I've been looking for a new case for a while, one with truly professional features. While the Gollihur Bags are great cases for the money, some of my customers who are gigging more frequently have asked for a bag with heavier padding and backpack straps. I'm happy to announce that I've found such a bag, and it still won't break the bank!
 
This new bag has dense, lined padding that is approximately 1¼" thick. How dense? In the pictures on this page, the bag is standing on its own with no instrument inside it! This is no floppy bag. Internally, the padding extends over the zippers to protect your instrument's finish from being scratched by the heavy-duty zippers.
NOW ALSO AVAILABLE IN BLACK!

The seven carrying and "wrangling" handles have some serious stitching, and use reinforced leather tabs for rugged reliability -- the photos tell the tale. Many of the handles have a soft vinyl wrap for comfort, and the handles are in sensible, useful locations for carrying the bag - as well as maneuvering it through a doorway or into your car.
|

Another useful feature: wheels!
The case has a pair of durable 1.5 inch luggage-style wheels at the bottom of the back. They're mounted to a sturdy but lightweight internal plate to provide structure. Also note the cinch-straps at the bottom of the case; these allow you to tighten the bag to provide a more secure fit for your instrument. There is also a cinch-strap around the base of the neck to keep the neck from moving around inside the case.
This deluxe case also has plenty of skid-patches at points where the bag might contact the ground; these provide additional impact protection to your bass, as well as protect the fabric of the case from premature wear.
Pockets? This case has plenty! On the front, an extra-large pleated bow pocket has room for many hard and soft bow cases (unfortunately ours is a little too big) and there's also an expandable accessory pocket for rosin, tuner, pickup and preamp, or other small "bassic" items. On the back, the large pair of flat pockets are great for music, lesson material, and more. And the back pockets have protective flaps over the zippers to protect your back when carrying the bass...
Oh, did I forget to mention? This bag has BACKPACK STRAPS, a feature that I have often been asked about! They're adjustable, well-padded, and have a harness across the front to keep them from slipping off your shoulders. And like the handles, they're reinforced and heavily stiched.
Will it fit your bass??? Click Here, or on the image below, "...for case dimensions" and compare the numbers to your instrument.

Here is what some of our customers think about this product:

I received my black pro bag case and Bass Max pickup the other day.
All I can say is WOW! That case is so nice...I was about to spend hundreds more for a competitor's case of comparable value. For the price, nothing comes close. What a great case. Lots of padding inside and good reinforcement on the outside in all the right places, several handles and the backpack strap is great. It fits my Juzek perfectly. The wheels are real bonus!
Now, about the Bass Max...I can't believe how great it sounds with my Juzek, running through my Ampeg SVT6 Pro!!! Just awesome. Great pizz sound, with a real natural tone, and just enough string sound, and it sounds fabulous with the bow (using Piastrasso Obligatto's). I am running it directly into the amp...I have a Sadowsky outboard pre-amp, but have not even tried using it with the Bass Max because it sounds so great directly into the Ampeg!! It is literally a quantum step up from my older Fishman BP-100. I can't believed I waited this long to get the Bass Max.
Thank You!

I received the bag yesterday, 48 hours following my order! Wow! What a fast and efficient service! Also, the bag is great! It fits my brand new Slap King from King Double bass like a glove!
Thank you very for supporting the upright bass players community!

BTW: Having used your professional bass case for several months now (including some good "mileage" on the weels!) I can report that it is absolutely excellent value for money, and showing no signs of wear and tear. Cases of this quality go for twice the price (or more) in this part of the world. I've shown the case to a couple of bass teachers I know, and I think there will be more customers coming your way from Switzerland.

Hi guys,
We received the pro bag today. We LOVE it; it's absolutely perfect to protect Acadia's bass in all its travels. It is totally worth the extra money and it fits great.
Thanks!

Well guys we just recieved our first order, the professional double bass bag. We ordered it for our son, as an xmas gift, to replace his ragged out original. we were a bit nervous about ordering without him seeing it, and not knowing if we would get it in time. We ordered on sat. it arrived tuesday. Wow so far we could not be happier with the service or the product. This case is awesome! The padding, all the handles, the craftsmanship plus wheels... we are sure our son, who is in college (music performance and education), is going to love this case. Once again its been a pleasure doing business with yall, i'm sure its the first of many..

I recently made two recordings, one live with a simple stereo mic in the front of the stage, and one in a studio. In the live recording I used my Double Big Twin and Acoustic Image Coda; in the studio, my mix was primarily acoustic. What surprised me was that my live sound with the Double Big Twin and the Coda was almost as good as my acoustic sound in the studio! I also wanted to let you know how happy I am with the Professional 3/4 size Double Bass Bag. I feel so much more secure carrying The Bass around; I don't fear the occasional interactions with walls etc. And all those handles make carrying, loading and unloading a snap, despite the weight. Thanks!

Just a note to say how pleased I am with the purchase of your professional bag for my double bass. The service and delivery were top notch and the bag itself is worth it just for the wheels but I feel better about traveling with it now that I have some padding to keep it safe and some pockets to keep essentials close.
