Gig bag for accesories, NOT a backpack

[bdplaid]

What do you guys use as an accessories gig bag that's NOT a backpack?

 

[Jeff Scott]

Besides the custom bag Tuki Covers made for me many years ago (originally for my Walter Woods Super amp), camera bags work a treat.

I use a Mono DJ bag. Not cheap, but it matches my gig bag and makes me look much more professional than I am.

That's what I have and don't want. Can never get it to stop falling over.

I have one bag that WILL NOT STAND UP! Now, it holds rocks that will send it to the bottom of the sea as soon as I am on a ferry and unobserved. Life is too hectic to put up lazy gear!

Range bags. Got one from Wally World that holds my tools now, and a SigSauer bag that's bigger and holds a ton of cords, cables, etc. etc. etc.

I was looking at one of those the other day.

I inherited a pair of Anvil medium-duty road cases from a corporate Audio-Video Rental & Staging company (cases were originally designed to hold an industrial VCR) that have served me well as random gack cases for all my sundry musical equipment going to gigs...pedals, cables, tuners, accessories, etc.
I also have several briefcases -- two hard-sided, at least a half dozen soft-sided -- that get used regularly.
And I have a pair of soft-sided cases that were originally for transporting arcane video interfaces that got used with old-school overhead projectors -- that get used if I have to bring a single unit in the 19" rackmount form-factor that's not already bolted into a rack.

In short: Mostly repurposed A/V cases/bags.

Maybe I carry too much stuff but, I use a rolling toolbox. It has 3 stacking boxes. I can mix and match, pare it down for practices or load everything and have spares for everybody.

Depends on what I'm carrying. I have an old PRS accessory bag that's great for odds and ends. I have a MONO Guitar Tic bag that's good for small items. For bigger stuff, I just use a duffle bag.

 

[Sascha Erni]

I use a Gator GT-2412 gig bag. It's originally built for pedalboards (and that's what it houses most prominently), but with additional dividers and all the little pouches and compartments I now carry everything in it from clip-on tuner to strings to mic stand clips, cables, spare batteries, toolkit etc.. I've had it for 1.5 years now and it still works and looks fine, with no tears or the like, even though I carry a lot of weight in it each week.

 

[Gluvhand]

I use a Timbuk2 messenger bag for my gigs. Holds my tools, spare power strip, gaffer and duct tape, various power cords, and some other miscellany. Had it almost 20 years.

This is the toughest accessory bag I have found.

I put my XR-18 in here, along with a pile of other stuff.

Great pockets inside to keep organized too.

Back in the day, I used a gym style duffle bag. Cables, pedals in the middle section, plus other heavier items. Strings, short cables the end. Mic, first aid, tools up front. It worked for years.
Now, I'm carrying less, asking the same question. I'm looking for a one trip load in, light weight. I bought a big Gator two bass gig bag which almost eliminates the extra bag. Almost. It depends on which head I take.
For smaller gigs, the Gnome, cables, iPad go in the bass gig bag.
For larger gig, the Tonehammer 500 goes in a duffle style 18 year old diaper bag that is falling apart.

I recently ran across a youtub video of how to make padded dividers. I think I'm going to try it.

Right now I want one of these. They are a bit pricey at ~$220, but sure seem to do it all and hold a lot.

I use my Reunion Blues double gig bag to carry a microphone stand and other large objects. Bass in one compartment, gear in the other.
