bass travel case

Shipping is free to the lower 48 , though occasionally surcharges apply. Such surcharges are usually only if your delivery address is particularly "remote" or, conversely, within a city center where truck deliveries are complicated by urban sprawl. If you place an order for one, we will contact you for approval of any change to the free shipping offer before we collect your payment. To avoid such surcharges, if you are able to ship to a qualifying* business address, that can help, as trucking companies levy a "residential surcharge" for residential deliveries.

* A "qualifying" business address is one that is in a commercial district, where the business is open during regular weekday business hours. Home businesses, schools, and churches, unfortunately, do not count.

Important disclaimer for use of this case:

This durable, form-fit fiberglas case is designed to protect your instrument from damage or breakage when traveling and/or shipping. However, neither we, nor the manfuacturer of the case, can guarantee that your bass cannot be damaged during use, even if used properly.

Varying levels of fragility, or existing weaknesses, in particular instruments can play a role in how well they travel. Additionally, very rough handling can be devastating to musical instruments, even when in extremely durable cases. Please ALWAYS consider insuring the instrument when traveling, even when using a case like this one.

It is also important to use this case as designed for maximum protection; the case is designed to hold the bass ONLY - do NOT pack it into a padded gig bag and then into the case, as this will preclude you from using the internal protective bolsters, neck support, and other features that help secure the instrument inside the case and insulate it from external shocks.

Purchase of upright bass case

Posted by Yolanda Nussdorfer on Jul 9th 2021

I could not be happier with this case. Very well built and very easy to use. Case is sturdy and comes with plenty of padding. It even had enough room inside for my son's 3/4 bass and the soft cover. Shipping was fast and I could not be happier with the customer service. Mark and his team are so very helpful. I will always consider Gollihur my first place to shop, even though I live across the country.

7 Best Guitar Cases For Flying (+TSA Approved Models)

• August 11, 2022
• How do you safely pack a guitar for a flight?
• What are the air travel regulations for guitar cases?
• We dive deep into the best budget to premium cases for flying

Planning a flight can be stressful, and figuring out how to get your guitar onboard is the last thing you should have to worry about.

However, if you only have a gig bag for your guitar, you’ll have to consider your travel plans and your options for getting a hardshell travel guitar case instead. Whether it’s an acoustic guitar or electric guitar, it’s important to properly protect your precious cargo during a flight. 

Therefore, your best option is a guitar flight case. While some hardshell travel guitar cases are still plenty durable, a flight case rated for air travel with TSA-approved locking latches will ensure that your guitar makes it to your destination in one piece.

What Are The Best Guitar Cases For Flying?

Our best pick for guitar cases for flying is the SKB SKB-66 Deluxe Universal Electric Guitar Case . It has newly improved latches with a TSA-approved lock and can fit six-string and seven-string guitars of any body shape.

If you’re on a budget, we recommend the Sound Town Lightweight ABS Road Case for Electric Guitar with TSA Approved Locking Latch and EPS Foam Plush Interior (STEC-500) . This affordable flight case fits all double-cutaway model electric guitars and has a foam plush interior so your guitar fits snugly.

If you’re not concerned with price and can spend a little more, the Gator Titan Series Waterproof Guitar Case with Power Claw Latches for Fender Stratocasters and Telecasters is a road-ready workhorse with a waterproof plush interior, so you know it’ll hold up. 

Below, I’ve rounded up seven of the best guitar cases for flying and reviewed each of them based on quality, price, and style.

Depending on the type of electric guitar or acoustic guitar you have and your needs, there are many options available.

Here’s the list:

• SKB SKB-66 Deluxe Universal Case (Our Pick)
• Sound Town Lightweight ABS Road Case (STEC-500) (Best Value)
• Gator Titan Series Waterproof Guitar Case for Fender Stratocasters and Telecasters (Best Premium)
• Gator GTSA-GTRELEC ATA Molded Guitar Case 
• ProRockGear TSA-Latch ABS Les Paul Style Guitar Case
• Gator ATA Molded Guitar Case for Acoustic Guitars
• SKB Injection Molded Acoustic Guitar Case 

1. SKB SKB-66 Deluxe Universal Electric Guitar Case (Our Pick)

Premium protection for your electric guitar!

• High quality
• Durable and sturdy

SKB is well-known for making robust yet lightweight guitar cases to fit electric and acoustic guitars of any shape, and this one is no exception.

It’s reasonably priced and will protect your guitar while remaining TSA-compliant with its locking latches.

