Nord Lead A1 bag

[maurizio]

One of the things i love of my shiny new A1 (actually, my first Nord product is that is small.
But i do not find a light gig bag that fit it perfectly. Clavia suggest the 61 key bag, for example.
Any suggestion ?

I use the GB73 with my NS2-SW73 and it fits like a glove -- not any ordinary glove, but one of those latex stretchy ones. Practically need a shoehorn to get the keyboard into it.

This will NOT be the same for you with an NLA1 and a Nord 61-npte gig bag. The instrument will be flopping around in there to some degree.

Your best bet may be to search by measurements and perhaps something will turn up online. Also, professional seamstresses and upholsterers, especially Auto/Marine ones, may be equipped to custom make something for you which WILL fit your A1 like a glove.

On Thomann's website there's now a page for the new Nord Lead A1' Softcase http://www.thomann.de/it/clavia_nord_so ... ead_a1.htm, but if you check the Nord's website there's only the Electro 61 bag in the A1's accessories webpage.
Is that a real new product?

I got an Alesis gig bag which fits my NL2 perfectly, don't know which model it is for originally though, I asked in a music store and they got it out for me.

Well, a while ago Clavia support confirmed me that a A1 bag was coming, so it may be very well real !

On Nord's website, they have a bag listed in the accessories section--it fits the A1, but it also fits several other units, including the Electro with 61 keys, which is about four inches longer.

So it looks like it will work with the A1, but it will be a little bit bigger than it needs to be.

The photo on Thomann's website is clearly the same bag; in fact is it the same photo (look at the wrinkles and shadows). It is possible that they are using the wrong photo, and there is a new product...but I'm guessing not.

I'm looking for a bag as well, and I've not found anything that does not have a little extra room. I'm likely going to go for the SKB hard case:

I have the larger version of the same case for my Electro SW73, and apart from it being bigger and heavier than a bag, I like it a lot.

I don't know about availability/timing, but can confirm that an A1-specific bag has been added to the list of Nord products.

Bless,

Just got a mail exchange with Thomann. They confirm that is actually the Nord Lead A1 specific bag, and that is available.
Just ordered it, i'll let you know :->

Would the NL2X will fit in it?

[maurizio]

Do not think so: Thomann gave this as internal mesures: 802 x 92 x 260 mm
