    Default What other companies make drum hardware cases?

    Other than SKB and Gator/Protechtor, what other drum companies make drum hardware cases?

    I need to order a hardware case BADLY. I absolutely do not want a bag. I really like the SKB "Large Drum Hardware Case" but it's not long enough.
    The inside dimensions are:
    Interior length: 42"
    Interior width: 16"
    Interior depth: 16-1/2"

    The width and depth are fine but I need the inside length to be 48".

    I have looked at all the hardware cases that SKB and Gator/Protechtor makes. All I want to know is what other companies make drum hardware cases? I want to check their sites and see if they have a hardware case with these dimensions, or close to it. I absolutely do not want a bag.

    Thank you.

    HB, Ahead, and Gibraltar also make hardware bags/cases. Gibraltar may only be bags, but I believe the other 2 should have hard cases too.
    You may have already done this, but I wouldn't limit yourself to standard hardware cases. Cases for racks should have more room...some people use keyboard cases too.

    Good point, pcs90.

    I've also seen golf club hard cases get the nod.

    One thing to keep in mind, if you stuff any of them full you may find they are impossible to transport unless you have an army of roadies.

    Bish is right . I used a SKB golf club case for a while . I got it used off of Craigslist for less than $50 and it worked like a charm . It has wheels and straps to tie things down , you tilt it back and go . I sold it recently since I no longer have the rack I transported in it .

    I have SKB's older case and it's 48" long. I looked and I don't see the case I own up there anymore. That's a shame. Fits my rack perfectly. I assume you have a rack your packing up?

    RockemMusic has them. Except that's over seas. So somewhere here in the states must carry them.
    I just did some googling for 48" drum hardware cases

    Yes! I remember reading about Hardcase in Modern drummer a long time ago! This is exactly why I posted! Thanks SpazApproved! I've sent them messages. I hope I hear something soon.

    Check out Tough Traveler, Schenectady NY. In the 70's they were a small company making backpacks and sporting bags in a little shop around the corner from my high school. Now they have an international reputation and manufacture all types a bags and cases, including a whole line for musicians. They even do custom-made one-off's or custom modifications to catalog products (although custom work will cost a bit more).
