The Music Store Gig-Bag Deluxe (X-Shape Guitar) is a protective Gig-Bag made from water/tear resistant nylon, and a layer of 20mm foam padding that protects from drops and bumps. The robust straps ensure you get a secure and comfortable grip. You also have the option to wear the case on your back with the included backpack straps. The 2x large front pockets provide ample space for cables, small effects pedals, song books and other accessories.
The main features of the Music Store Gig-Bag Deluxe (X-Shape Guitar) include:
I was a little skeptical when I first saw the pictures of this gig bag. I thought it wouldn't fit my ESP Explorer because it looks like there isn't enough space for the lower horn of the guitar. Fortunately I was wrong and my guitar fits perfectly. Gig bag is much better then I expected. Well padded and so sturdy it can even stand vertically on it's own. Handle is also padded and wrapped with some kind of faux leather, but very comfortable and nice to the touch. Two pockets for accessories are a great bonus!
I own a couple of regular gig bags in the similar price range, and this one looks and feels at least five times more expensive than the other ones.
My only complaint is the zipper, it gets a little stuck here and there when opening and closing, but I think it will work itself out over time.
All in all, I bought this one as a fit/quality test, but now I'm definitely thinking of buying two more for my other guitars. If only the shipping to my country is not expensive like this...
I bought this as a solution to moving around my Gibson Firebird from my home to the studio, nothing flashy, just needed something I could throw on my back.
The bag is perfect for short journeys, well built too; but would recommend buying a hard case if you needed something for touring or moving around in vehicles with other gear.
