Ok, I think I'm starting to see the problem.

I find it baffling that people who make gigbags (and cases) don't feel the need to advertise what the actual shape and dimensions of their cases are internally. So it seems that if you have any non-standard shape of intrument you're mostly reduced to buying blind.

The best info I've found is the Warwick catalogue. They've got loads of different bags, and the catalogue gives some of the dimensions, and the diagrams might help you figure out what'll fit. Of course, then you've got the fun of finding somebody who sells it, but if you've got a catalogue number then that's a start. The catalogue is here: [url="http://www.warwick-distribution.de/en_GB/"]http://www.warwick-distribution.de/en_GB/[/url]

Ta. I'll have a look. All I really need is a bag that will fit a Precision with an extra 4 inches (vicar).

It looks like Warwick notionally have quite a few - RB20503 looks like it should be plenty long enough (59.5" whereas you only need about 49"), but there may be some less "shapey" ones that still have enough length for you. (Oo-er missus!)

My impression is that once you've got the cat number, google will probably turn up a dealer or two (usually in German or Switzerland) that'll actually sell you the bag, although you might also find a UK dealer if you look hard enough.

OK, I'll try again ... how about a bag for a BC Rich Warlock:

Irritatingly, they don't give the actual dimensions, but a Warlock is probably about 4" longer than a P-bass.

I have a large Tribal Planet gig bag which I used to get the Epiphone Flying Vee into - that's a long body and a shorter neck but the overall length is pretty similar. These aren't made any more , but someone had one for sale in the misc for sale forum here, possibly warwickhunt?
