Well Padded 4/4 Double Bass Bag Suggestions?

Looks beautiful man. Congrats on the bass.

How did you find sitting in the shoppe knowing there where bass's there as much as a house?? Very weird for me.

Hey everyone,

Looking at a new double bass bag, it needs to be a full size bass bag 4/4.

I have used Gewa before and they're nice bags but in my honest opinion I don't know if they're padded enough!
(Annoyingly they're well priced but having a decent case is crucial)

Anyway using the Jaegar?

Really expensive but are they that much better than other cases? (Soundwear 4.4)

Hey, I went for the Turtle and I'm very happy with it. (All of them would of been great to be fair)

I used the Gewa Prestige which is a nice bag but I would say the Turtle is a lit bit more padded. (I only changed because I needed something that was 4/4 not 3/4. My bass is 3/4 but has quite white ribs and therefore the Gewa bag can't take it.

I have the perfect transporting combo now, I use the Turtle but use my double bass buggy to transport it around. Then I cary the bass on my bag with the wheel still attached therefore I can move the bass around easily during trains/buses etc but can still lift the bass when theres lots of stairs etc.
