Which case?

[Hector]

Hi gang.

I'm looking to buy a new case for my big lady now that she's back from hospital - the old one has zips going and bits fraying and stuffing coming out. Suddenly having better protection has floated to the top of my consciousness.

Any recommendations for a decent softcase? I'm not fussed about having wheels and bells and whistles on, but would like a nicely padded and fairly durable one if possible. Simple and beautiful a la Forrest Gump. £200 as a ballpark figure, but would prefer under that unless there's a good reason!

I've had a 22mm Westbury soft case for a good four years or so now, used on a weekly basis near and far, and it is still going strong.
I've never had any problems with the zips, the inner lining is all still intact, and the exterior has not torn or ripped one bit. Absolutely brilliant purchase. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend

I bought one of these a year ago and it's held up really well so far to a full on year of gigging including being strapped to the back of a golf buggy at a very muddy and rainy WOMAD. Loads of handles in the right places including one on the front roughly over the bridge which proves very useful for carrying up stairs.
