Just got meself a Doubler - Woot!

Can't try it yet cos I'm waiting for a cab, but meantime, does anybody have any ideas for a cheap DIY gigbag or case for these lil beauties?

It's so light (under 3 lbs, yes!), I'm afraid I'll throw it in my gigbag and damage it.

There'd be tears :)

If you don't want to carry it in the outer pocket of your gigbag you can get one of those tool aluminium briefcases and get a nice piece of foam cutted in size to stuff it in wich you could cut the shape of the doubler to fit it. Something like this (but in the right context):

Seems the big requirement is the right thickness chunk of foam to cut. Where on earth do you buy foam? (apart from an American pub - sorry :)

A foam shop? Foam-is-us? Anne Summers Fantasy Foam store?

But really. I'll need foam for this. :rolleyes:

Surely it's worth spending a bit to get something decent to keep a £500 amp in?

How about one of [url="http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=36796"]these[/url]?

Thats exactly what i tried to explain. I think it would be the best and safer bet.

If you (or significant other) had any idea how much I've spent on kit in the last month... :)

That Maplin stuff looks good. I'll check the size. I'm willing to spend £30 posted but not £60 posted. Everything here is £10-25 dearer cos of delivery.

A camera case is a good idea too.

Maybe I'm just reducing guilt, as in: if i can save £30 on a case that means it was just fine to spend xzillion£ on the gear :rolleyes:
