    4 months ago I bought a warwick thumb, the bass is great I couldn't be happier with it but... The case it came with (warwick rockbag premium line) which is around £70 to buy separately has completely fell apart after just 4 months of use. It appears this case cannot handle the weight of the bass and the nylon material has just torn away from the stitching on all sides, I can't use it now as the bass is showing through the bottom of the case and I don't wanna risk scratching its beautiful wood. I am surprised as the case is from warwick I thought It would have been designed to take the weight of these basses.

    Anyone else had this problem? Need new case now any recommendations for a very durable and protective soft case?

    I have has so many of them but to be honest I don't use them out of the house they are too soft and flimsy for me. I have never seen that happen but in only 4 months have you tried to take it back to where you bought it and return it?

    Every company I have bought anything from on a regular basis I have at one time or another had an issue with a product at times. Looks bad to me too I think they should replace it or give you credit and maybe you could get a more rigid bag...

    That's strange. I bought a 2004 Corvette Standard used about a month or two ago and it came with the original rockbag...9 years old and still holding up.
