There are many standard HSC's that will protect your bass much better than a gig bag, however, if you are traveling (i.e. bus, plane, train, RV, etc.), a HSC will only protect against so much abuse. An 'ATA Category 1 Flight Case' would give you the best protection of abuse from extreme travel. Otherwise, if instrument is well within your control, a nice, well made gig bag would most likely be sufficent.
