| I was very happy with a bag we sold for a long time but always thought it would be nice to have a very special, high-quality bag, one that I could truly call my own. You'll find that this bag reflects some of my favorite features of the KIII bag that I used and sold for so long, but adds a few touches I liked. Here's the result - a roomy (click here for internal dimensions), well-padded, special case at a great price! |

If you've been to my site before, you know that one of my most important criteria for a bass bag, aside from the obvious protection and price, is how easy it is to get on and off. I don't feel like having a wrestling match with a bag with one hand while trying to keep the bass steady with the other. These bags have zippers on both sides of the bag -- one that goes from the endpin to within a few inches of the top, and the other that just about opens to the top of the lower bout of the bass. As you see from the photo, this bag opens w-i-d-e, ready to swallow your bass without the aggravation other cases have caused me in the past. My old Kay bass is inside the case in the multi-view photo to the left - it fits it like a glove! Click on the image (detailed diagram) below to see detailed measurements of the case.
 Features:
- FIVE double stitched handles for easy maneuvering, carrying and transporting - a heavily reinforced double suitcase style on the side for both vertical and horizontal carrying, plus an adjustable length lower bout handle so you can set it for your reach length. Plus, this case adds a trio of what I like to call "wrangling" handles; one down near the endpin, a vertical grab type on the side and one up above the front pocket - these handles give you more handholds when you're trying to maneuver your bass into a small car or through a doorway. The latest version of the case adds a second suitcase-style handle on the other side.
- Monster sized, self-healing zippers on both sides and all pockets. Smooth, luggage grade zippers provide long and trouble-free service.
- "No stress" zipper stops at the end pin avoids "zipper-strip" and ensures a long life. Plenty of room for your endpin to support the instrument in transit, and it is accessible if you use a bass wheel.
- Large padded bridge protector with our International BASS logo.
- One bow pocket on the front.
 The bow pocket has been lengthened to 31 inches to accommodate longer bows.
- Three accessory compartments on the back, including a string package-sized at the top of the headstock, and one on the front in the traditional position.
- A pair of METAL D-rings (one on each side, near the upper bout) to help secure or carry the instrument. (See detail photos for closeups of the rings). Some owners have attached straps of their own to these anchor points (not included).
- Rich lining with finished seams -- no rough edges to rub your bass the wrong way.
- Extra thick, high density, 20mm two-stage foam padding that is nicely firm, not floppy, and sealed within the fabric of the case; the two complementary foam layers consist of a 15mm "cushy" foam for soft protection and a 5mm "stiff" layer to provide body and rigidity.
- Durable Cordura style, heavy duty material outer shell, not that lightweight nylon fabric - and it's in a very tasteful hunter green, adding a touch of class and individuality over the far more common black or brown.
 Custom-embroidered "Bass" emblem - when the inevitable comedian sees you walking with the bass and says "gee, what a big violin!" you can point to it a give them the appropriate look of disdain.  Click on the image at right for a close-up. You'll also receive a BASS Oval sticker (see mention in left column) with your order!

Of all of the ones I've used, the Ingles has a specific feature that makes it more flexible - and well-suited for taller bassists and others who extend their endpins more than six inches: the cradle arms are adjustable. The Ingles folks have taken the MBS design and enhanced it. If you have an extraordinarly long endpin, please check out this information to ensure that your bass will fit.
 The Ingles stand includes an extended arm with a hook for hanging your bow. All contact surfaces are covered with a protective foam type of material. As solid as it is, the stand still folds flat and to a reasonably compact size, as the photos show. This is no wimpy plastic stand -- it is of all metal construction, except for the padding and vinyl tips, and weighs 8.2 pounds.

Bob,
I received last month a fine bow, Ingles stand, and Gollihur bag. All excellent products. The bow sounds wonderful, the bag is very nice, and the stand works well. In fact, I really appreciate your comments on your web page comparing the Ingles to the MBS. I liked the rigidity of the MBS, but it is fantastic to grab it out of the stand and play (my endpin is extended about 9"). This is invaluable at a gig which requires me to switch between electric and upright quickly.

#1- You are the ONLY person on the WORLD that has e-mailed me back within
minutes. I can't get an answer that quick by sticking my head out the window
and yelling.
#2- All the help was OUTSTANDING! I'm glad someone still helps goofy people,
of which I am one.
#3- The bag is SUPER! I have seen sleeping bags not nearly as nice as this
and it is a STEAL for the money. I still can't believe it. And it got here
so fast! WOW!
#4- From now on I will deal exclusively with you and try and forget there
are other shops out there. Duh- forgetting, forgetting--.
Thanks loads Mark. You were a really big help... You have gained an
ally and a loyal customer.

Gollihur Music is THE BEST on the internet! I have a great friend who owns a local music store where I buy all my stuff (for guitars and sound systems). He couldn't get me a deal like Gollihur's Ingles bass stand. I ordered it Sunday and found it on my porch Wednesday afternoon!!! INCREDIBLY FAST SHIPPING. Bob also talked with us and gave restoration advice when we found our old 1956 Kay bass sitting unused in a high school band room. It is incredible and deserves a sturdy bass stand. I highly recommend the Ingles stand and Gollihur Music.

I bought a Gollihur Bass bag, Ingles stand, and a set of bridge adjuster wheels. You have provided the best online shopping experience I've ever had. The Gollihur bag is great!!! It is the easiest I've ever used... it's easy to load the bass in my little truck with all of the extra handles and I use the little "D" rings and a couple of straps to hold it in place. Putting the bass in and out of the bag is super-convenient as well. The Ingles stand is like a giant super-strong guitar stand. I've never used this type of stand before, but it holds my bass very well and is built like a tank. It folds away nicely and sets-up easily. The wide range of adjustments means lots of "trying" to get it to fit the first time, so marking the adjustments with a Sharpie will ease set-up time. Thank you for your research in finding useful products for bassists and I will continue to order from your company exclusively. Expect an order for some pickups and another bag for my new ES-9...
