At first i was deciding between the warwick rockbag and RDM slim. But i got the gator in the end cause the shop where i wanted to get the rockbag closed when i got there. And now i'm not comfortable with the single sling. And after what arctichawk said, i'm having second thoughts of getting the warwick. So are there any other gig bags that you highly recommend?
A couple of things to take note of
1) I'm not very tall
2) I've got narrow shoulders
3) My arms are not very muscular
That's about all i guess.
However, other than slightly more paddings right, the bag is not very carry-friendly. The two straps (bag pack style) are quite highly placed, so it makes you awkwardly tall when you carry the bassbag in bag pack style. If you loosen it xtremely low, the bass would dangle and incline backwards. ie when u stand on an escalator, it would hit the person's face on the next step.

Next would be the carry handles. The front carry handle will lose its sponge quite soon and on the whole.. it feels like carrying a grass cutter.. you get what I mean/

Last, the single sling is hooked at a weird position so when u sling it like a rifle rite, the swivel is actually on your shoulder, so its quite painful to do a rifle sling.

Yeah just my opinion. You might find a better way to carry with the bag, my experiments with the bag might be limited. From what I see, your gator looks more carry friendly abeit with thinner protection.
