good double gig bag for guitar?

I need a good gig bag or molded foam case for 2 guitars (strats). I have the Gator one and it's ok, but I'm just looking for another option . . .

I've got a double gig bag for basses made by Mooradian, it's perfectly adequate. Apparently they do make a double guitar bag: Guitars

they are almost perfect, I'm just a litttle nervous about it being one cavity w/ a little "removable" part that goes in between the 2 guitars.

I could just see me in a rush to get off the stage and not situating them right and them banging together the whole time home (sometimes on a subway)

I can;t believe there are only a few out there . . . maybe three or four that I could find. . . seems odd to me

I felt the same way before I bought mine...I even thought about buying a second divider just so I could have twice as much padding in between the two instruments.

Turned out to be a non-issue.

Much as I've tried (!) I simply cannot stuff two basses into that case in such a way that they scrape each other up or make any contact whatsoever. I maybe have to take an extra 2.5 seconds to insure that the top end of the divider is centered over the instruments' headstocks. But even if I don't, there's not enough room inside the gig bag to allow for the type of movement that would cause them to bang together.

I went out and got one. for some reason it doesn;t "feel" as heafty as the bass one but it's probably my imagination (and the fact it's a lot smaller). I'll see my bass player in a few days and I'll compare. I'm still a little nervous about the middle part - just seems like a pain in the ass (or maybe I'm the pain in the ass . . . ). but over all the bag seems a lot sturdier than my gator. . .

thanks for the info Bob!