Key Features:

• TSA latches
• Interior aluminum valance to keep away moisture and dirt
• Accessories compartment

One of the best things about this guitar case is that even though it fits six and seven-string guitars of all body shapes, the cutout for the neck is molded so that no matter how your guitar is shaped it won’t shift around and the neck will be properly protected.

The outside is made of molded plastic which is rugged but still quite lightweight, as the case itself only weighs nine pounds. The inside has a moisture-tight aluminum shell to keep your guitar clean and dry , and the TSA-approved latches spring open so they’re easy to close without having to force the case shut.

2. Sound Town Lightweight ABS Road Case for Electric Guitar with TSA Approved Locking Latch and EPS Foam Plush Interior (STEC-500) (Best Value!)

The Sound Town STEC-500 is a lightweight ABS road case with a universal design which fits most Stratocaster and Telecaster electric guitars.

• Foam with plush lining
• Excellent protection
• Lightweight

Sound Town makes a variety of touring and pro-audio equipment racks and storage cases for studios and road warriors alike. This simple flight case won’t break the bank or your guitar, and they have a 1-year warranty which includes repair coverage.

Key Features: 

• Affordable price point at under $200

Most hardshell guitar cases cost at least $200, which is not always affordable for musicians on a budget. That’s where Sound Town guitar cases come in, as they’re a little cheaper but still have the same features as other flight cases by other brands.

This case fits most Stratocaster and Telecaster-style guitar bodies (double cutaway bodies) and has a neck cutout so your guitar won’t shift around. There’s also an accessories compartment, and the case weighs only 10 pounds.

3. Gator Titan Series Waterproof Guitar Case with Power Claw Latches for Fender Stratocasters and Telecasters (Best Premium!)

Gator's GPW-ELECTRIC ATA waterproof electric guitar case is the worry-free way to get your instrument to the gig.

• Prepunched holes for padlocks
• Extra compartment areas

Gator knows how to build a case that will withstand all sorts of touring conditions. From adverse weather to inexperienced van drivers, to 3 am games of Trailer Tetris.

When it comes to air travel, they’re still at the top of their game with this plywood case that’s rock-solid (well, wood). 

• Waterproof and dustproof rated at IP-67
• Includes TSA-approved locks and pre-punched holes on the quick-release latches
• Comes with wheels for easy transport

If you’re able to spend a little more, this Gator tour case is not only great for road travel in a tour bus or van but on a plane as well. While the latches do not have TSA-approved locks on them, the locks are included with the case so you can install them yourself.

The case is the heaviest of all our recommendations at 22 pounds, but the protection it offers is worth its weight, and the case has wheels so you don’t have to carry it everywhere.

Best of all, the Gator Titan Series is dust-proof and waterproof with a rating of IP-67, which means it can be submerged in up to a meter of water (we recommend avoiding this if possible, though!) and the interior of the case will stay dry. 

4. Gator GTSA-GTRELEC ATA Molded Guitar Case with TSA latches for Strat & Tele Style Electric Guitars 

This deluxe case's internal cavity provides a secure fit for your Strat, Tele, or like-styled guitar, and features a plush black interior to prevent scuffs and a neck cradle to prevent warping.

• Ergonomic handle
• Center latch
• Plush interior
• TSA-approved locking center latch
• Military-grade polyethylene exterior shell for ultimate durability
• Plush interior with neck cutout to protect your guitar

While this Gator case is intended mostly for Fender Stratocasters and Telecasters, it can fit other double cutaway-style electric guitar bodies too. Its exterior shell is made of military-grade materials, so you know it can take a beating.

One of the nice details is that only the center latch locks (and is TSA-approved), so it will be easier to open the guitar case for inspection if necessary, yet it’ll still be protected. At 13.6 pounds, it’s a little hefty, but its rugged construction makes up for the slight weight increase and the ergonomic handle offsets it as well.

5. ProRockGear TSA-Latch ABS Les Paul Style Guitar Case

The ProRockGear ABS Les Paul Style guitar case is comprised of hard molded plastic with reinforced bumpers and reinforced aluminum to guard your cherished instrument. 

• Raised bumpers
• Lightweight at 8 pounds
• Interior storage compartment for accessories

It can be harder to find an electric guitar case to fit a Les Paul-style guitar body since double-cutaway guitar cases are a lot more common. This lightweight durable option will protect your guitar in flight without having to spend too much.

The raised bumpers on the feet help keep the case from tipping over, adding to its stability. Depending on your guitar, you might find that the neck cutout is slightly wide, but many players had success with wrapping their fretboard cleaning cloth around their guitar neck so that it fits snugly. It also fits easily in an overhead compartment.

