Lives up to expectations

I keep my Gibson Les Paul Junior Special in this bag. It has a good amount of padding to protect it, and the guitar fits in it well. The material it's made of seems tough enough, and the stitching seems to be of good quality.

The only issue I have with this gig bag is that when it arrived, it came with a strong odor something like old tires. Putting it outside in the sun for a few days has reduced the smell quite a bit.

Better than more expensive options

This light-weight gig bag is well made. The tag says it's "Hand Made with Pride in India". The exterior is made from very thick fabric, and the interior has a softer fabric with thick fabric protecting the tuners, headstock, pickups and bridge areas. The seams are rolled and covered with an rugged nylon strap material. The zippers are singled-stitched. The upper neck handle is thick molded plastic, and the side body handle is comfortable reinforced nylon. The adjustable back-pack straps are padded. All handles and straps use heavy-duty nylon strapping cross-stitched onto additional reinforcing straps that span the fabric and tie into the seams so all connection points are heavy-duty double nylon strap material. The upper neck handle also has rivets.

I recently bought a Musician's Gear 335 Style gig bag that cost more than this one, and it's nowhere near as nice. This has much thicker padding, and protects the edges and sides of the guitar better. It also has zipper pockets that close completely.
Playability and Feel

It's light.
Tone

Dark and kind of rough, like it can take some abuse.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Basic black, with purple-ish maroon piping around the pockets. Not my favorite color combo, but no big deal. It's a gig bag, not a fashion statement.

Great value for the money. I put an ES135 in it and it is good protection for the finish and frets. If you want to protect the tuners, etc., you will have to spend about 5 times as much.
