TheGreek Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 SLOW DOWN PEOPLE!!! I met up with a fellow Bcer recently who was looking for a case for his. He was very happy with the bass, however they do NOT fit in a generic hard case. They are approx 10mm too long (basically that radiused bit on the headstock) - he'd tried a few - including an SKB molded case - still a no go. It does fit in the teardrop shaped SKB but there's a lot of movement. Bear this in mind if you order one without their case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxyFuze Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Where is the OP based? I think quite a number of small independent stores stock Revelation gear (one or two in Bristol for sure) so it would be worth visiting and trying out.

Thanks Mick, but I use a gig bag so presumably it wouldn't be a problem (I hope). Otherwise 5 minutes with a Junior hacksaw and it's sorted...

fleabag Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 (edited) Freestyle hardcase will fit A weird shaped bass like my '83 Overwater is an awkward shape to find a case for, but Wunjo sorted it. The Over is a loooooooong bass and it never fitted in either of my other cases. If it fits a vintage Overwater, it'll fit a Revvy https://www.andertons.co.uk/freestyle-hardshell-wood-case-for-electric-guitars-fcgw-elec?LGWCODE=FCGWELEC;56375;6335&gclid=Cj0KCQjwz93cBRCrARIsAEFbWsjv4XYqhNGtBgnnyIn-h_4CiazMFSsVYfN1P3e-7XuoZHsP67Im9ogaAvnQEALw_wcB Edited September 11, 2018 by fleabag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think these Revelations are equivalent, though. Maybe one or two of the Harley Bentons would make a better match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kodiakblair Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 The deed is done. Double PBXN jazz bass in sunburst/tort is on the way 🙂 Fateful excuse " I'll sell a couple to make room" along with "need to use those nectar points" was all it took. ETA sometime Thursday 👍 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
