So I needed a way to transport the Kemper and keep it safe. I'm not on the road, but I do carry my gear to local studios often. I didn't want something cumbersome like a road case that would tear up my car's interior, so I measured the Kemper and headed off to Wal-Mart. With some modifications to the zipper doors and the addition of some sonex in the bottom, I was able to create a bag where the Kemper can live and be used without removal. It's a Plano FTO Elite tackle bag. There's space on the sides where the vents are located so the KPA doesn't suffocate. You guys at Kemper may already be working on a case, but this basic design seems to fit the bill.

Whoops, I missed this (didn't have to look far) http://kemper-amps.com/forum/i…page=Thread&threadID=3053 Anyway, this should suffice until I can get the real thing.

Good idea fretboard. I notice you have a grounded AC cord. Did that come with the KPA? The reason I ask is mine came with a 2 prong cord.

Mine actually came with a 2 prong. I just noticed I threw the wrong one in there.

Thanks

Interesting, very practical. I'm looking for something like that. I use my kemper at home most of the time but sometimes is necessary for me to have a bag when I want to carry my unit somewhere.

That looks great! What modifications did you have to make to the zipper doors?
Thanks,
Brian

Yeah, tackle bags aren't the cheapest thing on the market, but I wanted something well built to protect the investment. My main concern has been knocking a knob off.

Thanks so much. There's a net than ran along the bottom of the opening as well as 2 nylon straps that kept the door from folding all the way down. I just took a razor blade and very carefully cut it all away without doing any damage to the structural stitching. Nothing too scientific, just an idiot with a razor, lol. -
