Folks,
I need a new gig bag. By gig bag I mean a large holdall of some sort to carry leads, pedals, couple of guitar stands, spare battries etc.... gaffa tape ..pics, bottleneck..tuner etc.etc.
Any recommendations?

Maybe look at the bags drummers use?

They are usually pretty darn heavy duty and big enough for a gigantic pile of gear.

Depending on the size of the guitar stands, you could use a big tacklebox.

My buddy gave me a rack case a while back and since I don't have any rack gear, I throw all my stuff in it.

Or a Rubbermaid box from Wal-Mart. That's what I carry my drum hardware in when gigging with the other band.
