Excellent case, but some quirks
Bought this bag some time ago, and really like it. It's extremely well built and reassuringly sturdy. It's a very tight fit around the instrument, so there's very little play inside, giving you peace of mind that your bass won't be moving about. Zips are all rugged, everything seems well thought out and durable. It's also nicely stiff, so it stands up on its own and doesn't flop about when the bass isn't inside. That makes it really easy to get the bass in and out.
But there are some quirks. Because it's such a tight fit around the instrument, the headstock gets squashed by the padding, which will cause your tuning pegs to be flattened out. Not a big issue seeing as you'll tune before playing anyway, but obviously not ideal. Also, the front pocket is spacious but there is a gigantic big flap over it which is secured with a metal clasp. This flap has no function at all and is purely cosmetic it seems, and you wonder how much weight could be saved without it.
Not big problems, but worth noting before purchase. Recommended!

Good case for quality instruments
I'm done with heavy hard case bags. They sure protect your instrument but if you gig a lot they will ruin your back. Anyway it doesn't make sense to spend good money on an instrument and not have a good quality case like this one. Protection and padding are guaranteed, but it is also light and stylish and has a wide pocket that fits an iPad or a notebook / music scores. It is very comfortable to wear on your back.

Top Case
As a working student musician, this case is well designed and made. My bass has extra long scale length and a large headstock but still fits nicely into the case which is thin, lightweight and carries all the esentials in the front pouch. great protection against all the elements. Only con is that the pouch is at an angle which isnt ergonomic, and would be better if it was virtical.

Most Impressive
Incredibly sturdy bag. Calling it a sleeve is a bit of an understatement in my opinion, as it puts every other bag I've had thoroughly to shame. The padding is quite dense (almost to the point where it will turn your tuning heads) and your instrument feels nicely held in place inside it.
It has a nice big pocket for cables and such,and very comfortable shoulder straps as well.
