Subject:RE: Korg BX-3 soft case?

I represent no one, have no interest in whether you buy a hard case or a soft case, or carry it in the original cardboard box. But as a fellow keyboardist, I would advise you to thoroughly check out the bag; because of the weight of that board (75lbs?), you'll need good solid corner stitching, and a reinforced base (if it has wheels). Bags are much better than they used to be, but today I'm actually returning the gig bag I bought for my NordStage because even though it's built really well, because of the size and weight of the board, I worry about bending the chassis while loading into the car. Since you love gig bags, you obviously are comfortable and experienced in how to load them into your vehicle; just check that stitching and base, common stress points in bags.

Good luck, and let us know what you find.

The last thing I want to do is argue over something like this. I have
expressed my opinion and I am sticking to it. I prefer soft cases. Many
soft cases have wheels. I am not a salesperson/retailer for Gator,
Speakeasy, Korg, HS, Roland or anyone. I am just an enthusiast who
loves the sound of the Hammond Organ. No more, no less. I would still
be very interested in a soft case for the BX-3.
