RE: Dragging Instruments



Yeah, what he said. The top is tall enough so you can get either right
angle cables or one of Hosa cable's 'mixer snakes'- any cable that
doesn't stick up too high- and keep them plugged in. The inside is just
a giant huge space. I have stuff super-lock velcro'd to the inside
walls, and I use the back rack rails for a power supply. It also has a
cut out in the back lid to send your cables out to your pedals if you
want. 
The front is 6 spaces- you can get them bigger- and the back & top are
10. It is big though- you'd want wheels. And help lifting it.
