will a Yamaha MX49 case work for the Nord Wave?

Post by chimney chop »

i need one for tour in a week and Sweetwater etc are sold out at the moment.

was looking at the MX49 but it has smaller interior dimensions.
my Wave was pretty loose in the Nord 49 bag so i was wondering if it still might work.
thanks!

MX49:
Internal Length 32"
Internal Width 11.73"

Nord 49:
Internal Width 34"
Internal Length 13"

You might have swapped the width/lenght labels. But it will not fit (depending on the measures) :roll:

I did mention that the Nord wave is pretty loose in the wave case

that's why I asked in case someone tried it and it happened to work despite the dimensions

why not simply measure your Wave to see if it will fit in a 32" wide case?

it's a loose fit and the measurements don't seem to be true to specifications

He didn't mention to try the wave bag. Just try another case (custom build?).

i didn't ask about a case.

i'm already having a case made but i leave for tour next week, it won't be ready and i need a temporary solution.

i reacted negatively to Pablo's initial response because he was essentially making fun of me with the "facepalm"

he was saying, wow what a dumb question. dumb questions are so rarely asked here and here's my chance to use that emoji i've been wanting to use.

i felt attacked when i just wanted some friendly help.

Sorry about my circular response too.
But I understand your situation better now.

I guess it's a matter of going to a musical instrument shop and try some different (universal) bags?

Sizes are always hard to compare on a website.

Good luck with your search!
