Glenn Cronkhite’s Banjo Gig Bags are made so well they are known to last decades, and we have the history to back that up! Glenn was the actually inventor of the gig bag, and designed all the original Reunion Blues Banjo Gig Bags back when those were made in San Francisco (1975-2000). We have all of his old school RB patterns and will continue to make them the correct way — with the highest quality materials, made to last!

NOTE:

We have over 50,000 product variations, so not all colors or combinations are shown here.

Protection

  • An inch of high-density / high resilience foam surrounds your Banjo.
  • The exterior is made from either a top quality leather, or the best US-made genuine Cordura fabrics.

Durability

  • This Banjo gig bag is famously known to last for decades without issues.
  • We use huge #10 YKK main zippers.
  • Solid brass rivets and T138 polyester threads for longevity.
  • Real leather binding won’t crack like our competitors’ bags.
  • We use only the finest brass-plated steel hardware.

Capacity

  • One banjo.
  • One side pocket for convenient storage (most models).

Included

  • Backpack Straps.

Design

  • This is the original Glenn Cronkhite banjo bag design, formerly sold and known in the industry as a Reunion Blues Banjo Gig Bag — Often copied, never equalled.
  • It features perfect portability in a lightweight bag for easy transport wherever you are headed.
  • At 3-4 pounds, you can’t go wrong!

Exterior

  • We use only the finest top grain leathers. Choose from Smooth Black, Badlands, Chocolate Brown, Canyon Sunrise, Cinnamon, or a stylish British Tan.
  • Our nylons are US-made genuine Cordura, which is one of the most durable fabrics ever invented. It’s abrasive strength is unmatched, and is almost always considered “Military Spec,” when others aren’t good enough.

Specs

  • The dimensions vary, but these are custom bags built around your specific banjo. An average nylon banjo bag will weight around 3 pounds, and a leather one will be about 4.
