dean-kane Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 [u][b]First ever post ![/b][/u] Recently acquired an SWR Triad cab and it is one of the newer models with the carpet finish (which is impossible to keep clean) Due to the fact that this cab is ridiculously expensive (for an unemployed 19 year old, which i am) i am looking for professional looking flight cases that don't cost more than my house. Can anyone PLEASE help me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samuelcroberts Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Thinking about it as well... If you're mainly worried about dust, dirt etc. and general bumps, just get a padded cover from Roqsolid or someone similar. I wouldn't suggest a flightcase unless you're lugging the cab in a van with loads of gear or if you're actually putting it in the hold of a plane. Flightcases are bloody heavy...

Westie9 Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 As the above mentioned, it'll look great and no doubt prolong the life of your cab BUT pair that up with the weight issue and after the first gig no doubt you'll regret it. A decent padded cover should do you. Roqsolid covers used to have the option of a sleeve being made for the front so that you could add a piece of plywood etc to help protect it.

A flightcase will certainly protect your cab but it will also probably take chunks out of the doors, frames, and walls of your house! Anyway, cabs are not really delicate objects like, say, a mixer so a padded cover should be all that's necessary to keep them nice and clean - unless you're in a hard-gigging touring band with a team of knuckle-dragging roadies.
