I have considered the Mono but mega bucks.
Shall check out the Fender.
I bought the Ritter double electric gig bag and I'm very happy with it. It was about £50 last year, not sure if the price has changed much.
I too was taking 2 guitars plus cases to gigs and just storing them away was a pain. The Ritter is pretty sturdy and has decent storage. I generally only move my strat and tele in it but have braved my Les Paul in the front section on occasion.
I went through 2 of the fender ones with snapping straps and burst zips before buying the mono
I think it's been going for 5 years or so and I'm out nearly every weekend and rehearsals once a week
I wouldn't put a les Paul or an SG in anything less tbh
I can't justify the Mono on guitar protection, it's never going to have more than a grands worth in it, but snapping straps would be annoying. Saturday gone to Saturday coming I'll have had 3 gigs and 2 rehearsals so I definitely need something robust for the amount I'll be doing. Perhaps I need to save some gig money and just get the good one. Would be neater for around the house as well.
Would it fit a Midtown in as well do you think?
I have a separate bag for 335 size
These days i'd rather carry 2 separate gig bags
I'm not a fan of gig bags for Gibson guitars, especially semi-solids or hollow bodies. Having driven a van over my Les Paul in its case after a gig back in the day - it was in a Bulldog full flight case and it survived without even going out of tune - accidents easily happen when you are tired, and a good hard case is a much better idea, IMHO.
Yeah, this is for Fender types only, I only have one Gibson, a Midtown which will stay in it's hard case. Trouble is I'm too lazy to take G style guitars to gigs most of the time, I always need to put it back in the hardcase between sets and look after them a bit more. Whereas my Tele can look after itself. It can be leaned up anywhere and if I drop it I'm more worried about the floor.
Plus you can fold a gig back up and put it out of the way, hard cases are so cumbersome.
