A gig bag (or gigbag) is a padded, soft-sided bag used for the storage and transport of musical instruments, most commonly a guitar or bass. While gig bags are lighter and easier to carry, they offer much less protection than padded or hard shell cases.

A gig bag is a great way to save space and protect your guitar from scratches and dings. Gig bags are good in situations where you know your guitar will be reasonably safe such as small commutes - otherwise a hardcase will offer more durable protection.

Look for a waterproof covering and padding that protects the sides, back and top of the guitar - but remember, no amount of padding will protect the guitar from damage if something hits it forcefully enough or at a critical angle.
