How long IS a T-Bird?!

[Saarik]

I'm looking for a case in the UK for me new T-Bird, and found TONS of cases all measuring 120cm - which I'm pretty sure is just too short.

I've searched high and low for the actual total length of a T-Bird Pro IV but to no avail!

Could anyone enlighten me?

If you're looking for a case, you must have the bass right? Why don't you just measure it yourself?

Not on length, but I had one I just sold last month. You might want to look for a custom molded on for the T-Bird. I got mine from Musicians Friend (USA). It was $80-$85(US) Not sure if this helps, but the T-Bird specific case id nice for that body style.

50 1/2" for '76 Gibson

50.5 inches = 128.27 centimeters for those of us on the proper system Saarik haha. So yes, 120cm will come up short. You'll never get a Ford inside of that case.

i use an accoustic bass case for my epi bird and when i carry my buzzard without the HUGE case it has

The epiphone bass case would be best choice imo. Alternately if gigbag is all you afford. They will also fit the BC Rich deluxe bass gig bag. Which while very good isnt as protective as a hard case.

+1 on the Epi case. I bought one for my Pro IV and it fits just fine

 

[Saarik]

Cheers everyone! Epi hard case it is I suppose

It depends, when Entwistle was playing one, it looked to be about 5ft long.
