Bongo size for soft cases

[AlexBongoCrazy]

Just ordered my new bongo and now need a soft case. I've seen a good Ritter case which is 124 cm in length and the bongo is 121 cm. Would it fit? If not any other soft cases that I could buy in europe?

I've just bought a Protec case for my 5 string Bongo. It's a bit of a squeeze, but it goes in OK. Thomann have a good price for them.

I have one made by Guitar Research that my bongo 5 fits in. My generic gigbag is about an inch short.

The Musicman gig bags fit perfect but if you want something heavy duty the INCASE is great but heavy.

Musicman gig bags? where can I get one
I'm already getting a hard case with my Bongo but the music school that I've got a place in doesn't let students carry hard cases around the school and obviously i'm looking for a case I can get in europe (living in france) and that has pretty good protection.

can't wait for my bongo 5 HS LTD 2007 Blue dawn to arrive from the US

Fits perfect in my Mono single and double bags...

 

[AlexBongoCrazy]

thanks, my choice is between the Mono single and the iGig


The bongo arrives tomorrow

 

[AlexBongoCrazy]

does the mono offer enough protection?

I have the Mono for one bass. It offers more protection than any other soft gig bag I have come across.

Having said that, the best protection is provided by the original hardcase.

Mono is the best gig bag I've come across. I have my hardcases all packed away now. I dropped my double bag once with my Bongo and SR5 in there and they didn't even go out of tune.

I know a guy who had to check is custom bass worth around $4k while flying from Oz to USA in a Mono bag and came out the other end exactly as it left.

 

[AlexBongoCrazy]

Thanks again
I guess i'm going with the mono because although I have an amazing hardcase my music school doesn't let us have hardcases plus they aren't very practical to carry round everywhere.

I have an iGig and it's a very good gig bag but it's heavy without anything in it. Then add a bass and stuff all those pockets and it gets really heavy.

I've heard nothing but good about the Mono cases.

Roadrunner makes a nice padded gig bag. Reasonably priced too.

Does the Bongo 5 fit ok in a the super lightweight/super protective Mono single case?