6. Gator ATA Molded Guitar Case With TSA Latches for Acoustic Guitars

Plush-lined hardshell case for acoustic guitars. This lightweight and protective case fits most models.

• Neck cradle to prevent warping
• Well-padded and sealed interior
• TSA locking center latch
• Exterior shell built to military specifications
• Ergonomic molded plastic handle

This case is meant for dreadnought acoustic guitars, but depending on the body shape of your guitar, could fit a hollow body electric guitar or an acoustic-electric guitar.

The molded feet allow you to stand it upright while you’re waiting in line at the airport . Its well-padded and sealed interior will protect the body of your acoustic guitar from humidity.

7. SKB Injection Molded Acoustic Guitar Case With TSA Latches And Wheels

The SKB cases are constructed of ultra high-strength polypropylene copolymer resin and feature a waterproof and airtight, submersible design that is resistant to corrosion and impact damage. 

• Resistant to corrosion
• Molded-in hinges
• Recessed wheels on the bottom of the case that won’t break or wear down
• Pressure valve to protect against humidity and dirt

While the price on this one is a little higher, a lot of acoustic guitar cases tend to be lighter and less durable, so this is a great option if you have an expensive acoustic guitar you want to protect.

While the case itself is pretty heavy at 22 pounds, it has wheels, so this is a non-issue.

The pressure valve will help to seal the case against humidity and the elements . The case has a lot of extra storage for accessories, so everything you need for your gig will be in one place. As a plus, the interior of the case can fit left-handed and right-handed guitar models.

While this is intended for dreadnought acoustic guitars, depending on the body shape, it might fit a smaller model as well. If in doubt, check with SKB to see if your guitar will fit.

Is it OK to take my guitar on as hand luggage?

Generally, the regulations for carrying on acoustic guitars or electric guitars to a flight will vary according to which airline you’re flying and where you’re going.

In a perfect world, they shouldn’t; since 2012, there’s been a Department of Transportation rule in effect in the US which states in part that if your instrument is too large for an overhead compartment you can put it in a seat next to you in the cabin (and purchase that seat).

However, this rule still depends on how crowded your flight is and what type of plane you’re in, so it’s best to contact the airline and check specifics.

Another option is to use the storage closet aboard the plane where the crew puts their personal belongings; if it’s not a very crowded flight, talk to airline personnel and they’ll likely be willing to work with you.

If you’re flying internationally, there are no regulations, so be sure to check with the airline first and plan to arrive at least an hour earlier than usual in case something comes up.

If you’re planning to carry your guitar onto the plane rather than checking it as luggage, you should actually use a gig bag rather than a flight case, as it will give you more flexibility.

Can a guitar fit in an overhead bin?

This will depend somewhat on the size of the plane, the size of the guitar, how crowded the flight is, and the size of your gig bag or guitar case.

Generally, however, a guitar will fit in an overhead bin and take up about as much room as three carry-on suitcases.

Can you take a guitar on a plane without a case?

It’s not recommended, as then your guitar won’t be protected against bumps, drops, and scratches. Airline regulations regard guitars as carry-on luggage, so they should be in a gig bag or case just like any other piece of luggage.

Is a guitar considered oversized baggage?

Technically yes. However, unlike a snowboard or skis, for example, you’re now allowed to purchase a seat for your guitar.

Should I insure my guitar before I fly?

Insurance for your gear- whether or not you travel or tour- is always a great idea. See if you can find a policy that covers accidental damage and loss or theft.

We recommend taking photos of your instruments beforehand and noting any serial numbers or unique features in case of loss or theft.

What if my guitar gets damaged in-flight?

If your guitar is not insured and something happens to it, you’ll still be able to file a claim with the airline and might be able to get the cost of a repair or replacement covered by the airline.

However, processing might take a while and it’s not guaranteed that the repair or replacement will be covered in full.

If your guitar gets damaged, stolen, or lost during the course of your flight and you end up in your destination with no guitar or with a broken guitar, there are still things you can do. Look up local repair shops or music stores and see if there are any musical instrument rental shops in the area.

It never hurts to hit up local Facebook groups, Craiglist, or local classified ads either; you might be able to at least find a replacement for your upcoming gig, even if it’s not the same type of guitar.

You can also ask any other bands you’re playing with that night; these things happen to the best of us, and most other musicians are more than willing to lend a hand.

As much as we’ve all heard the horror stories about guitars getting damaged by TSA agents or luggage handlers, airlines are becoming more conscientious of regulations for musical instruments, and many musicians who have lost or damaged guitars during a flight have gotten them recovered or repaired.

