Lightweight Everyday Protection for Your Electric Guitar
The BOSS CB-EG05 is a slim, lightweight electric guitar gig bag designed for lessons, rehearsals and everyday transport. At just 1.4kg, it's easy to carry while still providing 15mm padding, neck support, and additional protection for the areas of the guitar most vulnerable in transit.
A rugged 400D polyester exterior, soft fleece interior, backpack straps and expanded accessory storage make it a practical step up from the basic bags commonly supplied with guitars.

Our Take
The CB-EG05 is a great choice for those seeking more protection than a basic gig bag without added weight. At just 1.4kg, it's perfect for students and musicians who frequently transport their guitars. It features 15mm padding, a detachable neck rest, and reinforced areas to protect against wear.
Storage is a highlight, with a spacious front pocket for essentials like cables, strings, and pedals, so you don't need another bag. For those needing more impact protection, consider the CB-EG15 or CB-EG25. However, for everyday use, the CB-EG05 offers a perfect balance of lightness, slim storage, and adequate protection, making it a better option than standard soft bags.
