D'Addario Launches New Backline Electric Guitar and Bass Cases

D'Addario has unveiled the all-new Backline Electric Guitar and Bass Cases: premium transport solutions designed to deliver instrument protection, user comfort, and accessory organization, all without the bulk of a traditional hard case.

Ideal for rehearsals, gigs, sessions, and travel, Backline Electric Guitar and Bass Cases are ruggedly built, with climate-smart tech and thoughtful storage features, in a single streamlined design that moves like a gig bag and weighs less than seven pounds. The detachable Breakaway Bag with Auto Lock security keeps accessories organized and close at hand so you can easily move essential gear to and from the stage, while water-resistant materials, reinforced construction, and shock-absorbing padding help protect instruments from just about anything a life on the road might throw at you.

At the center of the design is a Humidipak™ Climate-Control Neck Cradle, which houses integrated two-way humidity control to help keep guitars and basses performing at their best while in transit or storage, no matter what environment you’re playing in.

With balanced ergonomic straps, a cushioned back panel, and premium protection throughout, Backline Cases are built to go wherever musicians do.
