Superb quality double gig bag, with lots of storage - 4 zipped compartments, tablet compartment, even a rain cover.
Bought from this parish, used once by me. Pretty much as new condition.
Price includes shipping to UK mainland.
Spendy when new - link to more info at Andertons here: https://www.andertons.co.uk/gator-pro-go-bass-2x-gig-bag-for-2-bass-guitars

This kind of cloth straightens up with a very light going over with a hair dryer. Good luck

..... then why are you looking elsewhere? Just get another one of those (and save yourself a butt load of cash too)?
Because.......... err, you make a good point. I'll see how easy it is to use the case in a standing position.

It might not be my old one then. The wear pattern in the roadworn finish is identical to my old one though. Perhaps they were done to a pattern. Good luck with anyway!

I sold this bass with a Ki0gon loom fitted, upgrade CTS solid shaft pots, jack and a nice capacitor. If they are still in it, this is a good deal. I'm tempted to buy it back, I've had sellers remorse since I sold it.

I have a M80. As a case it is fantastic. It's protected my bass when a heavy 2x10 fell on it. It is possible to squeeze it into tight spaces in the car where a hard case would never fit.
However as a gig bag it fails miserably. For me the whole point of a gig bag is that I can put my bass in it and then walk 30 minutes to the rehearsal room or local gig. However, unless you are very tall the bottom of the case slaps against the back of your legs while you are walking with it. Bearable for about 5 minutes after which it is both painful and annoying.
You make a good point. I don't often walk a distance with my gig bag, but when I do, I want it to be right. The TGI Extreme I have has none of this leg slappage of which you speak, and I've walked some fair distances with that one.
There is an element of "the grass is greener" going on for me here I'm sure. But I have almost made up my mind to sell the Reunion Blues and the Gator cases and try something else. The Mono seemed like a good bet. I wonder if the Bass Sleeve also has the same issue as the M80 you have?

it is fine with the neck strap on the holder.
Just looked more closely at the pics. The neck support is different on mine.

You can take out the bass standing up.
Hmm. I have the guitar version of this. I really don't like the neck rest/holder, it's really loose. Admittedly I bought this a few years ago, is yours ok?

Unfortunately a refinish but what a colour! https://thebassgallery.com/products/fender-precision-bass-1962
It might be just me, but I can't bring myself to pay big money for a refinished guitar, although I'm sure it's lovely.
Off topic, but their lack of detail in describing their basses is frustrating. Some of the vintage Fenders have not a single word!

I love my M80 - my Tecamp Puma900 and 2 leads fit in the outside pocket - makes my life easier.
Can you put the bass in and out from a standing position with that one?

I should have added that I do own a couple of cases from either end of the spectrum.
I have a Reunion Blues Continental Traveler which is a superb case, but it's a bit bulky, needs to lie flat to open, and on the heavier side for a gig bag - https://www.andertons.co.uk/reunion-blues-continental-voyager-electric-bass-guitar-case
Also, at the other end of the scale I have a TGI Extreme which gets used a lot more often than the Reunion Blues because it's just light and handy.
I also have a A Gator PRO GO BASS 2X GIG BAG FOR 2 BASS GUITARS, which I have never used, and will probably never use, as when I put two basses in it, it's too heavy to be practical! - https://www.andertons.co.uk/bass-dept/bass-guitar-strings-accessories/cases-bags-for-bass-guitars/gig-bags-for-bass-guitars/gator-pro-go-bass-2x-gig-bag-for-2-bass-guitars

I fancy a Mono case, but there's a few to choose from, and I can't go and see them.
I like the idea of pulling the bass out of the case from a standing position on tight stages.
There's a the Bass Sleeve, Stealth Case, M80, Vertigo and Vertigo Ultra, all steadily increasing in price.
What's a the basic Bass Sleeve like for you, or any of the others for that matter?
Cheers,
Rob

ooo ooo ooo ooo heck, nice, oh no.
I also have that cab, and a Bergantino. Must resist.
Good luck with it.

Lovely bass, and a very good price in my opinion. I'm surprised it hasn't been snapped up.
Good luck with it.

It's been a while.....
This project is up and running again after being put on the back burner for a while.
Martin and I have been through various ideas about how to re-work this amp, and we both settled eventually on build it again from scratch, only way to be sure, blast off and nuke it from space.
The circuit is Martin's take on various Fender circuits including the Tweed Bassman (don't get hot under the collar, it will stay clean). The mini switches have been reconfigured as mid-voicing presets in the absence of a mid pot on either channel. The output transformer is a high quality after-market Twin Reverb unit, big iron, so now running at 8 ohms to match my BF Super Compact.
It's not far from the finish line now I think, and I can't wait to get it back. Martin is also open to tweaking things further down the line as it gets used and any changes needed become apparent.
Anyway, the money shot, compare with the internal shot from my first post.

Hello, is this still available?
Apologies, I forgot to update my post.
It's a long story, but this was sold, then lost by EVRI, then I had to refund the buyer and fight EVRI for my money back.
Never use EVRI.
