Hmmm, so it arrived today, and I think somebody fucked up, because the top flap basically offers no protection whatsoever.

the rain flap is money b/c it actually extends past the wall which means that rain will be diverted off the sides. plus the main benefit is if you run gear from side to side you can see everything without having to open up the top flap. I think that even the other models are open on the sides also. if it seems like it is going to be very dusty, you can put a small piece of foam on each end to keep the dust out. it is built like a tank in my opinion.

yea, i have the same problem w/ my new bag and it's flap.  I have an email out to them and they have asked for a picture.  Although I did use it in some good rain this weekend and everything stayed remarkably dry.

I checked, and it is a 3

Another vote for a Sonicase here.  I have the smaller model and don't see how I went so long without one.  Pricey, yes, but worth every penny.

Is there a 2 shelf version? I only saw 3 & 4, I think both of those are overkill for me.

The three-shelf case is actually smaller than you may think.  Looking at your rig setup from your signature line, one shelf would house the 671, another would hold the V3, and the last shelf holds batteries, microphones, and cables.  It is actually a fairly small footprint, maybe one cubic foot or a shade larger.

I've got the same type of all vinyl cover on mine. It's basically the same thing only that it's all vinyl instead of vinyl/fabric. Serves the same purpose. I'd put all your stuff into it and then see how it looks. Also, pull your handles out so that they are outside of the vinyl.

Hey manitouman, can you possibly post a picture or 2 of your Pegz with the top closed? It's not the all vinyl vs vinyl/fabric combo that bothers me, it's the *size* of the top flap......it doesn't really close the interior of the bag off, at all.

If anyone could possibly post a couple pics of a Pegz-1 or 2 all closed up with the top flap on, I'd appreciate it.

If you can't post pics.....does the top fit snugly on your bag? Or is there a big open space like in the pics in my post from 4/17? The vendor keeps telling me it is a design change, and I just do not understand it.

Yes, exactly, thank you. So would you agree that mine looks wrong? I wonder if it's the flap for a pegz-2.

I still have no clue what that flap is

I'm insinuating he means the top piece that pulls back (has that clear piece in the middle). The Portabrace AO series has a similar function.

I think i am in the same boat, my pegz1-f flap looks nothing like that it it almost 2-3" longer top to bottom.  looks like your earlier pictures

I saw this late last night but will post you some pictures when I get home. I think I know what you mean...the top flap forms a tent instead up pulling taught from velcro to velcro (or from handle to handle) right? Mine fits tight and lays flat when it's closed. I'll shoot some pics tonight for you to see.

Fozzy, where did you buy yours?


I was poking around on the Petrol website, and looked under Service>Spare Parts>Sound Bags>PEGZ-1, and I notice that they have listed as a spare part the SP-1073, which looks *exactly* like the piece I seem to be missing. The rep at the vendor is telling me that the part is discontinued, and I can't find any mention of it being for sale anywhere, but that doesn't make sense to me.

Ugh this is annoying.

Exactly. Thank you.
