[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1461104030' post='3031584'] The Protection Racket is a great gig-bag. Yes it`s as big (and almost the same weight) as a hard case, but due to the pockets so much more can be fitted into it. If doing a gig with a provided backline you can easily get all your leads and a couple of pedals in it, so only having to carry one item - great if limited room in the car or using public transport. [/quote] I have four Protection Racket gigbags and they're great apart from one small and one terrible flaw: they're a bit too big, and they stick out about a foot over my head, crashing into every doorway in sight. I have six Mono bags (bass double, electric double, bass Vertigo, two electric Vertigos and a dreadnought M80), and while they're not cheap they are worth every single penny. Fantastic gigbags.

Aha, mine has the same issue so going to give this a go!

That looks ideal! Have you used this stand yourself with nitro finishes?

Hello folks, I'm after a double stand that will hold two basses or guitars securely, and won't harm nitro finishes (have a few of those now between the necks of my Sadowskys, Gibson CS and older Fenders). Ideally they would fold and store compactly in a gig bag: I have a couple Ultimate stands which are pretty good but wanted to see what else was out there. Thanks!
