    I'm really getting into my 51 PJ Benavente, and have decided to try gigging with it. At 48" in length it won't fit into: double Undercover, double Reunion Blues, single Reunion Blues leather, or Fbass Levy gigbags. I can cram it into the double Reunion bag, but would like to find a bag it can fit into without straining the zipper.

    Does anyone know of a manufacturer who has an extra length bag?

    i seem to remember the Mouradian bag being nice and long. I had the same problem with KSD proto J . Maybe you can contact them and ask, sorry , I have no contact info...

    I had no problem getting my 35" Dean into a Levy's canvas bag. Is the Benavente a 34" or 35" bass?

    The '51 Benavente is 34" scale, but with the 5 in line tuners, it measures 48" in length.

    I can tell you that a Fender double bag will fit my Gibson TBird. Though not on par with an Undercover it's still a decent enough bag.
