Gig bags. Huh?

Why are soft cases for guitars also known as gig bags? As I was packing up for rehearsal yesterday I was thinking that just about the only time I wouldn't use my soft case is when taking my guitar to a gig because of the risk of damage. In fact I only bought the hardcase for taking it to gigs.

I am confused.

wot a rubbish post.

i use a very thick soft case all the time. tis fine, and alot smaller and easier to move around.

Bo.
 
The soft case that came with my Godin is a really good one (mmm... soft furry lining) but I still don't trust it to handle my guitar rattling round in the back of a van. Marshall 4*12 slamming into it would make easy work of a gig bag, even a good one.
 
Mike are you now posting comments on your own posts?

Kevin is right if you put " Rockbandless " in google you only get one answer back. You may have invented a new word.

Andy.
 
you should call your new band "rockbandless" so you would alwys be top- infact the only thing, on google.
 
People would call you Rock B and Less. Then is would become Rock B + MC Less
 
If it's not a word it really should be.

And I'm allowed to respond to comments about my posts, that's the point. :)
 
Can I post comments about your posts? I think the more pertinent question is "why - pronounced "Whiiiiiiiiaaaa?" in a Borat stylee - are gig bags called "gig bags"? Do they contain an entire gig? Can you get all the necessary elements into them? If so, are you not in fact mistaking a guitar case for the Tardis?"

You can drive a truck over one of my flight cases. It will smash it to smithereens though.
