franzbassist Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) In shopping for a decent quality gig bag to house a new bass, I came across this new to me model from Protection Racket - the Gig Case. And then a friend offered me a Mono Vertigo, which is my favourite bag of all time, so of course I had to buy it. This is brand new, never out of the house, and surplus to requirements It's light, slimline, and well padded with high density 10mm foam on the front and back, but lacks the internal frame its more expensive cousins have. The entire headstock area inside is lined with a hard wearing "Racketex" material, as is the bridge area, while the rest of the bag is lined with "Velvetex", which is a soft but durable brushed cotton. The neck is cradled in a large, movable, firm neck cushion that keeps angled headstocks off the back of the bag. Like the Mono Vertigo, it is a top loader. It has a strong and comfortable handle. Decent protection on the outside of the base, and inside the case there is a thick bolster to cushion the bottom of the bass: no chance of damaging your end strap pin if you drop it. For £50 RRP, if you want something lightweight and sleek, I think this is hard to beat. I'd like £40 posted.
