The bad news is that you have to find a gig bag that will fit a Bongo 6.

The good news is that you live in Hong Kong and own a Bongo 6.

As per their website the 515 model of the iGig line is 48" long compared to the 47.75" of the Bongo 6

Yeah we know, half of your 10 posts have been about how you can't have a left handed Bongo 6. We get it.

iGig is the only choice???
cuz the bag itself is quite heavy

You take the Bongo out of the bag when you play it...

You could always find a better option by yourself.

I had one of these Roadrunner Cruizer bags and I'm sorry to report that it is a major disappointment. Many low end gig bags want to wow you with pockets and compartments but the bottom line for a gig bag is protection for a nice bass. The Cruizer has decent padding but no neck nor endpin support. The detachable backpack is useless. The way it is zipped to the gig bag is flimsy so if you load the backpack up the attaching zipper will split. Eventually the bag won't attach to the zipper anymore.

I went ahead and sprung for Incase soft case/gig bags for my precious MMs. @ about $200 each they are not cheap but considering for example, that there is only one Dargie Bongo 4HP out there and it is mine, then $200 seems a fair price to pay. There are also other superior soft/case gig bags in the market for less money than the Incase like the Pro-Tec Contego, the Mono M80 and the Sadowsky Porta Bag. Of course Reunion Blues and Cronkhite are there for the well heeled as well.

Thanx for the great infos! Since iGig is out of stock for the 515 right now, Im thinking about the Incase for my Bongo5, do you think it will fit? This feet 'n inches thing is givin' me itches...

The dimensions of the Bongo 5 and the Incase bag are both listed on their respective websites IIRC.

You'll like the Incase gig bag.
