    All the gigbags I see are the cheap ones for this bass. I need one that will be road/tour worthy. I know I should just get a hard case but the bass go's on the tour bus with me and not underneath. I even thought maybe a guitar bag like a mono but not sure if it would fit. Any ideas?

    I've wanted a Hofner Club bass for years, after playing one in a store and falling in love. That said, the limited controls turn me off a bit, but the real issue is more about the stability of the bridge, and it's ability to be intonated (and stay intonated). I'm not trashing the Club- I'm...
