Roscoe Gigbags?

I couldn't find any info by searching here or looking around the Roscoe site.

What bags does Roscoe use if you select the Gigbag option for a case? I have one of the Form-Fit cases and like it, but I'm curious about the gigbags.

Jeff -

We're still working on the gigbag, I'm expecting our prototype from our supplier any day now for approval.

The bag compares extremely well to the Undercover Double I personally use now.

What a coincidence!

I was only thinking the other night that I wanted to go back to using a gig bag again as often a case can be a bit cumbersome. Warwick seem to have cornered the market in the UK - any ideas for an alternative that fits please?

That's good news. I've got a bag that is similar to (or is?) an undercover single bag that my SKB fits in. I will be interested to see what the double bags are like when they come in

I'll be posting about it here, once we're "officially" committed to a gigbag.

Yes, wait for ours!

...if not, several retailers sell the Undercover bag, and I can highly recommend it, from much personal experience.

Thumbs up

Gard sold me one of those double Undercover gig bags when he was at Bass Central. It's all I use whether I'm hauling one bass or two. It's real durable with double and triple stitching in some areas, holds two basses great, has a small pocket for your tools, keys, and something like a tuner and a big pocket for a band chart book, cord, strap, etc...

If the gig bag is comperable to the Undercover gig bag, I'd get one if I didn't already have the Undercover bag.

Good going Roscoe Dudes!
