39 5/8" x 17 1/8" x 5 7/8"
(1003 x 433 x 148 mm)


These are the S900 dimensions....

I would suggest the Guardian 61 case ....
in side there are are four adjustable Velcro square Foam blocks that you can put anywhere on the sides to compensate for the few inches of extra space if needed....

The Guardian case is a featherweight hard shell case. The keyboard fits, but the case wouldn't fit in my trunk.

I like the Kaces 9KB. There is a little space left over laterally - about 3 1/2 inches. I use the space for a container where I keep my headset mic, mic cable, and a/c adapter.

Is it padded well also? I see the dimension are a few inches longer in lenght but the others are right.... (44.5 x 17 x 6.5)

the 3 pockets are a nice touch also.

I had the Kaces 9KB for awhile too and got rid of it. I'd call it more of a dust cover than a case. almost no padding at all.

Ghadddsssss -

Got the Yamaha YBV-611 in today for my S900 and I must say that it caused me to cuss way too much. No way - no fit. Sent it back and got the Kaces 9KB-61. Geeshhh Yamaha, change your bag recommendations!

Let us know how you like the Kaces. As I said, I had that one too and all I can say is I'd definitely recommend you do some extra padding yourself. The Kaces is Very Thin.

Thanx for the tip on the flimsy cover.....the Guardian 61 is the way to go for sure.....80 bucks & piece of mind!


second choice is the Gator 61

Yes, it is surprising how many of the bags have GREAT padding and protection for the underside, where there is nothing to damage, but light and flimsy on top, where all the sliders, knobs and displays are (and you are likely to have things on top, if not careful)...

Should be the other way around, IMO

I do put some extra padding.

The best advice I have for soft bags is to purchase a bag that is somewhat oversize, one that has at least an inch or two of clearance in all directions. Then line all the bag's inner surfaces with Ethafoam, which is a closed cell, pollyethelyne foam that is stiff, yet still provides a great deal of cushioning. Place an additional inch of soft foam padding on the top layer to protect the buttons, keys and display. The cost of the foam and soft padding averages about $50 and it will last for decades. My current bag is nearly 15 years old, it is padded as described above, and I think I'll probably get another 15 years out of it.
