It fits my DB, stands, gear bag & SWR WM12 in it with no problem. And they're definitely safe. I got into an accident too, last summer. Somebody turned left in front of me & I t-boned him. His insurance had to dish out $4k to fix the front-end of my car, and none of the instruments & equipment was damaged, and neither me or the guitarist riding with me got a scratch. Fuel efficient & good for camping too. Damn fine cars.

I have hauled everything from PA gear/amps and electric basses to a full sized washing machine. I bought my 07 Cruiser as a program vehicle with about 13K miles and paid 5 grand less than a brand new one. |

Def good choices for any bassist.

I have a good case and I try to let my bass rest in the case for awhile before opening. If you think about it, doesn't the air conditioning in a car create potential problems as well, i.e. very dry air?

I should probably invest in an air tight climate controled flight case and easy my mind haha
