We've designed the M80 Series from the inside out to be the lightest, thinnest, strongest, most versatile carrying solutions for the professional musician. A hybrid case featuring an ultra light laminated foam shell with strategically placed ABS panels, providing an unmatched level of protection for your most prized investments. Smart features like the Clip/Tuck straps make for easy airport travel, while the streamlined profile helps you slip through the crowds. Our innovative Neck brace design provides a level of protection worthy of the finest instruments. (It works so well we've patented it). Your guitar quickly straps in and remains stabilized during transport. The headstock is suspended inside the case, saving the guitar from impacts that could otherwise snap the neck. Well, we dare you to try. We build our cases to military specs, using only high-test materials with extreme resistance to abrasion and the elements. Inside, the plush lining protects delicate custom finishes. So your guitar rides first class while you launch an urban assault. These measurements represent the inner capacity of the case. If you are unsure about the fit for your guitar, make sure it does not exceed any of the maximum dimensions shown just to be safe. Fits standard body electric guitars including Fender Tele/Strat, Gibson, Les Paul, Ibanez, ESP. Features: Headstock: Neck brace absorbs horizontal impact, keeping headstock safely suspended. Tuning Pegs are kept away from the sides of the case minimizing de-tuning from side impact Hi-density foam bumpers divert vertical impact out and around the case, away from the strap pin Integral ABS panels deliver hard case protection at a fraction of the weight. This case is designed to fit standard body electric guitars including Fenders like Teles and Strats, Gibsons like Les Pauls and SGs, ESP and many others.

At this point I assume you're familiar with the specs so I'll go directly to my impressions...This Mono case is crazy expensive but after lots of research I decided that this is the case I wanted protecting my multi-thousand dollar basses. Now that I've been using it for several months I'm very happy with my decision. I have a couple of other gig bags that I've used in the past and they're okay for keeping my basses protected in my studio but when I'm leaving the house and putting my babies at risk I always go for the Mono.Pros:Protection. The ABS inserts, padding and other features seriously protect your investment.Neck block. As the name implies it holds the neck firmly and protects it from shock.Style. It looks cool. I've had quite a few double-takes and comments since I started carrying the Mono.Storage. While it's not got a huge volume (see below) it does have numerous pockets and straps to hold cords and accessories. NiceCons.Shoulder Straps. The straps on this case are of such a design and length that even at it's lowest settings the bass rides significantly higher on my shoulders than other cases. When I use the Mono I tend to bump into overhead light fixtures and door frames. I'm 6 foot 4 so this may not be an issue for you but I find it annoying.Storage. As noted above there are lots of pockets and straps but the total volume of storage is just a little less than I would like. If it had just a tad more I would be able to travel to and from gigs with no more than this bag. As it is I have to care another small bag for the few pedals that won't quite fit in the Mono.Price. It seems like you either pay 20 bucks for a crappy gig bag or a couple hundred for a nice one. There's really not much in between. This bag is nice but I don't know that it's ten times nicer than a standard bag.ConclusionNow the magic question - would I buy it again? Yes I would but I must say if somebody comes out with a $99 semi-solid bag Mono would have some competition.
