I'm trying to restrain from ordering the wind but for some reason I really like that bass.

What kind of bass is that? It is kind of cool.

edit: amazing deal. I have one (I don't know which one) but although the color is kind of odd, it said it was water resistant, and I was skeptical, but after being caught in a downpour, I can tell you it actually is. I wouldn't bother with any other bag, to be honest. It's way more protective than any of my other bags.

What other bags do you have to give us a idea of what your comparing it to? I’m curious about these.
 
Here’s a side by side with a contego


Just arrived. Seems like very good quality, certainly better than the fender deluxe bag that they no longer sell that was about the same price. I'm pleased. More than adequate for the SBMM SUB RAY5 that will go in it. Thanks for the heads up, @Turock.

Some side by sides with protec contego:

I'd give the quality edge to the protec but they're not far apart. Some pros and cons for each in pockets/handles/straps/protection.

A couple fender ones. One came with my roadworn jazz bass. The other came with a used squier bass iv. They're not even in the same league. Put it this way: I feel pretty certain I could chuck my bass across the yard in this case. I couldn't drop these other cases 2 ft. to the floor and not worry about damage. This one fits snugly and has really thick padding in every direction. I've used it for almost a year, and all my basses fit in it, and the zippers still work nice, and the fabric is still like new although it has softened a bit (not as stiff as it was at first, and I wish it was, even though it doesn't seem to matter). I don't know how you can go wrong. Bargain at 100.00, I would say.
