Gator GPG-ACOUELECT - Pro-Go Double Softcase for Acoustic and Electric Guitar
The Gator GPG-ACOUELECT (manufacturer reference G-PG-ACOUELECT ) is a professional gig bag from the Pro-Go series, specifically designed to transport both an acoustic and an electric guitar . It combines the lightness of a gig bag with the protection of a high-end hard case, thanks to its two separate compartments lined with microfleece , extra-thick padded side walls , and an internal shock-absorbing Body Block designed to protect the most sensitive areas of the instrument.
The exterior is made of durable, water-repellent, high-density nylon (black finish), while the interior uses a very soft fleece/microfleece that prevents scratches on the guitar's finish and wraps around the body and neck. Each compartment features an adjustable neck cradle and a support block in the body area to minimize internal movement, absorbing shocks and vibrations during transport.
This is a double gig bag: one side holds an acoustic guitar (dreadnought or similar) and the other a solid-body electric guitar. The maximum working interior dimensions accommodate most standard models. According to the product specifications, the reference interior dimensions for guitars are:
-
Total length: approx. 117.1cm
-
Body length: approx. 63.5 cm
-
Lower body width: approx. 43.9 cm
-
Average body width: approx. 39.1 cm
-
Width of the top: approx. 33 cm
-
Body height: approx. 8.9 cm
Additionally, the manufacturer indicates for typical internal compartments indicative internal dimensions with a total instrument length of around 105–109 cm , body of around 55 cm , lower box width of about 40–41 cm and body depth of up to 14 cm , which confirms compatibility with standard-sized acoustic guitars and common solid-body electric guitars.
In terms of external dimensions, the case measures approximately 123.9 x 46.5 x 31.2 cm (L x W x H) according to Tempo Shop's specifications, and around 115.6 x 44.5 x 30.5 cm according to the official specifications (normal variation depending on the measurement method). The weight is around 6.5–6.6 kg , very low for a reinforced double gig bag with so much padding.
The GPG-ACOUELECT features a large front panel of pockets : a spacious main compartment for cables, a small pedalboard, or sheet music; a separate microfleece-lined pocket for a tablet ; internal sections for organizing accessories; and cable management on the flap. It also includes a fold-out rain cover that stows away in one of the pockets, providing extra protection from sudden downpours when transporting guitars between vehicles, venues, or stages.
For transport, the soft case features padded front and side handles and an adjustable, detachable backpack-style strap system with thick padding and back reinforcement, allowing you to comfortably carry the entire set like a backpack, even with both guitars loaded. The overall design is intended for guitarists who alternate between acoustic and electric guitars during the same gig and want to carry everything in a single, high-quality case without needing two separate hard cases.

Product benefits

Two guitars, one case: allows you to transport an acoustic and an electric guitar simultaneously in a single gig bag, simplifying travel to concerts, rehearsals and sessions.

Neck and headstock safety: The adjustable cradle secures the neck on both guitars, reducing the risk of damage to the headstock and neck-body joint.
-
Comfortable to carry: The padded and detachable backpack straps, along with the hand handles, allow you to choose the most comfortable way to carry the guitars depending on the distance and weight.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does it work for any acoustic and electric guitar?
It's designed for standard dreadnought/folk acoustic guitars and regular-sized solid-body electric guitars (Strat, Tele, superstrat, etc.). It's always recommended to compare your guitar's measurements with the case's approximate interior dimensions.
Can I use it with a jumbo or very large 12-string guitar?
Some jumbo or 12-string guitars with very deep bodies can be too bulky. If the body clearly exceeds 41–44 cm in width or a depth close to 14 cm, the setup may not be optimal.
Do the two guitars play against each other inside the case?
No. Each guitar has its own separate compartment , with padding and microfleece on both sides. The instruments are placed back-to-back inside the gig bag.
Are the backpack straps fixed?
No, the backpack straps are adjustable and detachable , so you can remove them if you prefer to use only the handles or when you're checking your luggage, for example.
What happens if it rains?
The outer nylon offers some moisture resistance, and the gig bag also includes a foldable rain cover that can be deployed to protect the soft case during short trips in the rain. It's not a submersible system, but it provides good protection against moderate showers.
Is it heavier than two individual cases?
The set is naturally heavier than a simple gig bag, but weighs less than two hard guitar cases. Weighing approximately 6.5 kg empty and using the backpack system, it's manageable for most typical gigging and travel situations.
Usage and compatibility recommendations
To ensure your guitars fit correctly, measure each instrument from the tip of the headstock to the furthest point of the body and compare it to the maximum overall length (approximately 105–117 cm depending on the compartment) . Also, check the body width at its widest point (bottom) and the depth of the case . If your guitars' measurements are equal to or smaller than the indicated guideline values, compatibility will be good.
During transport, it is recommended to always secure the mast cradle in both compartments and use the Body Block in the body area. For long journeys such as train or plane trips (as hand luggage or in overhead compartments), the rain cover and extra padding help minimize accidental bumps and scratches from other luggage.
