Jackson GigBag Bass

I got this case because no other case would fit my Tokai Firebird guitar, except for the expensive €120,- Epiphone or €200,- Gibson hard cases which weigh 9+ kg.

This case fits it perfectly and secure, also my Fleabass fits really good.

Pro's:
- Nice and lightweight. Big plus compared to hard cases
- Fits both standard model bass guitars and Firebird guitar models
- Did not try very large basses
- Backstraps
- Although not the most comfortable, they are good enough
- Allow you to carry you other other gear with both arms

Cons:
- Balance
- Like so many cases they put the handle in the middle which is never the optimal point
- Tips over to the body side but still reasonable enough to carry by handle
- Handle is oversized faux leather that you wrap around the belts
- Because of this it sort of fold to a 0 shape in your hand which is not nice to hold
- Smaller textile handle with a bit of soft foam would have been better

All in all a great case for not that much money. Great value.

I've had this case for about 2 years now and gig approximately twice a month. It's a good case, but it has some downsides.

Pros:
+ Nice and roomy; plenty of space for extras inside, like a microphone and a DI pedal with power supply.
+ Good interior and exterior padding.
+ Relatively cheap compared to other cases; I'm not worried if it gets damaged (after all, better for the case to get damaged instead of the guitar!)

Cons:
- There's a bit too much room for the guitar and any other bits to move around inside the case. Although it's unlikely that the case will damage your guitar because of it, it will certainly exacerbate existing issues you might already have (e.g. I had issues with the strap button coming loose and during transit it would come often loose and move around the inside of the case because the guitar is not securely positioned inside).
- The top handle is not particular heavy duty and is starting to get a bit ropey after regular use
- The metal hooks for the rear backpack straps are pretty flimsy and the metal got bent and ripped away after about a year. I replaced both straps with ones that have plastic (ABS) hooks instead of metal ones and they are much better.

Materials, sturdyness and all that was A-ok as for what one might expect from this bag; fairly rigid, very comfortable - see others for good descriptions of its materials and feel.
But the one most important thing I couldn't find any mention of anywhere before ordering it, was that if it was tested with a 5-in-line full length bass, in my case a 5-string Jackenbacker (CBXNT DX). It fit nicely in there, even with a few centimeters to spare. That's about all I needed it to do.
Being a general size gigbag it leaves some room for the instrument to wiggle inside it, but I didn't expect otherwise.
