Question for Mono M80 Dual Bass case owners/users

[JLY]

The new dual Mono bag I also received from MF had the hooks for the Tick, but there is plenty of storage in the bag itself Like mine so far

Has anyone gotten the Vertigo?

 

[G&L-Forever]

I have the dual M80 bag and the Vertigo. I prefer the M80. I never lay down my M80 on its side anyway! I like how the M80 zips all the way down one side, rather than halfway down one side and then halfway down the other like the Vertigo.

I also like the cable holder inside the main pocket of the M80. My Vertigo has only a big empty pocket (although it is a very sizeable pocket). By the way, my M80 dual bag also has D-rings for the Tick, but personally, I have another bag that I keep all my odds and ends in, so it doesn't matter to me.

I just like the vertigo. Less bulky. No velcro strap. Easier in / out standing up. But of course, that's just me. YMMV

Here's a random question...

I won't always need to carry two basses - is the dual bag a lot bulkier than a single-bass bag? I don't want to be carrying around a house all the time if I don't need to.

It's less bulky with only one bass in it, but still bulkier than a single bag.

This is why I have a single and a double.

From what I can tell on Mono's site, the tick does work with the M80 double. What I wonder is: If I lay the loaded M80 flat on my car back seat, can I safely put the tick on top of it? Or will that be too much weight on the basses?

 

[G&L-Forever]

The basses will be fine with the Tick on top.

 

[Bob Coldwell]

I've read lots of good things about the Reunion Blues RBX-2B also, and it's a LOT cheaper than the Mono. Does anyone have direct experience with it?

 

[G&L-Forever]

Yeah, you're right. Even though the website says it works with any M80 bag, when I got home from work I looked at my dual bag and the required eye loops for attachment aren't there. Oh well. Still think you should go for the bag.

My M80 Dual Bag does have eye loops for the Tick, but personally, I don't use the Tick. I just use a good old-fashioned knapsack. I don't like the idea of the Tick weighing down on the cover, and falling down when I open the bag.

To any M80 Dual Bass Case owners, could you measure the exterior depth (thickness) of this case? I cannot find this kind of info anywhere on monoreators website.

I'm considering in buying this case, but first need to make sure that it can be stored on small gap corner space in my tiny apartment.

Thanks in advance

The width will depend upon whatever you have in the front pocket. Mine is about 8" wide + pocket.

Only 8"...? Wow!!! I would have guessed 30 cm at least from seeing the online pictures and video clips.

Of course front pocket would likely be emptied while being stored in that small gap corner. Thanks GLF.