How do I pack a guitar for a flight?

When you pack your guitar for the flight, remember that not everyone inspecting it will be as familiar with it as you. Thankfully, there are some simple steps you can take to prevent mishaps and make other people’s lives easier too.

First, take any accessories out and store them in your suitcase if you feel they might shift around during the flight.

Second, if your guitar has any specialized hardware or modifications that might get placed back in the case incorrectly during an inspection, remove them if possible or put padding around them (such as strap locks).

Third, due to shifting air pressure and altitude during the flight, the tension on your guitar’s neck might change, which can be alleviated somewhat by detuning the strings. Especially if they’re new strings, this will definitely save you some grief when you arrive.

What To Look For in a Guitar Case for Flying

In general, whether it’s an acoustic guitar flight case or electric guitar flight case, look for a case with either included TSA-approved latches or an optional add-on kit. Make sure the neck of the guitar fits snugly and is protected by a foam interior.

If the guitar case is heavier than 12 pounds or so, you might want to look for something with wheels. Thankfully, the airline regulations are on our side and there are many options out there for guitar cases for flying.

If you do your research based on our recommendations, you’re bound to find something which suits your needs. Safe travels and rock on!

Can any of the above go on board with carry on luggage?

The unmentioned enki is the superior case by far. It’s not even close.

Thanks for the suggestion, Chuck! I’m going to get the team to look into it, and we’ll consider adding it in if it indeed deserves a spot on here like you say it does!

Bought the Enkie case. It holds two electrics but they also sell them for acoustics or wide bodies. It has a great handle, wheels and it’s not oversized. With two Gibsons it’s not over weight either. I took both my Les Pauls across Canada to Pearson Airport, down to Guanajuato Mexico, then to Costa Rica, Back to Mexico City, then to Bogota Colombia, Back from Bogota to Mexico City, Mexico City to Puerto Vallarta, then a direct flight to Canada again. Not a scratch, no problems, no overage charges, no damage to the case other than a lot of scuffs and a few scratches. I have no regrets at all about buying the Enkie Case. Next flight is to Europe. We’ll see how it goes but if it can handle Latin America I’m not too too worried about Europe.

How are Hiscox not mentioned here?

Following a flight, my Hiscox case unexpectedly fell off the flatbed truck while on the highway, had a few bounces on the road, and unfortunately, got run over by a car.

On the other hand, my custom Patrick Eggle guitar survived the ordeal without a scratch.

Although the case ended up with multiple cracks, pieces of plastic falling off, and a non-functional hinge, it fulfilled its purpose perfectly.

That’s a great testimonial for them! We’re always updating our lists over time. The next time we do, we’ll definitely consider adding Hiscox! Thanks so much.

‘Total Disgrace’: Anger, Frustration as Mass Heating Failures Across Russia Leave Thousands in the Cold

P ODOLSK, Moscow region – Residents throughout Russia affected by unprecedented winter heating outages in recent days have expressed their frustration and urged local authorities to restore heating in their homes.

In Podolsk, a town some 30 kilometers south of the capital Moscow, at least 149,000 residents — nearly half of its population — were left without heating when a heating main burst at a nearby private ammunition plant.

“It’s a total disgrace. There is no heating and no hot water. We have to sleep in sleeping bags,” Yuri, a local resident, told The Moscow Times.

“I have no words to describe how bad the situation is," said Yuri, who declined to provide his surname. "We have had no heating for almost six days."

Heating issues have affected residents in the Moscow region, where temperatures have plunged to as low as minus 20 degrees Celsius in the past week, as well as people in the Far East Primorye region , the cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg , Penza , the southern Voronezh and Volgograd regions and more.

In the Tver region, a group of residents filmed an appeal to President Vladimir Putin, saying that they “are freezing from the cold” in the village of Novozavidovsky.

“We're literally being killed by the cold,” a woman in the video said, adding that they have been sending requests to local authorities since September after their houses were connected to a boiler room whose power was reportedly insufficient.

“This is some kind of torture and extermination of the population 100 kilometers from Moscow,” she added.

Residents of the Moscow region town of Elektrostal lit a fire in the street to draw the authorities’ attention to the heating problem.

“It’s impossible to stay in our houses. We're freezing!” a group of women in the video said.

Suffering from subzero temperatures, residents are placing the blame on local authorities and utility services for failing to take necessary precautions and not taking action to resolve the situation.

