Cover for GK MBe? Gallien Krueger MBe 112

I'm looking for a cover for this combo amp.

Anybody have any clues?

Thanks,
Evan

If you're just looking for a cover, call Larry LeCover:

Lecover

I got an unpadded one in addition to the bag. You can also get a padded cover. In fact, Larry sells custom covers for nearly any amp or cab.

Note that the fine print says "Free shipping on orders over $99.99," and that the item just "qualifies" for free shipping in case the order gets up to that $100 minimum.

This looks like a good fit: Perfect backpack for GK MBE or MBS Campmor has it for a little less.

Pick up the GK bag referenced above from RMC audio. Their prices on GK stuff are hard to beat, I have dealt with them on several occasions. I have had that particular bag for my 200mb combo for 20 years and its still going strong.

Not to confuse things but I've heard that case is a little awkward to carry. I have a Mooradian case and it is awesome. Very well balanced, easy to carry and totally bulletproof.

Not sure how much they cost. I got mine with a used amp that I have since replaced.

I'd agree about the awkwardness. The GK bag would definitely benefit from some carrying handles. Otherwise, you're required to only carry it on the shoulder.

Since the shoulder strap on the GK bag is useless and it really needs a carrying handle, I just tied a knot in one end of the shoulder strap to make it a little shorter and use it as a carrying handle. Works for me.

The Mooradian bag for the MB150 is nice, but costs about $150. The GK bag gets the job done for a lot less money.

And perhaps a sturdier, wider, more adjustable strap from another bag would do the job, too? The strap the GK bag comes with can't be made quite short enough.
