Slickbag EGH30

Slickbag EGH30 – Padded Guitar Bag for Strandberg Boden and Other Headless Guitars

The Slickbag Headless Guitar Gigbag is a premium protective guitar bag specifically designed for headless electric guitars. Updated for 2024, it accommodates a wide range of headless guitar models from manufacturers including Strandberg, Harley Benton, Kiesel, Skervesen and Canton, as well as unconventional guitar designs such as Klein and Teuffel Tesla. Featuring 30 mm high-density foam padding, additional protection beneath the main zip, reinforced areas and a soft plush interior, this gigbag provides reliable protection during transport, storage and everyday use.

One of its standout features is the removable angled bottom cushion, specially designed to accommodate the distinctive body shape of Strandberg Boden guitars. Combined with ergonomic padded shoulder straps, a spacious external accessory pocket and durable polyester construction, the Slickbag Headless Guitar Gigbag is an excellent choice for guitarists looking to transport their headless instruments comfortably and securely without the bulk of a traditional hard case.

Protection, Fit and Features

Specifically Designed for Headless Guitars

Headless guitars differ from conventional electric guitars thanks to their compact construction, absence of a traditional headstock and often unconventional, ergonomically shaped bodies. As a result, they do not always fit securely in standard electric guitar gigbags.

The Slickbag Headless Guitar Gigbag is specifically developed to provide improved support and fit for these instruments. The updated 2024 design accommodates a broad selection of headless guitars, including models from Strandberg, Harley Benton, Kiesel, Skervesen and Canton.

The bag has also been designed with more unusual guitar shapes in mind, including selected Klein and Teuffel Tesla models. As body dimensions and construction vary between instruments, always compare your guitar's measurements with the bag's internal dimensions before purchasing.

Removable Angled Bottom Cushion for Strandberg Boden

One of the most carefully considered features is the removable angled bottom cushion, designed to adapt the interior of the gigbag to the distinctive body shape of Strandberg Boden guitars.

The cushion provides tailored support for the lower section of the instrument, helping to minimise movement inside the bag during transport. When carrying other headless guitar models, the cushion can be removed to provide additional space and accommodate different body shapes.

This makes the Slickbag a versatile choice for guitarists who own or regularly use different headless instruments.

30 mm High-Density Foam Padding for Impact Protection

The gigbag features 30 mm thick high-density foam padding surrounding the instrument compartment. This padding helps absorb minor knocks and impacts that may occur when travelling between home, rehearsal rooms, recording studios and live venues.

The substantial padding offers greater protection than a conventional lightweight gigbag while retaining the convenience and portability of a soft guitar case.

It is particularly suitable for musicians carrying premium instruments where both transport comfort and reliable protection are important.

Additional 20 mm Protection Beneath the Main Zip

An additional 20 mm layer of padding beneath the main zip creates a protective barrier between the zip mechanism and the instrument.

This extra cushioning is especially useful when opening and closing the bag or moving the instrument during transport. It helps reduce the risk of pressure marks, scratches and unwanted contact with the harder components of the zip.

Reinforced Protection Around the Bottom and Bridge

The Slickbag Headless Guitar Gigbag incorporates reinforced areas around the bottom, bridge and other vulnerable sections of the instrument compartment. These reinforcements are particularly important for headless guitars, as their bridges frequently incorporate tuning mechanisms and other hardware near the lower edge of the body.

The reinforced construction complements the thick padding and helps protect both the guitar and the interior of the bag against wear during regular use.

Luxurious Plush Interior Protects the Guitar's Finish

The interior features a soft plush lining that provides a gentle contact surface for the guitar's body and neck. This helps minimise the risk of superficial scratches and scuff marks when placing the instrument inside the bag or removing it.

The plush interior also adds a premium feel and makes the gigbag particularly suitable for headless guitars with delicate or high-quality finishes.

Ergonomic Padded Shoulder Straps for Comfortable Carrying

The gigbag features generously padded, ergonomically designed shoulder straps that allow the guitar to be carried comfortably on your back. The straps help distribute the weight and make transport easier when walking, using public transport or travelling between rehearsals and performances.

A hook-and-loop fastening system helps keep the straps together when they are not in use. Sturdy carrying handles provide an alternative way to transport the instrument by hand.

Large External Pocket for Accessories

A spacious external pocket on the front of the bag provides convenient storage for essential guitar accessories, including cables, spare strings, picks, a tuner and small maintenance tools.

This practical storage solution makes it easier to keep your equipment organised and ensures that everyday accessories are readily available during rehearsals, travel and live performances.

Durable Polyester with Weather-Resistant Properties

The exterior is manufactured from heavy-duty polyester which, according to the manufacturer, features water-resistant, flame-retardant and tear-resistant properties. The material is designed to withstand regular transport while helping protect the instrument against everyday wear and moisture.

Black chrome-finished Slickbag zips and buckles complement the smart grey exterior, combining a professional appearance with durable hardware.

Although the material offers water resistance, the bag should not be regarded as completely waterproof during prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

Compact Design with Generous Internal Dimensions

The approximate internal dimensions are 85 cm in length, 31 cm across the upper body section and 37 cm across the lower body section. These proportions are designed for headless guitars, allowing instruments to be transported in a more compact bag than would normally be required for a conventional electric guitar.

Always check that your instrument's overall length, body width, thickness and any protruding hardware fit within the available internal space. The removable bottom cushion may affect the usable interior dimensions.
