Give Your Guitar a Gig Bag That Travels As Well As It Looks — Not Just Another Heavy Case
If you've lugged a bulky guitar case through stations or green rooms, an oversized hard shell is not enough. Rigid hard cases are heavy, awkward, and offer nowhere to stash your essentials. You end up carrying a second bag just for your capo and cables.
The Troubadour is a soft, padded gig bag built differently — lighter and more flexible than a hard case, designed to solve the real problems traveling musicians face day to day.

Why Pull-Up Leather Instead of Plastic Hard Shells?
Plastic cases scratch, fade, and look the same as the day they were made — and there's no character to develop, ever.

Our chestnut pull-up leather is:
Strong enough to protect your guitar in a structured, padded bag
Naturally expressive — lightens at every crease and fold, developing a deep, lustrous character with every trip
Fitted with dual exterior storage pouches so essentials travel with the bag
Built to outlast plastic hard cases, even with years of touring

Why the Dual Exterior Pouches Matter
Two spacious saddle-stitched front pockets keep capos, tuners, straps, and cables on the bag itself, so nothing gets left behind in a second bag. This is especially important for:
Touring musicians who need gear consolidated in one piece
Players who've shown up to a gig missing a capo or cable
Anyone who wants their gig bag to double as their accessory kit

Made for Your Guitar, Personally
This isn't a stock bag. The Troubadour can be tailored in hardware finish, and our personalisation and customisation option lets you add initials — a genuine gift for a guitarist, and a memorable gift for him or gift for her, who wants heirloom-quality leather that ages beautifully, in a lighter carry than a hard case.

The result? A gig bag that's more organised, more personal, and built to last for decades — not tours. Because traveling with your guitar shouldn't mean traveling with two bags.

Dimensions
Length: 99 cm | Upper bout width: 31 cm | Lower bout width: 40 cm | Depth: 11 cm
Fits standard dreadnought, concert, and most grand auditorium acoustic guitars.
Have a different size or shape of guitar? Just let us know — we specialise in customisations and can tailor your gig bag to fit.

Exclusively Top-Tier leather — the highest quality grade, from the outermost hide layer. It develops a rich patina over decades and only improves with age.
Our deep hot-stamp embossing is permanent — pressed into the grain, it cannot peel or fade. It will last the full lifetime of the product.
Yes. Use the custom size field or instructions box at checkout. Contact us on WhatsApp for complex commissions before ordering.
Handcrafted in 10–15 days, then delivered by tracked courier in 10–12 days.
Full-grain retains the complete natural grain — strongest and most durable. Genuine leather is sanded and coated lower-hide material. We never use genuine, bonded, or split leather.
Yes — upload PNG, JPG or SVG in the personalisation section. Recommended: clean vector SVG or 300dpi PNG with bold, simple design.
30-day returns on non-personalised items. Personalised pieces are non-returnable unless there is a manufacturing defect, in which case we will remake at no charge.
Yes — your full customisation summary is included in your order confirmation email, sent to both buyer and seller.
We check every engraving request before it goes to the craftsman. If we spot an obvious error we will email you to confirm. Once approved and engraved, personalised pieces cannot be amended, so please double-check your spelling, punctuation and capitalisation before placing your order.
Yes, absolutely. Just tick the 'Gift order' option at checkout and we will omit any pricing from the packaging. You can also add a handwritten gift message at no extra charge — enter your message in the personalisation notes field.
Completely normal, and actually a good sign. Full-grain and vegetable-tanned leathers carry a rich natural scent from the tanning process — synthetic or low-grade leathers are odourless. The smell mellows within a few days of use. If it bothers you initially, leave the piece open in a well-ventilated room overnight.
International orders are shipped via tracked courier and typically arrive within 10–12 days depending on your location. Every order receives a tracking number by email as soon as it dispatches. Customs delays (rare but possible) are outside our control; we always ship with full declared value to assist swift clearance.
We photograph every piece in natural light to show true colour, but screen calibration varies. Full-grain leather also has natural variation — no two hides are identical — so you may see subtle tonal differences to the image. If colour accuracy is critical (e.g. matching an existing set), email us before ordering and we will send a swatch photograph.
Full-grain leather is the most durable leather available, but it will develop surface marks over time — that is part of its character, not a defect. Light scratches can be buffed out with a soft dry cloth or a tiny amount of conditioner. Deeper marks gradually blend into the patina and become part of the piece's unique history. If you need a truly scratch-proof surface, leather is not the right material — but if you want something that looks better with every year of use, full-grain leather is unrivalled.
