Doesn't fit Bass VI's

Heads up for any Bass VI owners, this case was (at least at the time I added it to my wish list, it doesn't appear to be anymore) listed as a "Certified Fit" case for a Squier Classic Vibe Bass VI. This isn't the case, one of the compartment walls doesn't quite allow the upper horn to fit. If you're using it for long-term storage, you could probably get away with removing the top strap button from the instrument, but I ended up going the DIY route and cutting a small chunk out of the compartment wall to make things work (see photo).

In terms of the product's quality, it's a typical Gator product and I have no complaints.

Wasn’t sure …

Well … seeing is believing. And placing guitar in the case closes the deal.

Product Details stated: "Universal design will fit your bass guitar" and that the
"molded hardshell … interior "molds" itself to your bass guitar, cushioning it in secure comfort."

After doing the research and finding few cases that specifically stated they would fit (except expensive Fender products) fit a Musicmaster, I was apprehensive.

Can't be sure if my guitar feels the "comfort", but I do!

This electric bass guitar case fits my 1976 Fender Musicmaster Bass like a glove. Looks sturdy and will satisfy my needs. Looks like it will provide adequate protection for my purposes. May not meet the rugged requirements for a touring professional, but it's good for me. Construction and locks seem quality made. Good price without the guitar brand name inflating the price. Spaces for small amount of gear (cables & strap) are secured when the case is closed.

Good case for a great price

I bought this case for my red 1982 Gibson Victory bass. It has a unique shape and will not fit in just any case. It fit so well I bought a second case for my 2016 Fender Dimension Natural finish bass.

I keep my more expensive bass guitars in cases for storage purposes and for the price it does the job well. If you are a touring musician you may want to spend so.e extra cash and get a higher quality case for the road.
