Gig Bag for Wessex Wyvern

Post by cktuba »

I have a Pro-Tec Platinum bag that is a little too narrow at the bottom and is starting to rip. I know Wessex makes bags for their instruments. But what other bags are people using for the Wyvern?

A Miraphone bag for the 1293 C would probably work. They’d be my first choice for a non-custom bag, if you can find one.

I have a Gard 62-MSK for my Wyvern and it's a near perfect fit. Super protective gig bag as well.

How does it work as a backpack? I have a Protec Bag for the Meinl Weston 20 and it constantly whacks me in the back of the legs when I walk. The Miraphone bag that came with my sons 186 is much better as a backpack but if I could get something for less I would be happy. I haven't had a chance to try a MW bag.
As amateur as they come...I know just enough to be dangerous.

I haven't had any issues with it. It sits up higher on my back than my old protec bag did. Nothing crazy where you need to duck to get through doors, but it doesn't hit my legs at all.