“We are sending complaints everywhere but no one listens to us. We have portable heaters working in every room, but the temperature inside is still 10 degrees Celsius,” Yelena from Podolsk said.

“There is a clinic and a hospital, as well as kindergartens, where there is no heating. And we have no answers, no assistance, no explanation,” Yelena added.

Podolsk authorities opened temporary heating centers and declared a state of emergency.

Local authorities linked the heating problems to the fact that the town is heated by a boiler plant owned by the Klimovsk Specialized Ammunition Plant, a private ammunition factory and one of the largest weapon cartridge production enterprises in the country.

“The facility is under tight security conditions, which limits our ability to oversee winter preparations,” the Moscow region’s Vice Governor Yevgeny Khromushin said last week. “We were unaware of the problem for nearly a day.”

An unidentified Moscow region official and two senior executives at the plant were arrested on suspicion of providing unsafe services, Russia’s Investigative Committee, which probes major crimes, said in a statement Tuesday.

Investigators said that Podolsk’s deputy mayor was accused of misusing authority by issuing a readiness certificate for the boiler house at the plant.

In the neighboring Tver region, the authorities opened a criminal case over the laundering of over 84 million rubles ($938,993) in heating bills paid by residents, the Astra Telegram channel reported this week, citing unidentified sources. According to investigators, the heads of the local water intake and boiler house misappropriated the heating payments for personal use.

Reacting to the heating failures, Putin on Tuesday asked Emergency Situations Minister Alexander Kurenkov to provide heat and electricity to the affected residents.

The outages appear to be the latest effect of several decades of crumbling infrastructure in Russia which have been linked to endemic corruption and mismanagement.

The overall decay of Russia's municipal infrastructure surpassed 70% in 2022, the pro-Kremlin newspaper Izvestia reported .

According to Sergei Pakhomov, head of the State Duma’s Construction, Housing and Utilities Committee, water pipes that were 90 years old or even older were still in use as recently as two years ago in some cases.

Housing, utilities and communal services are a common source of problems for Russians during the winter.

In St. Petersburg, residents regularly complain about extensive ice coverage on city streets and sidewalks, with many people ending up in the hospital over the years due to slipping and falling accidents.

In the Siberian republic of Khakassia, two villages were left without electricity last month due to apparent issues with outdated communication systems.

In the winter of 2020, five people in the Perm region were killed after a pipe burst.

When asked about the latest heating outages, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov acknowledged the problems and linked them to poor municipal infrastructure, saying that people “had to endure a lot of inconvenience in the cold and without electricity.”

"Despite all the titanic efforts to update all housing and communal services systems, there's still a certain part that remains considerably deteriorated. These programs will continue, but it is impossible to update all pipes and all housing and communal services systems in 10-15 years,” Peskov said.

As for now, residents affected by heating issues appear to lack optimism that the problems will be solved efficiently.

"It's been a week since we've had heating, and the temperature in my apartment is around 11 degrees Celsius,” Podolsk resident Lidiya told The Moscow Times.

“Unfortunately, no one knows when it will be repaired,” she added.

The issues of portability and transportation affect double bass players of all levels and styles.  We understand the difficulties facing touring musicians when it comes to weight and size restrictions. We also understand the desire to have a fully functioning, great sounding and inspiring acoustic bass to play once you reach your destination!   Enter the UB Travel Bass.  Upton Bass has developed what we believe to be the finest removable/adjustable-neck option available for the double bass, at a price that makes it available to a whole new segment of musicians.

Upton Bass Hardshell Flight Case for UB Travel Bass

The Upton Bass Hardshell Flight Case is designed to pair with the UB Travel Bass to arrive under the magic 50-pound weight target for airline flight. Minimalistic in design, our clamshell uses a military grade strapping system and has nothing to break off during the drama of airline travel.

The system was conceived with two goals – to produce a sophisticated evolution of our removable neck upgrade and to develop a smooth and dependable adjustable neck function. We believe both goals have been met with many added benefits. The UB Travel Double Bass system uses an interlocking high-strength aluminum joint in the neck block which allows the neck to be removed and replaced with perfect fit and precision. The system also allows for direct, instant adjustability of your string height and action!  Using the hex key at the back of the neck joint, you can dial in exactly the string height you require for any musical style, feel, or season.

Goodbye bridge risers!

We have found the adjustable neck to be addictive – do you require a pronounced string action for bowing and section work one evening, only to need jazz bass growl the next?  You can literally dial up your preferred action between tunes.  For transport, remove the neck and pack into the included flight case.

You can still choose your favorite Upton Bass model and have it built with a removable neck for travel!
