Following the successful launch of its newest drum case series, Gator Grooves, Gator Cases has introduced two new models designed specifically for drum hardware, providing a fresh update to its long-standing collection of hardware cases.
The 33” x 15” model is best suited for compact situations, such as car backseats or smaller transport spaces. A retractable handle and molded side grips offer multiple carrying options, making it ideal for players with smaller rigs or quick-turnaround gigs.
The 42” x 16” model offers additional capacity and length, allowing drum stands to remain extended during transport. It features a built-in pull handle and multiple spring-loaded, 90-degree stop handles for added lift support when loading heavier gear.
Both cases feature a weather-resistant, rotationally molded construction that is lightweight yet durable enough to handle intensive touring schedules. Each case includes interlocking channels that allow secure stacking with other Grooves drum cases or hardware cases of the same dimensions.
Heavy-duty, 2-inch adjustable straps with high-tension buckles keep the lids firmly closed during transport, while built-in handles and rubber inline wheels ensure a smooth load-in and load-out.
