Anybody know how to remove a Musty Smell from a bass case???

Mine must be some kind of super NY Metro stench, then. I tried all of the tried and true methods, but this thing still bunks. It's become a part of its charm.

Does that musty smell remind a bit of incense? That is pretty common in older cases, some kind of mold (I'm even allergic to it). Leave the case open in a dry, preferably heated place and it will gradually go away, takes about a year or so.

Yeah, but you've got a warehouse full of them...

I've had spore contaminated cases like that which gave me an asthma shock, no kidding. That stuff is vile if you're an allergic like me. Basses stink then too - my Triumph had that incense stench for a year or so (all the while standing exposed in a stand), but it eventually went away. Ultraviolet rays are a good idea. Yes, they bleach out the "fur" in the case, but who cares. Spores don't like it. And once they're dead, vacuum them out.
