SKB 1SKB-44RW koffer voor basgitaar en gigbag
For Dingwall owners, since the Dingwall basses are quite long, they fit a bit snugly in the case. I had to remove some of the internal foam to make it close properly. However, this doesn't concern me, as my soft case is also padded, and it was almost double-padded, which was preventing the case from closing. I feel this case would be perfect for standard-length instruments.
The design of the shell is great and well-balanced. It can stand up vertically on its own and rest unaided, and the handle is positioned for even weight distribution.
I'm a big fan of Janek Gwizdala, who has done videos about this case, and I recommend adding a piece of Velcro around the handle where the two parts of the case meet for extra security.
It survived its first trip to India, including internal flights, perfectly. There are a few marks on the case, but the bass was fine.
Overall, it’s a great piece of kit, and I’m very happy with the purchase. It was essentially this or an ENKI for me.
Also, thanks to Bax for the swift delivery, which arrived just in time for my gigs!
