Fits my bass, although it doesn't fit my largest electric 4-string. No problem, though, as I had that one in a brand case already. This will fit most intermediately sized basses. There is area for individual shaping, within. The pocket is pretty deep, actually. I'm sure this will last at least a few years.

Often, a bulky hard case is just too much around the house or for local transportation in the car. I can remember when gig bags were crappy vinyl zipper bags with no padding that came with cheap guitars. This product is head and shoulders above those, with nearly the same padded protection as a hard case. I was happy enough with this gig bag to buy another for my acoustic guitar! The shoulder straps are a nice bonus if you're walking or cycling an urban environment.

Not totally a piece of junk .......... but: the padding is not very good, there straps are cheaply made, the pocket is small, ... overall, this bag is not really very good. Its a cheap bag , with little to no padding ... I'm sure there are better bags ...

I was having difficulties finding a gig bag for my 000 because it's not a dreadnought, but it's also differently shaped from classical guitars. I took a chance on this gig bag since it kept coming up in my searches. My guitar fits just right. There is a little bit of wiggle room, mostly at the bottom and the waist of the guitar, but as others have suggested, a rolled up towel will work to fill the space. Wish Gator would sell padding you can add. This case is durable and lightweight. I look forward to using it when I'm on my way to my lessons.

This is for the "Bass" option.
-I own a full scale boutique style 5 string bass guitar(24 frets, 35" scale), and this case fits it perfect. I would venture to say that there are very few electric basses that would not fit in this case.
-Feels tough and well constructed. Has extra layers of padding that make it unusually well padded for a soft case, while still being easier to haul around than a hard case. The extra padding at the bottom is a nice touch.
-Has a single zip-up pocket on the front, with a netted pouch inside it. The size is reasonable. It would fit a couple small textbooks, a tuner, etc. Nothing crazy, but good for a soft case.

Two reasons for 4 stars instead of 5:
-First, the extra padding at the bottom seems to be made of that really soft microfiber stuff. I wish the entire inside of the case was made of that stuff, instead of the nylon. And I'd be willing to pay extra for that.
-Second, the shoulder straps seem to be too low. I'm 5'9'', and I have to duck to avoid hitting the top of by bass on doorways. I've tried loosening the straps as far as they'll go, but that creates other problems. IMO the straps ought to have been placed higher on the case, which is a bummer because I was looking forward to being able to backpack my bass around. I still can, of course, but I have to watch out. Not a deal-breaker for me, but worth mentioning. Also this could be a normal problem that I was just not aware of until now.

Overall this is a really good case in the realm of soft cases. It raises the bar, while retaining the classic advantages of a soft case(lightweight, takes up less room, etc.) as compared to a hard case.
