Gewa BS 25 Double Bass Bag 3/4

After both zips on my old bass sack broke I was looking for a bag that was sturdy, well-padded and didn't cost the Earth.

I can safely say the Gewa ticks all those boxes. It has ample padding, lots of handy pockets for stashing your bow, rosin, pickup, cables, sheet music and so forth; a good number of handles for lifting your bass in and out of cars etc.; and the straps for carrying on the back are comfortable and well-padded. The castors mounted on the bottom are a nice addition but I haven't found a use for them yet I must say!

I gig 3-4 nights a week and the bag has served me excellently so far. I would definitely recommend this product!

I use this case mostly to carry between my house and a local Jam.

The bag is decently padded, with all the areas of the instrument well protected.

The small wheels only work on reasonably flat ground, due to size, but it's perfect for carrying inside the venue.

The spike does stick out when the bass in stored.

There's plenty of room for storing small item and big-flat ones, like paper and books.

The straps seem to be well sewed and sturdy.

The only thing I'm missing is a place to hold a visible ownership tag.

I have owned this case for several years, actually since I upgraded my bass and felt it needed more protection. First let me say that it is an excellent product. The handles are well placed for manoeuvring the bass through doorways and up stairs and the wheels are very useful.
The case provides good protection and the zips are good quality.
The zip pulls however didn’t last a year, annoying but not a game changer.
The only downside is the weight. This case feels like it doubles the weight of your bass. The wheels are essential for this bass but they do make it heavier. Also it’s difficult to store because it’s difficult to fold. Mine hangs on the back of the music room door. Not pretty.
So in conclusion an excellent product but it’s toughness and quality work against it.

Having wheels is a must have, but the problem is that the wheels are mounted on a wooden plate that's probably too big causing one of the corners of this plate to harm the bag making a small hole on it.
It does not represent any threat to the bass though.

Apart from that it great, again the wheels are a must, regarding the price it feels well built, resistant, well padded it can sustain it self standing against a wall like if it was a case, plenty of handles to handle the bass easily on doors or in and out of the car.

My last bag cost me 3 times more, lasted 10 years but started to give me problems right on the first month...
I believe this one worth much more than it costs but only time and abuse will tell. Let me say that for the price paid, if it lasts in a good working condition for 5 or 6 years, than it has already worth it.

Overall, the bag is tick enough to protect your bass. It has enough space to store note sheets, the bow and various accessories.
I must say it is not the most comfortable bag to move the bass around; perhaps the handles are not in the best position and you need to keep my harms lifted quite a lot if I want to carry it, which is quite tiring (I am 1,76 m tall).
The wheels are helpful; however, one came off and I cannot use them anymore.
I have contacted Thomann and I received great customer support, even though the solution provided does not work for me as I have to ship the bag to Germany which means stay without it for several weeks and I cannot do so
