festival nowadays as long as they are a big name or they don’t play jazz. At least that seems to be the story for quite some time now in european jazz festivals. I was offered a ticket from a friend who was playing the Gent Jazz festival so i checked the program of the day and the main acts were some (what i heard on the embedded video) Adele type rip-offs. And basically the whole program seemed to have about 15% jazz or jazz related music. What’s going on? Is the word jazz so attractive that you can stick anything in the program and your sales are great? Opinions, experiences?
