Road Runner

collapse expand iconDescription

This RRMBA17 ABS molded acoustic bass case from Road Runner is designed to fit most acoustic basses. The molded case has a non-scratch, thicker pile, plush-lined interior and padded neck brace with two accessory compartments—one covered and one open. To give extra protection to your special instrument, the exterior is a hardened, roadworthy shell. Other features include a tongue-and-groove valance, rubber feet, three riveted latches—the middle one has a lock & key mechanism—and an offset handle for easier transportation.

The soft, plush interior protects your acoustic bass from scratches and nicks, plus Road Runner uses a special, eco-friendly, dye-free material, which eliminates the release of polluting byproducts into the environment.

Light, but solid.

Over the years I have had many, many guitar cases. Some suited their purpose well while others were left wanting. Many of the so called, "special", "plus" or "limited edition" guitars had cases made specifically for the guitar in question. I have had no long term success with these cases. The cases made by the major guitar makers such as Gibson and Fender seemed to be the cases that you can count on. They made these cases that way to protect their precious guitars as they shipped and you could be sure that you could get a lifetime of protection for your investment. However, after the pasting years wore out those original cases they had to replaced. In years passed, replacement cases were pretty "hit or miss" in finding solidly built cases that would last through the years. I have found that "Road Runner" ABS Molded Cases to fit the bill for both "hard knocks" out on the road and great longevity when storing the guitar over the long haul. With the acoustic bass especially I need a case that is both "Roadie" proof and able to keep the weathering effects of the road off my bass. With the price of equipment constantly heading skyward you can trust your guitar or bass the Road Runner ABS Molded Cases.

I would never purchase this product again.

The first case was warped on the headstock end and wouldn't close properly, so another case was pulled out of the box, which I purchased and looked okay, but when I got home, my acoustic bass not only didn't fit in it correctly, but when you open and close the case, the seams don't line up properly and you have to push the bottom and lid together from the sides to close properly. Case is really flimsy too. So I returned the case the following week to get my gift card refunded.

    I purchased a Road Runner bass case which proved to be too large for the bass I own. South Austin GC staff exchanged product to a more suitable RR case immediately and without problems. Good case, great service.

    Sounded like a great case, but the real thing disappoints. For example, the retaining strap broke on the second day. It looked like it was attached with bubblegum.

    Fits a Ovation CEB44X-7C just fine., This bass has the turtle shaped back on the guitar and is 5" thick at the thickest point. Lid closes with no compression on the guitar but the guitar does not move around in the case.

    Yes it will but be a little deep. The Schecter is not considered an "acoustic" bass.

    1) Yes it will but be a little deep. The Schecter is not considered an "acoustic" bass. 2) I would need to know what bass. It will be the same situation. A thin line is not an acoustic.
