Description
The Chord LGB-W3 is a lightweight gig bag made to fit a western-style acoustic guitar. It uses a durable 600D Oxford cloth outer with reinforced piping and 5mm of padding, so your guitar gets a sensible layer of protection when you're carrying it between home, rehearsals and gigs. The bag is finished in black and keeps things simple, which is what most of us want from something we reach for every day.
On the front there's a full width zipped pocket, handy for cables, a capo, spare strings, a tuner or a folded lead sheet. For carrying, you get a padded carry handle for short hops and two shoulder straps so you can wear the bag on your back and keep both hands free. That's useful when you're loading in or moving through a busy venue.
We'd describe this as a transport and storage bag rather than a hard case, so it's best suited to everyday use and looking after your guitar at home. The 5mm padding and tough cloth strike a good balance between weight and protection. In the UK we tend to say gig bag, while in the US you'll also hear the term soft case for the same thing. If you want a light, no-fuss option for your western acoustic, the LGB-W3 does the job.
