Fender FB620 Electric Bass Gig Bag, Black

Haven’t used it yet, but this is a nice bag. Definitely worth the $60. It seems well made and sufficiently sturdy. It’s thickly padded all around the sides with strips of rubber for extra protection and support. The front and back have less cushion, but with the very cushiony neck brace, that doesn’t seem like it would be an issue. Maybe don’t check this bag, but if you happened to, say, fall down the stairs, your guitar would likely survive.

I am just starting to learn bass and guitar and wanted something to protect my instruments when going back and forth from lessons. I would have loved to get a hard case, but it was out of my budget. Enter the Fender FE20. I admit I was first attached by the Fender name, especially since my Bass is a Fender. I wanted something that I felt confident would fit my Bass. I wasn't expecting much, but was blown away with the thickness of the padding, the neck cradle, and the pockets. Every musician knows that there's a lot of little stuff that you need to carry around, especially your pencil. This bag fit snugly and the pocket design was more than I expected. My first Bass suffered because the bag it came with had no padding whatsoever and I wanted to make sure I didn't go through that again. I would highly recommend getting this bag.I enjoyed this bag so much that when I ordered a different bag for my guitar I was incredibly disappointed and planned to return the bag at my expense and buy another one of these to carry my guitar. I was overjoyed when I discovered that this model also had one sized for an electric guitar.The only disappointments I could find are that this bag fits so snugly that my heavily padded strap fits kinda awkwardly. Also, the backpack straps are nice, but you have to be very careful of the added length above your head, especially when going through doorways.I hope you find this review useful in helping you make a decision if this bag is right for you.

FB620 is a perfect fit for a Japanese Jazz Aerodyne electric bass (all black, no pick guard). Solid value for the price, solid storage and good quality that should last a while. Some flaws but not that bad, see pros/cons below.PROS- Solid construction, quality materials, looks good; nice clearance for oversized tuner keys- lightweight, not heavy at all; sturdy standing upright without guitar- slim profile, especially with the straps zipped away inside their pocket- thick metal zippers and toggles for main openings; small back zippers for smaller pockets- soft black interior with movable velcro thick neck cradle to position just right- inside patches to protect string ends from ripping velour- thick 20mm padding along interior edges; interior rubber slot for bout strap button- exterior rubber bumper guards at both headstock tip and bout bottom for added protection- zipper closure on should strap pockets so dont fall out, hidden away if folded in- hidden open pocket above strap pocket you can use to "lift" bag vertically (maybe)- front pocket is thick, zipper closure, with handing interior pockets for lots of small items- breathable foam exterior padding attached to case back for more comfort while wearing on shoulders- padded ergo shoulder straps, adjustable length with metal carbide closures- thick foam side handle, waterproof vinyl exterior with rivets on either end for strength- small name tag slot/window for traveling- solid seller, came in padded box within 2 days free shipping (said would take two weeks!)- amazing value at $60, don't buy 610 or thinner Fender bags for same price (or more)CONS- overall a bit loose in the front and back; sides are fine; might fit a Precision tighter- interior padding of back and front surfaces are 1/2 as thick (10mm max) as edge foam padding- neck cradle leave gap between headstock and back padding, can feel when back closed- besides shoulder straps no dedicated handles to lift bag when standing upright (front or back)- bag wrinkles (doesn't not fold) while empty standing upright because of thinner front/back padding- maybe a carry-on but not check-in luggage as-is, needs more additional padding for front/back- oversized shipping box and bubble padding overkill, but still nice- if over $100 buy a hardcase or gator gig bag insteadOverall, great Fender case for light travel, casual gigs and everyday movement, shoulder straps are nice and comfortable. When guitar in the case, I would fill the gap between headstock with folded terry towels or the bubble wrap from the shipping box just to play it safe. I would also add bubble wrap whole headstock, back surface of body and along the front neck/strings for added safety to shore up thinner padding in those areas, fill in the loose areas better. However, for hardcore gigging or checking-in as luggage on a plane get a hard case or a better quality $$$ gator/mono bag.

Great bag. Like the extra pockets. Well made. Fits my Fender Precision Bass.

The one I use before is the bag i brought from guitar center. Since I got a new bass for practice, I purchase this bag to carry it around for flight or lessons.Pros:It is much thicker than the one I used before and I can feel the thickness inside of the bag which give me a protected feeling. I dropped my bass from bag before so it really solve my ptsd.The material feel very stable and nice quality. I always have no doubt about fender instruments. But it is surprise that they make nice bass bag too.There is two place for information card. It is nice as I can insure my stuff. I am also the person that draw nice cards for these.There's a place for neck protection. That's pretty nice. All my previous ones except luggage type don't have it. (Maybe I just buy bad stuffThere's a big section rubber protection on top of the bag too. I like it.Cons (or just my opinion):I don't know if this is for all people but I can not hold the sounds that formboard rubbed together. Those "jirajira" sound makes me having a headache unfortunately this bad have these sound. I can still accept it as it only happen when I am putting my bass in...I also hope they can have a band that connects the neck protection thing so my bass won't have a chance to move around.And I wish they have a small pouch on the neck place like I had on my previous bad so I don't have to bend down for stuff. I usually put my tuner battery and other often needed stuff in there so I have to get use to it.I also hope they make the outside bag a little wider because I wish I can put more stuff in.Overall it is a very very nice bag. I am looking forward to carry it around for many things. As a person go out alot, cases aren't very convenient. And this bag solve my problem. I will also decorate it a bit more in the future. I hope I can be those famous band one day that have all these stickers on their bag hh.
