    Do you think the price is worth it? What other bags will do the trick?

      Don't bother with another brand. This bag is built like a tank and is worth every penny. Go with another bag and you'll replace it every 6-12 months. Trust me.

      Totally with you on this. I’ve seen comments from people saying they broke it almost immediately. I’m thinking what are you putting your poor bag through? lol.

      Lol… this *bag* is built like a tank…
      The Gator case for $179 is way more tanklike and cool, sorry. It’s nice but no way I’m paying for that bag.

      @@justinTime077 For sure, a Gator is much better if you're doing a lot of travel. Maybe overkill for most though, myself included.

    The small pockets I believe was made for exactly like you said. Keep the carabiners on the lower loop to lock in your zippers and use a Velcro tie to secure the top section of the iPad holder. This sets your gear flush with the pocket. By making both sides similar, you could place it either side.

      Hey, I thought that I had replied, but I am not seeing my response here. Sorry if this is a duplicate, but you can check out my "FORSCORE 2020" video or "Using an iPad for Sheet Music". They both go over the setup in detail!

      It’s pretty tall, I think it would stick out into the feet area, but I haven’t tried! Maybe they have measurements posted on some airline website?

    It doesn't last too long. It's perfect for loading things into your car, etc. But if you plan on walking with it a lot back and forth from rehearsal it will rip after a year.
