Been looking for a soft case or padded bag for taking extra stuff to shows. Looked at SKB, World Tour, Gator, Carvin.
Gimme some different brands I should be looking at.
The ideal, would be 15in x 15in x 6in deep. Zippers, external pouches, shoulder strap, standard fare. Hard foam or plastic inside the walls for structural integrity would be a plus. |

Apparently, the GSMIXL is about the right size. Let's see about prices... oooh. Hefty bite. But a great product commands a worthwhile price tag... |

I've been looking at some used ones and it might be an ideal solution for me, but I'd like to get an opinion. |

But for this pedalboard application, we wanted something with strong walls, to retain shape and keep from caving in. |
