Enki AMG-2 Double Bass Case 3. Gen

I have been thinking about getting a decent case to transport my basses 'on the road' for a good while. I'm one of those people that keeps them with me, even to the hotel. Lugging two hard cases is difficult when you have a case with clothes etc in it, too.

A gig bag was no good, as it travels in the back with the gear. So, it had to be solid and portable. More important, it had to store the basses securely. Whenever I buy a case, I put the bass in it and give it a good shake. Very few indeed pass this test.

I did a good bit of research and took into account factors such as security (as above), practicality and value.

The conclusion was this case. It arrived quickly and, after a small adjustment (moving the - moveable - foam to accommodate the necks) I was ready to go. The basses are a really good, snug fit and I have no doubt they will be safe in the Enki.

There are plenty of videos on YouTube to demonstrated their longevity, but I am really pleased with it and have no qualms about the cost.

I view it as a very worthwhile investment.

The perfect service from Thomann aside, this thing could probably serve as a bomb shelter, it is so rugged. My band and I went on a trek from Iceland to Londinium last September, and both my guitarists have Enki cases, and there I was, lugging a single Ibanez around swaths of Londinium in a regular, albeit good hard case like a peasant while they just rolled 2 guitars each behind them in their Enkis.

Upon return to good old Iceland, I decided to contact Thomann and get one myself. Absolutely and 666% recommended!
