I have had this bag for quite a long time and after a lot of gigs, I can say it is definitely worth the price. The only thing is that the bottom part could have been a bit tougher, as the cymbals hit the floor directly, and the fabric is not very thick, so you have to be careful when "unloading". The "fast bag" concept is fantastic, specially for those gigs where time to set up is limited, and the backpack straps are an absolute must for me. Very nice product.
