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!
