For the Super series I can't recommend the SKB Pro precision/jazz case enough. It fits absolutely perfectly and is of fantastic quality.

I got one of these for my 5 string NG-2 and it works well.

A little Z3 therapy!!!
Oh, cool! That's the one I use for both of my Supers. I wasn't sure if it fit the AB series as well. It's such a nice case.

I'll take a picture later. I think it's a pretty nice fit for a 3rd party case.
When I had my AB I got a Gator case. It was a decent fit, but these SKB's are as good as a custom fit for the Supers.
I have heard that any standard bass case will fit.
We'll, I can tell you that the Gator case I had for my AB actually did not fit my Super PJ.
aw heck. I was interested in getting a fairly cheap case for my NG2 and was told it'd fit in a standard-sized bass case.

L&M (Canadian GC) stocks a cheap brand of cases, I cannot remember the brand off hand. I don't think a Dingwall fits in a standard case, I've never tried, but they have slightly larger ones which should hold a Dingwall no problem. I would think GC would have something similar.
Yeah I've heard Combustions will fit in pretty much any standard bass case, I'll do a little more research. Mine shipped with a gig bag but both straps have ripped off and the zipper is broken, so I'm in the market for something a bit more robust.

What kind of gig bag does a Chinese Dingwall ship with? The Dingwall bags I have are both top-shelf Levy's gig bags. They are both very high quality and I would definitely grab one again if I needed a good gig bag.
I bought mine from Bass Northwest (RIP) which sent it to me in a Protec gig bag. I do not believe that the Combustion models come with gig bags standard.
Thank you but I am looking for a case as we are about to start playing more shows, which means more tossing stuff into the van, which means hard case. Thank you though!
I hear ya! I'm a hard case fan. I tried to like the Levys soft case, but I just prefer a rectangle that will just sit safely in the corner while I set stuff up.I bought mine from Bass Northwest (RIP) which sent it to me in a Protec gig bag.

I also have this one:

The ABs fit in it, but it's not a snug fit - I had to make some foam pieces act as surrounds to the bass so it wouldn't move as much in the case. I stopped using it just because it's a fair amount more bulky than the SKB I linked previously. I still have it and use it for home storage though - often the blue AB is in it.

Even though the extra long scale Dingwalls would seem like they would need a larger case, they are not longer overall to a "standard" bass.
A buddy of mine has a standard case like this one for his Combustion and it fits well:

I've never used a hard case with my dingwalls. I could see the need if I toured but for my life the bags work great. My basses ride in the cab with me. Never in the box. An additional factor for me is the colder winter weather and with that I won't allow it to travel in an unheated area so a gig bag actually works better as it take less space and is more flexible.
Has anyone tried a groovegear gig blade?
