I agree and buy any I can find for sale used.

Can you tell me which are the mid-level ones? Thanks!

So Amazon pricing bounces all over the place and it can be hard to know what’s what based on price. The 20 series is as nice as the good GS mini type case, if not better. Available in lots of sizes and super affordable. There are two types of 30 series and frankly, the better one is almost overbuilt. Extra security straps over the zippers and such make it crazy secure, but more work to get in and out.

This particular one is exceptional and the one I think of as the middle:

Music Area WIND 20 Series Acoustic Bag - Green (WIND20-DA-GRN) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MS5VVYT..._2aJZDbZWHX2FN

This one is the higher end one and I think is almost overkill.
Music Area TANG 30 Series Acoustic Bag - Black (TANG30-DA-BLK) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MY6PVQ8..._x5IZDbB8NABSM

The higher priced one is also amazing and at least at this moment $50-100 cheaper than it sometimes is with Amazon’s dynamic pricing. Free returns for Prime members so worth a try. It’s the only bag I use for my electrics and my grab and go steady for my acoustics. I’ve had mono and both levels of Reunion Blues and these are every bit as good for my money and cost way, way less.

Without a doubt the best bags. Keep checking the prices, they change dramatically. I bought multiple 30 series for less than $70 and they are way better than any other. The classical is a bit on the smaller side though

My wife uses a Gator Transit gig bag for her bass guitar. She looked around and found one on sale a few years ago. They are fantastic, and the straps are really comfortable. A couple of guys from church use these too, and they like them a lot.
