I just came across this message on the Mooradian website:
Dear Valued Customers,
It is with a heavy heart that I notify you of the closing of the Mooradian Cover Company as of December 31, 2019. For over 35 years we have taken great pride in protecting your instruments with our hand-made, quality covers.
We are in the process of completing existing generic orders for our Dealers and suggest contacting them for all generic product inquiries. We will continue taking custom inquiries on a case-by-case basis. Please direct all custom requests to Emily Hoffman at [email protected]
Thank you for your loyalty to the Mooradian Brand.
Sincerely,
Peter Hoffman/Owner
Too bad. They made a good product. I had one of their double electric bass gig bags for 20-something years, and it looked brand-spanking new when I finally sold it.
Now, admittedly, I sold mine because it did not have the same level of protection nor comprehensive feature set as more modern gig bags (e.g., Mono, ProTec, Reunion Blues, etc.) I wonder if that's what killed off the Mooradian business?
I hope my brethren on the double bass side have an alternate source for doghouse cases/covers, because I think every single one I've seen in the wild was a Mooradian.
RIP
