The perfect gear/helix bag with just a few drawbacks
I have to say i absolutely love this bag. I use it weekly multiple times a week and it is great and has held up thus far. I think due to the nature of the outside pocket being velcro, some more organization options could have been included (maybe dividers or something) however, the actually quality of the bag is great, more than enough padding for gigging and possibly even a flight though i think id feel far more comfortable putting this in a hard case for a flight. I think one thing they could have added would be to turn the sleeve in the outside pocket into a laptop sleeve, I already use it as a laptop sleeve (fits my 13 inch macbook pro perfectly) however making it a little stronger and possibly even adding a fleece lining / some padding would have made it perfect for the job.
Another irritation i have is that the main pocket, the one for the helix, doesn't open up fully, it only partially opens up, I understand why they do this however I think personally I would have preferred it to be a full clamshell design that opened up fully like the front compartment.
I would highly recommend this bag for anyone with a helix/helix lt or even for other things (I also use it for other gear and can fit a portable composition rig in this, midi keyboard, headphones, interface, a mic, some cables, and a laptop with loads of room to spare.

The right strap Buckle broke within a few weeks of use, almost making me drop my Helix and Strymon Pedals on the concrete. Not what you expect from a backpack at this price point

Great bag but with minor cons
I bought this bag and it fits my Helix perfectly of course. But what I did not like was this zipper system inside the bag where the Helix is - the iron zipper puller can scratch the equipment inside. Also the bag should have been made a little bit lighter (by using maybe better quality lighter fabrics?). But on the whole it?s a very good bag.
