Marty Forrer Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Just thought I'd put this out there. I have two BF One10 cabs and these will likely be the last cabs I ever buy. So, I invested in a pair of BF covers for them. Gotta say, they are so well made, so well padded and fit so well, they are well worth the 50 pounds each. I could have got some made for cheaper, but I'm glad I went with these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I bought two Roqsolid ones for the cabs that I bought, they're great. I then bought another Barefaced (used) that came wit a Roqsolid cover and it's nowhere near as good. Odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machinehead Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 My Barefaced branded (Roqsolid) cover is well made and gives good protection to my BB2 but... it's about an inch too short! How that happened I have no idea? Frank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FinnDave Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Roqsolid made me a cover for my Super Twin, but as mine was the first cab off the line, the cover had the cutouts for the handles in the wrong place. Rectified free of charge very quickly by Roqsolid, and the cover has now seen over 3 years service and is in fine shape (as is the cab!).

Have you switched for the whole range? I've always gone to Roqsolid for the various cabs and combos I've owned as they've been alright. The cover for my old MarkBass CMD121P combo was slightly long (maybe they gave me the extra inch that they removed from the BB2 earlier ) but I had no issues. I always went for their thicker grade, but something a bit more solid would not be a bad idea so that's good to know. I bought a Two10 a few months ago and ordered a cover from Roqsolid instead of directly from you because I thought they were the same and I wanted a couple of extras (like covering the bottom and fastened with velcro, as I sometimes end up carrying several things with a hand-truck and it protects the bottom from damage)... I'll remember this for next time 'though, as I'm pretty sure I'll get another Two10 later in the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

largo Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I have a pair of One10 cabs & went with the Roqsolid Cajon bags. Not a perfect fit, but they protect all sides of the One10 cabs and have a zip & carry handles. Every time I carry the cabs, I hear shouts of "pizza delivery"...

acidbass Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Hot Covers are much more robust than Roqsolid IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamster Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 My first Big Twin II cover was bought from Roqsolid. It lasted about a year and the stitching gave way and the lining fell apart from the outer cover. I only play around 40 gigs a year. The handle cut-outs were slightly off too. I bought another one from Roqsolid, the handle cut-outs were better, the cover seemed better made but the cover is approx 1.5" too long so the bottom edge drags as the cab is tilted on its castors and pulled along. I don't see a Hot Covers product listed for Barefaced? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
