These cases work great for what they are. The only faults I can find are normal of this caliber of case: They will bend and morph if left in a hot trailer, as will any plastic. The Luggage style straps will break if you step on them in the dark backstage. The liners will also tear from the interior if you're not careful loading the drums into the case. And the casters for the kick case suck. I made a 3/8" plywood plate to separate the casters from the plastic and used 1/4" longer bolts to mount them. This helps keep the "Camber" of the wheels in check. You can roll without the plate of course, it's just what worked for me. Although I highly recommend the wheels regardless. It's so nice to roll your kick to the stage. Don't let your roadies, bandmates, helpers, ect.. grab the case by the straps. They have handles for a reason. I find these Cases to be one step down from a flight case, and 50lbs lighter at that. I love em.

Superb Cases.

Likely the best cases you can purchase for the value next to ATA cases which are far more expensive. Unless you are on a major tour and more of a local, regional player these cases will serve you well. With that said I have also seen these cases used on major tours.

The optional wheels are a must for the kick drum case for many reasons. Much easier to maneuver your kick on load in/out and also makes for a great rolling platform to stack your SKB cymbal vault and other drum cases. I'm in and out of the truck in two moves using the rolling kick drum case and a rock n roller cart.

My only complaint.. when you use the accessory wheels for the kick drum case they screw into preinstalled nut plates built into the case bottom. The wheel bolts now extend into the case and the only thing that separates the top of the bolt from your kick is the bottom liner of the case. The liner is not thick enough to keep the wheel bolts from pressing through the liner and having contact with the kick. Not good. Major oversight in my opinion and I brought it to SKB's attention years ago. Not sure if they have made a correction. If you use the wheels check for this. I lay my kit cover in the bottom of the case which prevents the contact.

Custom Sizes

I've played with a ton of people who will swear up and down on these cases. They are made extremely well, I haven't seen anyone break one yet, and I knew of a guy who would purposefully slide his kick down flights of stairs after gigging with total trust that these cases would hold up and not mess up his kit... (I'm not suggesting that however ha)

If you have a Custom kit, however, and need a custom size, you can actually call SKB and they will make a case to your specifications... So don't fret if this site doesn't have your size in drums...

Hope this helps!

I bought a kit about a month ago and got the cases with them and they are the best i had a gig in an upstairs apartment and i accidently droped my bass drum while i was comming down the stairs and when i opened it up there wasn't even a scratch on them. its a little hard to order them if you have gauger mounts but they usually fit.

My dad bought a new mapex kit last year, soon after he bought these cases. I had my doubts about how well they could take the abuse, how well they stacked, etc. Well, let's just say these things are like tanks! They can take anything you throw at them! I just bought a mapex kit myself this year, and I'm looking at buying those cases a.s.a.p.! Don't let the prices scare you off. They are by far the best cases I've ever seen. The only down side I see in them. Is that they have a limited number of sizes for drums. So what, buy a case one inch bigger it wont hurt!
