Badass Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 (edited) I have just laid my hands on a Takamine GB72CE to replace my aging Takamine EG512c. I'm trying to find a hard case for it. Does anyone know what case it will fit into? One of these basses: [url="http://www.takamine.com/GB72CE-NAT"]http://www.takamine.com/GB72CE-NAT[/url] I've posted a wanted thread here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/312513-hard-case-for-acoustic-bass/"]http://basschat.co.u...-acoustic-bass/[/url] Edited September 27, 2017 by Badass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazzbass Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 A Warwick RokBag fits my G series, not sure the model number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badass Posted September 30, 2017 Author Share Posted September 30, 2017 I have a gig bag for it, looking for a hard case to protect it, when out and about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alyctes Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Dimensions? I could do a bit of measuring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badass Posted October 7, 2017 Author Share Posted October 7, 2017 (edited) Minimum INTERNAL dimensions would need to be: Length- 120 cm Width upper bout - 32 cm Width waist - 28 cm Width lower bout - 44 cm Depth - 14cm Thank you.

alyctes Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Okay, I had a measure of a Kinsman hard case I use. I think this will JUST fit those dimensions. The waist seems very tight, maybe too tight, and the overall length seems too long (about 127cm). Depth should JUST be OK, so long as the neck isn't too deep. Hopefully this will help.

CameronJ Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 I reckon a Protection Racket Acoustic Bass gig case will fit. I have one for my very large Tanglewood Acoustic and it fits like a glove. It's not quite a hard case but MUCH more protective than a soft gig bag. I've had it in touring vans with no issues. Also...there's one for sale on this very forum!

Badass Posted December 14, 2017 Author Share Posted December 14, 2017 Still looking for a hard case for this bass. If anyone has any other idea or a case number / serial I can order from Takamine? There must be a Takamine hard-case for this bad boy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
