Double Bass Reunion Blues Bag. Anyone using?

[armybass]

Just curious if anyone has and uses this bag RB offered many years ago. As I recall they were fairly expensive but good quality. Do they still pop up used?
I had one and it was a great bag but kinda heavy and hard to fold up and store on the gig.

Great bag if you never have to carry the bass very far.

I have a 7/8 in the attic. Some guy gave it to me after the zipper blew out just slightly. {shrugs}

I still have a 3/4 one. Weight is not as much of an issue for me as the fold up and storage issue. The insurance company does not like those backpack straps on the back. A claim on a bass in this bag may not be honored.

Oooooohhh that’s good to know for high dollar instruments. I’ve had a few back surgeries and backpacking an upright is not in my future but still that’s good to know.

Best thing to do with backpack straps is cut them off, removing the temptation to use them.
