Zack Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 Glad it's available, just curious what happened to the handle thing though... oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Craca Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 Everyone keeps harping on the "no handle" thing. That's the most easily remedied complaint. I agree, you need a handle on these large built bags. However, the permanently attached handles on my PEGZ-1 gets in the way when I'm wearing it on a harness. I like removable handle straps so you have the option to take them off. On a couple of my rigs I use the canvas carry handles made for the Domke bags because you can get them in several lengths and they are thin and light enough to just lay forward or be tucked in and out of the way. On the PS617 I only had on hand an old fat padded leather carry handle from the old PortaBrace Sony 8" field monitor case and that works fine for me right now.

JDirckze Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 The PEGZ-1 handles could be easily tucked away behind the velcro strip in the front main compartment and behind your mixer in the rear of the bag... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Maier Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 How many of you are planning on using the Betso TCD with the ps617? Seems like a very specific feature on the bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zack Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Oh.....it's "removable", one way or another Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnpaul215 Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 I have the 614 and I just keep a shortened shoulder strap. When working with a harness, it hangs underneath. That way it's there to carry the bag (when not mixing), or when I just use the shoulder strap for easier stuff. Not the cleanest solution, but I thought an aftermarket handle (clipped to the plastic D-rings) would be in the way when mixing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmfsnd Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 Any word on availability here in LA? E-tailers are claiming backorders until Spring. No bueno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
