Gator G-PG-Semi-hollow / V Bag

I waited a little bit until writing this evaluation in order to see that the product indeed stands some test of time.
The product indeed answers my expectations as a professional touring guitarist. It keeps the guitar safe, also from rain.
The only downside is a bit the weight of the bag which is relatively heavy (I estimate around 4 kg) and a bit stiff for your back as the bag is sort of hard.
If it's about going door to door by car to your concert, then it's perfect! If you depend on trains and quite some walking in between, the weight is a point to take into consideration.
For sure a very good product overall!

Some time ago I bought this product for a guitar that did not have a gig bag. I knew about Gator products and a friend of mine showed me his Gator gigbag which quite impressed me when saw it for real. Indeed the gigbag was exactly what I expected. I recently bought the same product for a guitar whose case got damaged. Unfortunately, the same Gator product came with a MUCH LOWER quality than the first purchased. More precisely, the material inside the gigbag is thinner and not so smooth... actually I wonder if this material is safe indeed to really protect the guitar finish. To be honest, I did not expect such a difference in quality for the same product and the same price.
