New Bass Case – Rabbath’case©

Double bassist Brian Roessler recently sent me a link to this new double bass case design by Olivier Rabbath from New York weighs only 35 pounds and utilizes a suspender system to hold the bass in place. IT will cost you $4500, but it may save you a lot of flight headaches. Check it out at the Rabbath’case© website (it is available for purchase now), and check out the images below to get a closer look at how the case works.

Is it just me or is that bag an awful fit?
