    Excellent UK-made double bass case, good condition, just shipped an extremely fine English bass to the Gage shop with absolutely no trouble. Price for a new Headcase flight case is around $3000. This is a really great case and a great deal. Selling this for $1500. I got a new bass, which was shipped with another case, so the only reason that I'm selling this at this price is that I now have 2 shipping cases in my tiny NYC apartment.
