99ster Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 (edited) Been looking for a big bag/holdall to put about 10 microphone stands in (7 of them are the small/short ones you use for mics for amps & snare drums). Any ideas / suggestions would be most appreciated! Thanks. Edited February 20, 2008 by 99ster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazm Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I use a Thomann one but it only holds 6 stands. Weighs a ton when full mind so good luck lugging 10 around if you find a suitable bag. Pete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldGit Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Whatever you get make sure it has wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subthumper Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Why not look at some of the drum hardware cases, a lot of those have wheels and as someone pointed out its gonna be pretty heavey with 10 mic stand in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 7 small stands - are all aluminium & much lighter than a standard full-size mic stand - so it should be manageable (especially for 2 people). This looks like a contender: [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/millenium_hwb44_hardware_bag.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/millenium_hwb44_hardware_bag.htm[/url] Cheers Jim Edited February 21, 2008 by 99ster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was gigging with it 3 times a week I'd have flight case on wheels & roadies to hump it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakenewmanbass Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 The band I regularly gig with has a drum hardware case made of a really tough nylon with heavy duty zips (protection racket I think) it easily holds 5 mike stands 2 speaker stands 1 guitar stand 1 trombone stand (although I think it would sound better if stood on) and a few small prop stands quite heavy though 2man lift really although I can just about manage it alone. But its a great bag and has been used for about 150 gigs a year for prob 4yrs now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
