Good protection, small outside pocket

I like the look and feel of this bag, which fits my Cordoba 15CM beautifully. Compared to the Road Runner gig bag I bought earlier, which cost twice as much and doesn't have as much padding, I would feel much more comfortable putting this gig bag in the overhead compartment of an airplane, or any other place it might get jostled about. I only had some very minor disappointments. 1. Size of the outer pocket In the picture, it looked like the outside pocket was larger (see how the top of the pocket in the seller's picture goes up to the middle of the handle, while in actuality, the top of the pocket sits just at the bottom of the handle) I was really hoping a Hal Leonard method book would fit in the pocket, but I knew that was a long shot, even if the pocket was the size in the seller's picture. I took a picture of the bag next to a method book for scale. This bag won't even hold the much smaller Hal Leonard Ukulele Chord Finder book, which my Road Runner gig bag can hold. (I also took a picture of the chord finder book peeking out of the pocket.) Still, it holds my accessories just fine. 2. Perhaps too much padding around the headstock? I'm a little worried about accidentally turning the tuning keys when I take my ukulele in and out of this bag. A minor annoyance, but might be worth it for the extra protection. 3. The zipper doesn't seem as durable as the one on my Road Runner bag, but it doesn't seem like a cheap zipper either. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase.
