Is this bag padded enough for a hollowbody guitar?

It has thick padding and a soft interior lining, which cushions the body and neck against knocks in transit. It is a soft bag, so it will not protect against heavy impact or a crush the way a hard case does.

Does it work as a backpack?

Yes. The adjustable backpack straps let you carry the guitar on your back and keep both hands free, which helps on stairs, trains and long walks to a venue.

Will a hollowbody guitar fit?

Protec lists it for electric guitars including hollowbody models. Check your guitar's body depth and lower-bout width against the bag's interior before buying, since deep hollowbody bodies are the tightest fit.

Is it light enough to carry all day?

At about 3.96 lb the bag itself is light, so most of the weight you carry is the guitar. The backpack straps spread that load across both shoulders.

Does it come with a warranty?

No. Protec lists no written warranty for this model, so keep your purchase record and inspect the seams and zippers when it arrives.

The gig bag only. No strap, tools or accessories are included beyond the bag and its built-in backpack straps.

Our take on the Protec Gold Series Hollowbody Electric Guitar Gig Bag

The Protec Gold Series CF229 is a soft gig bag for hollowbody and other electric guitars, built around a tough nylon shell with thick padding and a soft interior lining. Adjustable backpack straps let you carry it hands-free, and at under 4 lb it adds little weight to the guitar. It sits in the padded-gig-bag class rather than the hard-case class, so it protects against knocks and dust on the move but not against heavy impact or crushing. It suits players who gig locally and want light, comfortable transport without a rigid case.
