Gage Travel Case for Bass/Cello

After 30 years of sending bassists on the road, we’ve created the finest travel trunk yet:

• White exterior to reflect ultraviolet rays, keeping the instrument cool.
• Neoprene gasket lining seated in top lip retaining trough to seal out moisture.
• All latches and handles recessed to guard against damage. Spring loaded, rubber grip, strategically placed handles that recoil below the surface of the trunk.
• Interior fitted with unique air bag and suspension system. Each bag has two connected chambers that conform to the instrument's shape.
• Tough rubber sling that cradles the scroll and absorbs vibration and impact.
• Humidifier in all trunks; necessary when traveling in high altitudes and through different climates.
• Cases designed to have padded cover over instrument while in the case, affording extra humidity and temperature protection.
• Extremely wide wheel base at bottom of back. No tipping while going over cobblestones, rounding corners, or rushing through airports.
• Weight 54 lbs, 24.50 kilos.
• Inset wheels. Light wheels affixed to the trunk are strong and sure-footed.
• Butterfly "key-less" latches keep the trunk light and are easy for airport security to open and close, reducing damage to the trunk and its contents during inspection.

The Gage Case is the strongest, sleekest, most road-proven travel trunk on the market because it has to be.
