Turned this up with a quick Google search;

2 basses in one flight case?

[trunkshope6]

ive only seen gig bags for that.

Keyboard case.. 2 gig bagged basses inside.

Has anyone ever seen the fender case that was also a stand? It was chrome colored and held three and five basses upright in an enclosed stand that was also the case!

I owned a case like this.. was a bear to move.. very cumbersome.

When I want airlines to give me special attention, I tape 2 basses together in hardshell cases.. this is cumbersome enough that it gets hand - moved.

5 was a dog.

thanks for the links. ive seen some of that stuff but only one was something id be interested in and it happens to be about 600 bucks lol. any one else have any recomendations? i saw a pic floating around on here somewhere and in the pic was a studio setup with a white svt cab and a white svt vr head. if that helps lol if i could find the pic i could find the user and shoot him a pm but i cant find the pic for the life of me.

I remember seeing in the back of a BP mag, a flight case that would hold three basses stacked upright. And that it would tilt back and roll instead of carrying it.

Hi.

The only "feasible" option for a new one would be DIY if $600 is too much for You.

A second hand KBD case or a mixing console case would be the next logical step, not cheap though. The cheapest/easiest to find might be a standard utility case for stands, lights, cables etc. Those come in all sizes and dimensions, every ATA case manufacturer makes them.

Have You given a single thought to the weight?

A "normal" bass is about 5Kg, a plywood ATA case for a bass 15Kg, a composite ATA perhaps 10Kg. That's at least 20 Kg You'd be hauling around, most likely closer to 30Kg.

Yeah, if $600 is too steep for the OP you're SOL. But call up Anvil or Calzone or Hybrid and ask them for a quote, they've all done it before and it's always been a custom case.

And I'm fairly certain it's always been well over $600. My Anvil ATA-series flight case was almost $600 for a single instrument!

i know twin gig bags, no hard cases though. maybe you could get something custom made but then i wont be sure how sturdy it is, thus defeating the purpose of a hardcase

Sorry for the delay on pics. I have a double hard case for 2 electric basses that works well. I have fit 2 35" laklands in it with room to spare. I will post pics tonight.

I have one. It's awesome, but discontinued. Apparently, the company that made them for Fender stole the idea from another company, and were issued a cease and desist .
