Case for a G&L Fallout SS Bass

#2
I think the fallout is relatively longer than the mustang. The bridge is further forward so the neck ends up relatively longer for the same scale length. I have my done side by side comparison of the two though. Fallout may need a case designed for a medium scale?

Bizump.

The Reverend Watt Bass Case did not work with my Fullerton Fallout. So your mileage may vary.

It's too bad as well because that case is crazy beautiful.

Glad I didn't pursue this. Do you have the Watt Bass as well? I'm sure not too long from now case makers will start offering short scale options, although Fallout Bass is a special case because it is almost as big as regular 34" bass.

I don't, but I should be able to return it. I looked at the other options as well, but the Large case is 2"' wider and 3" too long. Their long scale case seems fine width wise, but it's 6" longer than the bass.

I read somewhere that the case for Epiphone Embassy PRO Bass fits the Fallout Bass. Haven't tried yet and the person who mentioned about it has since sold the bass, so no images to prove this :roflmao: I am currently using the Gator Transit series padded gig bag, there are some space at the headstock but they have additional detachable padding there that you can move around. I put my strap in there to serve as additional padding. Works well, but would be great if G&L makes the case for it.

They should. I see why they didn't and all, due to the unique shape. Still though, especially given the price of the American made Fullerton models and how competitors do, they should make a case.

A part of me was considering trying the Reverend Bass Case since it's a similar width, but it's also 6" longer than the Fallout.
