This case is a great buy! The seventy dollar price tag was steep for me when I got it, but my gig bag was dying fast, and I needed something to keep my Rogue VB-100 safe. My first response to this case was shock at it's size and weight. It could fit my custom 35" scale five string! When empty, it's also very top heavy. With the VB-100 in it, it lays relitively even. I used this case to bring my bass to Orlando, FL (by plane) and then back to Albany, NY (by plane). The case had no more than minor sratches and the bass inside was untouched. This case has provided great protection for my violin bass, and is worth every penny and more!

Hardshell case not as hard/thick as one would expect. However for the price it serves it's purpose. My Hofner Icon Series bass fits very snug in case. I have to apply pressure to the top half of the case in order to secure the latches. I would not use this case for an original high end Hofner model. I have the Hofner Icon Series Vintage Violin Bass.

I purchased this case a little over a year ago and so far it's performed well. My bass (no-name brand, made in Japan) fits snugly in it and the accessories compartment is good sized. I didn't have any problems with a bad odor. Only complaint so far is lack of padding and tiny amount of clearance between the bass and the top of the case. I always make sure it's either standing up or stacked on top if I'm transporting it somewhere.

This TKL case is adequately sturdy and the inside is nicely molded to fit Rogue the violin bass. Some reviewers have complained about smell. My case smelled fine, though I have had a problem with other TKL cases -- I find two or three sheets of fabric softener left in the closed case for a few days does the trick. Another reviewer complained about the top of the bass being too close to the case. Maybe there's more than one case floating around out there, because there's a good 3" between the top of the headstock and my case. The only real complaint I have is that the cost is high compared to the price of the bass, but, hey, if you want protection.....

The Rogue Violin bass guitar fits nice and tight into the case. The lining of the case (top and bottom) seems to protect the guitar very well and the flapped pouch is more than adequate to hold the strap and cord(s). The case arrived with 4 cosmetic 1/8 inch gouges in the vinal side covering. Other than the minor cosmetic issues, it seems to be a well constructed hard shell case that I would recommend, if own or plan to purchase the Rogue Violin Bass.
