I needed a light, sturdy, well-padded but not too heavy case for my Nord Piano 2 HA88. Now there is a cool bright red Nord soft case for this board, but it sells for about $500. Way too much. So here come the Gator folks with this new G-PG-88SLIM. Here are the notable features - 1. This case perfectly fits the Nord Piano 2 (50 3/4" Lg). 2. It is luxuriously lined and padded on the inside (including the well-padded velcro adjustable straps) to softly cradle my lovely Nord. The side padding is a full 1" thick and markedly firm to protect the board from inevitable bumps. 3. It features a very durable exterior of sturdy abrasion-resistant nylon that looks to be capable of surviving many scrapes during travel. 4. It includes zippered storage space with a flex net for my music folder and two attached velcro retainer straps for cables. There is also a nifty fleece-lined pocket to slide in an electronic tablet (7 1/2" x 9 1/2 "). 5. It has a lightweight elastic-edged rain cover stored in its own zipper compartment should I exit a gig to a downpour. All the edges of this cover are nicely bound. 6. It includes several straps: a hook-on adjustable shoulder strap with a pad for your shoulder which works great for longer transport walks and two adjustable backpack straps which you can attach to the case to carry it on your back (very tricky should you lose your balance backwards!). 8. It weighs in at only 9 lbs. which with the 40 lb. Nord makes the bundle about as heavy as as I would ever want to carry for any distance. In addition all zippers/zipper pulls, exterior handles and lugs seem to be sturdily made and attached to take reasonable applied loads during normal use. Would this bag work for shipping my Nord as luggage? Nope - I'd want a lockable hard case for that. But for safely hauling the Nord to practices in my car and for the many weekend worship services that I play in it is absolutely perfect. The beautiful Nord . . . well protected. Job well done, Gator. You've earned my five stars on this one.
