Product Information
Full details
The Chord 173.131UK Guitar Gig Bag is an essential transport solution for musicians who own 3/4 size or travel-sized classical guitars. It offers a balanced combination of protection and portability with its water-resistant nylon exterior and 10mm padded lining, making it ideal for students and gigging players on the go. While it provides excellent convenience and storage for accessories, it is a soft-shell case and therefore offers less impact resistance than a rigid hard-shell flight case.

FAQs
Will this fit a full-size classical guitar?
No, this specific model is designed exclusively for 3/4 or travel-sized guitars.
Is this bag waterproof?
The nylon fabric is water-resistant, meaning it can handle light rain, but it is not intended to be submerged or used in heavy downpours.
How do I clean the exterior?
Simply wipe down the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the nylon.
Can I check this in as luggage on an airplane?
No, this is a soft-shell gig bag and does not provide the structural protection required for checked airline luggage.
Does it have a space for my music stand?
The pockets are designed for small accessories like tuners, cables, and sheet music. A full-size folding music stand will likely be too large for the external pockets.
Troubleshooting
Zip feels stiff or sticks when opening
Clear any threads or debris from the zipper track and apply a light touch of graphite or silicone-based zipper lubricant.
Bag feels unbalanced while carrying
Adjust the backpack strap length equally and ensure the guitar is properly centered inside the internal hook support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your instrument is protected, always place the guitar into the bag neck-first to utilize the internal support hook, then secure the body. This bag is specifically compatible with 3/4 sized or travel-style classical guitars. To maintain the bag, keep the zippers clear of debris and wipe the nylon exterior with a damp cloth if it becomes dusty. Store the bag in a dry environment when not in use to maintain the integrity of the internal padding.
