MONO Cymbal Bag (22" Max) ASH (M80-CY22-ASH)

Having purchased a poorly made (cheap) cymbal bag previously, it was time to trade up and invest in a better quality bag. In the end, I had narrowed it down to a few options before settling on this MONO bag based on my budget and my needs. I decided about a month ago to purchase this machine due to a combination of great features and a low price. I was looking for the following FEATURES in a bag, and this bag provides them I. - There are dividers. There are almost no limits to how high they can be. For me, this is good enough. I. - This way, the smaller cymbals are kept separate and safe. (Casual hat and It's a nice touch to have I*)r*br - The bottom has been reinforced. I eventually had to toss my last bag because the bottom of my cymbals wore through. I. - It is waterproof on the outside. As yet I haven't tested it in the rain, but I trust it will do what it's described to do. It's - Despite having a solid handle, it has a backpack strap so that you can carry it in several ways. It really is better to use both backpack straps if you're going to travel a long way with a heavy bag. I. - It is lightweight. The cymbal bags you get sometimes are so heavy they're heavy with out cymbals in them! Overall, the materials and craftsmanship are of high quality. This bag needs to last.

The bag also has a few features that I didn't need, but that I think are pretty cool I. - Keyboard clip for a drum set - This is the pocket of the hat clutch. As a safety precaution, I keep an extra cheap battery in there. As the cymbals are guarded from the hats, I have no worries about them clinking and cracking over time, so nothing is damaged.
- The straps of the backpack can be stored There is almost a whole strap covered in the storage pocket- At the top, a small amount of show goes on, but not enough for them to dangle and be cumbersome. I. - In addition to storing the backpack straps, sheet music and drumsticks can be stored in the big flat pocket on the back side of the backpack. You have to be Only one velcro seal is present in the middle of this pocket, so your sticks may escape if you do not keep the bag upright. I'd like to give my FEEDBACK as follows I. - A key on a clip may clink against your hat if you keep it there. Keeping a key on the clip can damage your hat if you are worried about chips arising - If you want to stash it with the clutch, just put it in it. Whenever I play, I use the clip to hold my keychain, and I have only been using it so far to hold my main keychain. Using them this way is more convenient than tossing them on the floor beside I. - As well, I would have liked pockets with dividers in the smaller ones. It would be appreciated if I could keep a few splashes apart. There might be an insert I can get or I could just use a soft cloth. I. - you put a cymbal against the back of your head, you should It sometimes catches on the upper part of the "boot", which is the slot on which it appears. There is an extra layer of interior padding that spans the bottom of the bag and goes up a little ways on both sides, providing extra protection to There is no need to worry. Although I'm sure I will become accustomed to it eventually, if your cymbal has a sharp/cut edge and you're not careful you might start to rip through the back wall of your I will just be more careful in using the back slot - We recommend it because it provides additional protection. I. - The plastic buckles are also criticized by some other reviewers. So far, they appear to be doing a good job. They might not be as high quality as the other materials used in this bag, but what I might not notice is that I wouldn't have considered it a defect either. I tend to think they'll be the first thing to go in case they are mistreated, but hopefully that won't be a problem. In summary, the bottom line is I. - This is an impressive effort from all perspectives (in my opinion). I. - It is well worth your investment to have this case for gigging drummers with cymbals that need to be protected. I. - The purchase was a great deal for me. MONO, thanks for your help.

I chose the MONO bag over Beato's Backpack Cymbal bag simply because the shoulder straps were more comfortable. I found that this was the most compelling reason for me to carry cymbals in the city. Yesterday, this bag came into my hands. A Sam Ash music order was filled by Amazon after the purchase was made through Amazon. The bag's weight when loaded with two 20 inch rides, a 16 inch crash, an 18 inch china and a set of 12 inch hats is noticeable however, it is comfortable and straightforward to carry. There's no doubt this bag is top-notch in terms of fit and finish. There's no doubt that this was designed to be functional and also look good. do not use the splash pocket inside, but it may be a good spot for storing my Zoom H2 when traveling to a gig or practice. My drum sticks are stored in the large back pocket. Despite the fact that loose sticks are stored in there, the bag is still comfortable to wear. Despite its small size, the bag seems to be quite sturdy. This shoe has a rubberized sole that appears to be great. Seeing as I don't have any experience with sharkskin, I can't speak to whether it is water-resistant, but it seems to be more water-tight There's no way I can give this product a 5 star rating. In addition to the bag's price, the cymbal dividers aren't full size, and the clips that connect the backpack straps to the bag's clips are made of plastic, as a previous reviewer noted. In spite of that, MONO can charge a premium for it since there is nothing like it on the market.
I may update this review after a few months of real world use.

I am very happy with the bag, it is very sturdy and well made. I have a problem with that jacket because it's very heavy and causes my shoulders and neck to be sore for days after wear. Despite being a large man, 6'2 and lifting weights, it still causes me trouble. Besides two 22' jazz rides, a crash of 18', and a 15' hat, I load it up with. There could be a lighter version if the dividers were removable, or maybe without padded dividers (just sleeves). You really don't need thick, thick Cymbals don't scratch or get damaged when they are touched by There is a bit of overkill in this. The bag itself is of high quality, there's enough room for accessories and your stick bag as well. I can't help but wonder if a hard pull case would have been a better choice.

When I first got the kit, I was a little concerned since I had just returned a Sabian Cymbal Pac due to cheap poor quality I would not recommend this at all. Very During my research, I found various sources & If one now wants the real deal, one has to choose between Reunion Blues or this Mono M80. The Reunion Blues is also top notch & I'm sure you'll enjoy it There were many great choices I found on the web, but for me most appealed to me the Mono design since it was fresh, younger, and had better design. The inside was AMAZING & much less expensive as well. Upon opening it, I was SO excited & shocked! It was a pleasant surprise to find that the Cymbal Dividers have been updated. In all the pictures online, there were only little short dividers covering only about 1/4 the way up, which almost led me not to purchase, but upon inspection I found that the dividers had been changed to full plush sleeves, which are simply lovely. Thank you very much for your hard work, Mono! There is nothing like quality made in the USA!.
