Hi folks!
I'm looking for a suitable cover for my new Pignose G60VR amp and I thought some of you here on the list might be able to point me in the right direction.
So far, I've been unable to dig up amp covers, in general, from on-line vendors, and I don't even see them on the Pignose web site. I checked with a good local music store here in Baltimore which sells a wide variety and wide range of amps, but they don't stock covers or even cases for any amps. The sales associate told me that some amp manufacturers make covers fitted for specific amps they produce, and that he could order these when requested, but that to his knowledge Pignose doesn't even make covers for its amps. I plan on contacting Pignose and suggesting another product line!
I mean, I think ALL amps should have at least covers made for them and should be sold with them. Every amp I've seen thus far is fairly open to the elements, especially in the rear, and I would think some sort of barrier to use during transportation would be essential. I certainly would like to protect my investment as best I can!
John Watts suggested having a cover made for this amp. This is not a bad idea, but I'm looking for a quicker and easier fix. Seems to me that there should be a cover out there somewhere that will work for me. Even a cover that is just a little too large (a little too small won't work) might be relatively easy to modify to fit reasonably well.
Any suggestions or thoughts?
My thanks in advance!
