Members Kap'n Posted February 2, 2010 Members Share Posted February 2, 2010 Tough Traveler makes awesome gig bags, for those so inclined. Expensive, but worth it. Made in the USA. www.toughtraveler.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Belva Posted February 2, 2010 Members Share Posted February 2, 2010 My Gator LP polyfoam case has shoulder straps. I believe most of their polyfoam cases do. Is this a strap or the backpack style dual straps? Those can be handy if, as mentioned, you want to get into the gig in one trip. I also am considering a dual bag if this gigging thing continues. But it's quickly getting old. I need a weekend break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ferdinandstrat Posted February 2, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 2, 2010 depnds on the guitar too. I'd throw my strat into a gig bag without worry but if it were a hollow or semi hollow, I'd be a lot more comfortable with a HSC. Well, think a Telecaster combined with a PRS, with an angled(scarf jointed) headstock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members adastra87 Posted February 9, 2010 Members Share Posted February 9, 2010 I'd always go for hardshells, I use 'em all the time. But I have a few high end padded gig bags because they can be convenient for when you're takin' the guitar a couple of miles away to a buddies house or to band practice.

HSCs for storage and traveling and a nice gig bag or two around for short trips. For me a HSC is a must and the gig bag is a nice convenience now and then.

Members Drupoet Posted July 2, 2016 Members Share Posted July 2, 2016 I own two Hiscox Cases: one Acoustic Guitar Case/Dreadnght Ivory Shell -Pro II for my 1955 Gibson C&W and another Pro II for my Gibson ES-335 Nashville Custom Shop 63 Block Reissue. Hiscox makes great sturdy & very light cases. The Pro II is less money then the Lifeflite Artist & they meet my needs & then some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
