Thunderfunk 550 Users-what rack bags do you use??
- Thread starter Bassossorus
- Start date
I'm using a protec 2 space rack bag. It's cool and all, but I'd definitely be open to a lighter one if there's one around that provides as good protection
I am using a 3 space Gator bag for my Aguilar AG-500. Nice bag and a fairly cheap $65. Plus it only weighs like 7 or 8 lbs.

Gator 3 space rack with Korg DTR1 tuner. I like it lots. Sturdy, small, light, rooms ofr all the cords and a power strip too...
head thee to a camera store, and look thru their selection of camera bags. found a great one that fits perfectly my Epifani UL502 head, and heck, has plenty of pockets to store stuff.

I had for a while my TF550 into a Protec 2U rack bag. Great bag, nothing to say, but one day I ask myself about the opportunity to buy a 15 lbs. amp and then store it into a bag augmenting weight and dimensions. So I decided to go "naked"! 
One day I went to a store and found one of those professional CD case used by DJ's: it's made out of an (to me) unknown material, very light, something like "foam" ...sorry, I really can't explain it better. Its interior was filled by sheets containing the CDs: I cut 'em all out and all that remained was the "shell" where the Thunderfunk PERFECTLY fitted!!! It's like a a kinda "TF foamish glove"!!!
Of course I know that a rack bag offers more protection so one should better consider also the use (and the abuse) that he usually makes of the gear he carries around but I think that a similar solution offers a good protection from scratches and small/medium hits.

I carry mine in a aluminum hardcase and remove it as needed.
$25 at Lowes. Has a thin layer of foam on top and the feet sit on a rubberized foam layer.

I use a 3 space Protec soft case that also houses my wireless.
I think it's great. Everything stays hooked up.
I plug in the speaker cable and the power cord and I'm done.

these look like the same place.
I got mine through wwbw with no problems at all.
I'm still happy with the case.
