Road Runner Premium Gig Bag

Agreed. I usually just carry mine.
Still a good band for the buck bag
How many do YOU have?
Sonic? Just 1?
Only one of these. My prior go-to was/is this Gator case, but I just changed pedalboards to something with wheels, and the bottom sqaure shape of the Gator case is making it hard to wheel-behind-me my pedalboard.

That said, that Gator bag you can usually find on-sale for ~80 a few times a year, and that's an amazing bag/case/backpack; I love it, and its definitely thinner than this RR case but still feels solid as heck as its got a hard molded frame for the outside is wrapped around.


Got a mono dual bag around here too, but that doesn't come out too often :)

Got my black yesterday and holy cow it is amazing. The only downside so far is the way the backpack straps are, it sits higher than my Gator case and therefore I have to duck through doors; my gator case doesn't require that.
I've let out the backpack straps as far as they will go so that the bass sits as low as I can get it. I'm short so doorways aren't really a problem for me.

I really wish Roadrunner made a double bag in this series. When it comes to gigging I always bring 2 basses. They are transported in a double bag for convenience. Right now my espresso Roadrunner bag is being used for rehearsals only where I usually only bring 1 bass. My other 2 Roadrunner bags are being stored as backups. :)

I have 3 really nice gig bags (plus a very average double-bag that I don't even remember the brand name). I have a Protec Contego, a Mono M80, and the Espresso Road Runner. All three are very nice. I think the Contego offers the best protection. The Mono is nice and probably LOOKS the coolest. The Road Runner probably has the most storage capability for accessories.

Maybe it's the uniqueness of the Espresso color, but I'm loving the Road Runner. Plus at the sale price, you just can't beat the bang-for-the-buck...

I've always wished someone made a single gig bag, that could connect/strap to another gig bag; ala this bag when you need one, and 2 of this bag strapped together when you need two.

Ive got a Mono M80 dual though that kicks butt, and got it used like-new for ~$200

Road Runner RR5TEB-BSC Highway Premium Electric Bass Gig Black Stealth Camo
Got what I need, may have extra one even...
Wifey will want me to get rid of it... Might be putting it up here for "on sale" cost...
Boy, I like these... Have seen some others of friends as the are loading out... Wonder how some of those gigbags protect the instrument at all??
These RoadRunners are pretty rain solid!
