Bow Case

I have a bow case already, but it is not good at all.

I need something of quality that can hold 2 bows, one German and one French.

I have a double bow case from from Gollihur Music that I'm happy with. It's on the expensive side but built solid.

I actually just ordered one of those from Bob just a few days ago, though it was the single bow version. I opted for a black cordura covering with a navy blue velvet interior. I was getting pretty tired of not of having a case to store my bow in for those 'bow only' situations when you're actually using the orchestra's bass instead of your own. I'll let you know how things go but so far I've heard they're one of the best and the most reasonably priced in the market.

I have what looks to be that same case, and its held up well for many years. The only downside is its pretty bulky and is a tight fit in most bass bags, and a no-go in many. I doubt the double would fit in any non-custom pocket.

Mine just arrive yesterday from Bob G. and I'm really loving it! Its a lot slimmer/slicker in reality as compared to what is seen in the picture. Its extremely lightweight and looks great! Only downside was that I didn't get the velvet blue that I wanted . No matter, I bet this will serve me for a long long time.

These cases are Concord Cases (same company that makes the Eminence and the Christopher basses). They also offer a much more slender case for a single bow, that fits the bow pocket of the double bass bag.
