GatorGL-AC-BASS Lightweight Acoustic Bass Guitar Case
1/7
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Lightweight hardshell case cut for acoustic bass bodies. For players who want rigid protection without road-case weight.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Carrying an acoustic bass to rehearsals and small gigs
- Players who find full road cases too heavy to hand-carry
- Anyone upgrading from a gig bag for real impact protection
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Checked airline baggage or heavy touring abuse
- Owners of oversized or non-standard acoustic bass bodies
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
6-1/2 inch body height
Acoustic bass bodies are deep. This depth clears them where a guitar case would not.
Detail 03
25 inch body length
Body length only, not overall instrument length. Check the neck fits the case interior too.
Detail 04
13-3/4 inch upper bout
Narrower shoulders mean a snug fit. A wide-shouldered body may not seat properly.
Detail 05
Lightweight construction
Easier to hand-carry than plywood cases, at the cost of some crush resistance.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure your bass at lower bout, upper bout, and body depth first
- 02Fits acoustic basses, not full-scale upright or standard acoustic guitars
- 03Loose fit lets the instrument shift; check the neck support seats correctly
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will my acoustic-electric bass fit?
If its lower bout is near 17-1/4 inches and body depth is under 6-1/2 inches, yes. Onboard preamps and endpin jacks do not change the fit.
02Can I use this for a regular acoustic guitar?
It is cut for acoustic bass proportions. A six-string acoustic would sit loose and shift in transit.
03Is it safe to check on a flight?
This is a lightweight case, not a flight case. For checked baggage, use a case rated for air travel.
04How do I know if my bass fits?
Measure lower bout, upper bout, middle bout, and body depth on your instrument and compare to the case dimensions. Body length matters too.
