In case you like the Gator G-PG61 SLIM case, but can't cram your EA7 into it ...
I sliced one side of the fuzzy foam blanket inside (the 13" top handle side), and took the foam out. That gave me the added inch or so I needed to stuff the EA7 inside.
I really hate wasted space in a case.

any pics of the case modification?... and how are you getting along with the EA7 so far? Uncle Dave & Roland....
wow haven't said those words together since the
old VA7 days at the Union Hotel!!

LOL - Well, with 3 ex wives, you should know not to count on anything sticking around TOO long here. The case looks exactly the same - I just took out the padding on one of the short sides to give me a "scouch more room" (remember that commercial?) The fuzzy velvety covering was sliced at the bottom - you can't even see the incision. You've seen my daily rig - I'm not looking to play this at my regular haunts, but it'll be great at the winery, and for the odd jobs that pop up where keys are more favored.

Dave, I hope you’re not referencing the 3 ex wives with this statement 😊

LOL - naw ... their bottoms were anything BUT fuzzy!

OK Looking forward to your full after Gigging review on the EA7

Here's a few pix of the case mod - also the difference in size/fit between the g-PG61, and the G-PG 61SLIM. Roland makes a dedicated case for this size also, but this Gator is loaded with more pocket space, and it's super teeny. More pix in the next post - limit is 4.

more pix

still more ...

last ones...
I almost always put my kbs in the case with the keys away from me. This is because the front pockets usually add bulk to the top of the case, where the kb is generally fatter. When you use this positioning, theres a smoother fit. Agree, disagree?

BTW - the standard 61 is a great fit for the SX900. (That's why I have it)

Roland EA7 carry bag 61

I bought the Pro GO 76 slim for the Roland BK9.. it was close but no cigar, I sent it back and got the regular size.. Turned out to be a good move... my G70 fits snug..

Your mod would have made the BK9 fit perfect.. in the slim.


Now with my $230 ProGo 76 bag, I can use it to protect the $75 Casio too


BTW: The road runner bag(61 size) at GC fits E-A7 perfectly.. (1/4 cost of ProGo)

Yup, but those bags are NO competition for the Go Pro stuff. They are basically a keyboard with a handle. This G-PG is sooooooo sexy.

If I may steal a box from your post...I have two 61 and one 76 key Gator bags for sale. Not used at all. Still got tags. Open to trades or worthy causes.

... or, another way to look at this is that it sounds like you are three keyboards short.

Personally, the idea of having the keys facing the ground bothers me, but whatever works for you ...

I'm the only one transporting the unit, so I have no worries. Not using vans, trucks, or dollies- just picking it up, and walking it in. I'm not worried - the case give plenty of protection.
