K&M 18846

This carrying bag offers no protection, simply a canvas bag to carry your Baby Spider stand. Quality seems ok, size is just right - needs a small amount of manoeuvring to get the stand in nicely and close the zipper. I put some padding on the bottom and wrapped the handle with soft fabric and stage tape to make carrying easier on my palms. The balance of the bag when the stand is inside tilts to the base of the stand so keep that in mind when picking it up (and make sure you fold the stand arms and push them to the mic stand plate when folded to shift the weight of the arms for counterbalance). I also keep a small cable&pedal bag inside to balance it out further. Use this bag only for smoother rides, it will not withstand extended gigging or touring. If you can, pad the inside with something to keep your stand from scratches/dents.

This bag fits the Baby Spider, sure.

But I’ve never been impressed with the K&M carry bag quality. The fabric is medium weight and the zippers feel like they will die one day.

And most annoyingly, the baby spider is weighted more heavily down one end, meaning the carry straps don’t balance it at all!

The result is the bag ends up vertical more often than not, hurting my shoulder and putting extra strain on the stitches.

Small carry handle straps would be a nice addition, but they are not on this product.

I’d look for alternative bags, even if this bas is a perfect fit.
