Here's my issue. I've got a 1987 Platinum series Warlock with reverse pointed headstock. Love this bass a lot. It's been modded with a SD Basslines pickup. Not sure if the bridge is stock, but it's a nice hi-mass bridge. As you'll see in the pics, it's also got a custom paintjob with a decal, and was well done by the previous owner.
The gig bag that came with the bass is a BC Rich universal bass bag. The headstock ends up sticking out a bit. I can get it closed, but the zipper ends up coming unzipped constantly. I have purchased a BC Rich hard case specific for Warlock basses (bought it here on TB), thinking my problem would be solved. Well, the bass doesn't fit, and as you can see, the headstock hangs out of the case.
Has anyone here had this issue? What do I do? I'm thinking a Coffin Case is my only alternative. Can someone point me in the right direction?:help:

Coffin case , that monster is a lot like my Dean Zbass, I could only find anything that fit was pretty much the largest coffin case, and I had to remove the junk box from the top end of the case at that just to get it to fit
