Thomann Beat Bass Gigbag

I bought a Squire Bronco Bass a few months ago but could not find a gig bag to fit it. I used to carry it around in a full size bag but it was a bit floppy at the ends.
Anyway, last week I decided to buy a Harley Benton Beat Fretless bass from Thomann and I also treated myself to the Thomann Beat Bass Gig-bag. Low and Behold the bag also fitted my Bronco and of course the beat bass perfectly. One bag for two basses.
The quality of this bag is what you would expect from Thomann. Strong, not too heavy (far lighter than a case and easier to carry around) and of course a lot of protection to the basses.
The straps on the back are a really strong and handy. I can carry the bass on my back and still leave my hands free for other gear. It will take my bass, strap, lead, music, tuner, phone, wallet, pen, note book and a host of other light gear.
The zips are very strong and the stitching is top quality.
If you want to carry your Beat Bass around PLUS other short scale basses then this is the one for you. I am as pleased as Punch with it

I bought this item to comply with college health and safety which bans the use of hardcases in the college due to the volume of them being a fire risk.
I bought this hoping it would provide the protection needed for a Hofner bass without a centre block. The bag is well made and well padded but I still wouldn't blindly trust airport baggage handlers or the undercarriage of a bus with it.
The design allows the bass to be transported without the awkward overextended head height Hofner style gig bags are famous for.
I would feel completely confident in using this bag to get my bass whenever I require it for studying, rehersals, or teaching. That being said, for anything like a gig venue or long distance travel i.e overseas I would use my hardcase. The bag is also capable of folding up nicely in any luggage bag for use on arrival.
In summary, This item is great for avoiding the inconvenience of lugging a hardcase around and provides everyday levels of protection for the instrument, for the bigger jobs and longer journeys a hardcase is my recommendation.

Bought a fretless Harley Benton violin beatbass and needed a sturdy gig bag for it, especially since I knew I'd have to transport it across the country by a train. It didn't disappoint. It's even MORE sturdier than I'd thought it'd be, honestly?

Really thick and well-made. Has not one, but TWO pockets, and they're really useful and spacious; can fit any cables, picks, sheet music, etc. Comfortable to wear on your back. The only downside is that when I carry it in my hand, it tends to dive towards the neck, which is to be expected on a semi-hollow bass since its neck IS much heavier than the body; but I'd probably change the placement of the side handle more towards the neck so that the whole thing is more balanced.

Still a really, really good bag tho. I feel safe with it lol

I bought two of these because I'd bought two Harley Benton fretless Beat basses. (One to remain as is, the other to be modified and fingerboard toughened for the HB Acoustic Bass strings - see review elsewhere).

This product is made of tough, hard wearing material that I'm certain would last a lifetime!! The Zips are heavy duty with large grips for easy operating. There are two pockets on the front of the gig bag; one's quite large and roughly square and is fastened approx where the guitar body will be inside the bag, the other's at the headstock end of the neck so is thin and rectangular. Both have good zips and both are easily big enough to hold all the bits and bobs us bassists need.

If push came to shove and I needed to transport an expensive bass without its hard shell case, the Harley Benton bag would be a good choice.

Very good all round!
