Protection

  Midbag Suspension System (Patent Pending)  

 

Ordinary Bag – Instruments rest on side and bottom.

In ordinary bags, the delicate protruding parts of the musical instrument touch the bottom and side walls of the gig bag. In the event of an accidental impact the delicate protruding parts (1, 2 and 3) are liable to be damaged.

Mid Bag Suspension System – Instrument is suspended in mid air inside the bag.

In the mid bag suspension system the music instrument is held by the more robust parts of the musical instrument (leaving the delicate parts suspended in mid air). This is done by flexible belts and a foam cone fixing the bell. (Patent applied for)
As a result, 9 out of 10 times, the music instrument will escape damage when dropped.

 

All round total protection = hard foam + no gaps

1. A specially formulated hard foam is used. This foam is expensive, dense and highly impact resistant. We test the hard foam by bouncing a 300gm glass ball on the foam laid over a glass plate. Only if the glass ball or glass plate does not break, chip or crack, then the foam is approved for use.

Ordinary bags use soft foam, which does not protect.

 

2. For all round total protection, there is no gap under the seam. A removable wooden disc padded with hard foam ensures double protection under the seam to the vulnerable bell area of your music instrument

In ordinary bags the foam protection stops short 1/2" (12mm) on both sides of the seam. Along the seam there is a 1" (25mm) gap in foam protection. The bell lip of the music instrument slips into this unprotected gap under the seam and is easily damaged by any impact on the seam.

Removable wooden disc padded!

No gap under seam

Ordinary bag- gap under seam

 

3. For all round total protection there is no gap under the zipper. A band of thick hard foam is sewn under the zipper (zipper guard). This zipper guard prevents the music instrument from damage by impact or by scratches from the zipper.

Zipper Guard		No gap under zipper
In ordinary bags there is a gap in foam protection under the zipper. Without any protection the music instrument is easily damaged by any impact on the zipper. It is also easily scratched by the zipper.
