Roqsolid cover or case for my Ampeg V4?

[squire]

Hi there,

I'm playing in two different bands. And I want to start using the same amp (Ampeg v4) for both bands. The only downside is that I have to move the Ampeg v4 twice a week by car to rehearsal. Will a Roqsolid cover be enough protective or should I get a hardshell case?

I'm leaning towards the Roqsolid cover. Much more affordable and much less weight.

What do you guys reckon?

I`ve had Roqsolid covers on my last, probably, 6 cabs, and they have always provided excellent protection. So long as the amp doesn`t have too much of an area to slide about in, the Roqsolid should be fine - and will certainly protect against rain etc when transporting from car to venue.

What did you run with in the end?

I keep my V4 in a live in flightcase and so far ( fingers crossed) never have had any mishaps! I'd say if you're only moving it by car then the roqsolid case would be fine, but if it's with a gigging band with a van, then a flightcase is the way to go...
