Thanks for the review. I Have the same/similar concern with the Mono M80 I bought- the dividers don't reach all the way to the bottom so that about an inch and a half of each cymbal at the bottom is able to make contact with the other cymblas...why would they design it that way? I love the overall bag quality though
Hi! I had ordered this bag once and what really put me off was that the padding - which is actually THE main thing protecting your cymbals from the eventual drop by decreasing the accelerative force on the cymbal - was only sewn in such that when I put in my two 22" cymbals, both of the came to rest not on the padding, but besides the foam padding which means that they would have unpadded contact with any surface if the bag doesn't fall onto the plastic shoe downside by mere chance. I was wondering if you knew any bag that featured paddings that did not have pocket-like sides where cymbals can (and will) slide into so they'e not actually protected. Thanks and nice review!
Looks good. Did not last. The bottom of the bag didn't protect the cymbals after 6 months. The cymbals cut through the bottom of the bag and nothing was protecting them. The small plastic piece that is supposed to protect the cymbals isn't nearly big enough. Many bags have this problem. It's a simple case of planned obsolescence. The bag was highly recommended and didn't last any longer than any other soft bag I've ever had. If you really want to protect your cymbals a hard case is the only way to go.
No divider for the hi hats either. Why. Just why.

Always, always put a folded cloth under every single cymbal you carry in your bag, it doesn't matter the quality of the bag.
