Default Re: Camping with a guitar

What do you mean a gig bag?
Is the back box on the back or is it over the pillion seat?

I've had a lot of luck with vango tents, omega 250... brilliant sized porch for bike kit and goes on the bike well.

Pack the bike, not you. I'd stick some throw-over panniers on, then the tent, then the guitar over the top of all that. You could actually get the tent inside one of the panniers easy enough.

I'm imagining bluegrass festivals aren't quite as likely to end up with some gap-year tosspiece off their tits on heroin and red bull running over your tent so you're better having a comfy night than a cheap festival tent?

Gig bag is a soft bag
