Title: Broken handle on Rogue5 case
Post by: toms on December 29, 2008, 01:44:49 PM

You can imagine the fear when I picked up my Rogue 5 case(bass inside) the other day after a gig and the handle broke. Lucky for me, it was only inches from the floor when it broke.
 
I've never had a handle break into, right at the bend(near index finger) before. This case appears to be much better built than my Essence4 case and I expected problems with the Essence case before I'd have problems with my Rogue case.  
 
Anyone know if Alembic sells replacement handles? Or does anyone know of a case handle vendor?
 
Thanks in advance for the reply.

Thanks for the information.  
I've got a new handle in the mail.
 
Man, this is a great site!
