I just sold this rack unit after 3 years. It held up well. The latches were a little flimsy, but the construction overall is super industrial strength, better than the Gator I had before. It is more bulky. I like the built in handles, one less latch to go bad. I would buy it again.

Not 10 spaces-bottom space too narrow
Posted by JL from OR on Dec 12, 2008
Experience w/product: I have heard about it

These are not practical cases for mounting medium to large amps or power amps. The floor of the case narrows about where the handles are. This makes it impossible for mounting say, any Marshall power amp, on the lowest space. You will have to move the larger units up at least one space for them to fit and leave the bottom empty with supports needed. Very poor design.

I Bought the 12 Space Rack....

....for my guitar / PA set up...this rack shouldn't see a lot of use outside rehearsal in my home so I don't need super heavy duty strength...this model SKB is light, seems durable enough, and is reasonably priced. By the way, the 12 space rack can actually accomodate 13 spaces if you take it to the limit with no gaps, etc...

SKB Roto Rack
Posted by Pinkzebraproductions from California on Aug 9, 2008
Experience w/product: I own it
Reviewer's Background: Traveling Musician and Sound Engineer
Reviewer's Play Style: All types of music
About a year ago I purchased the 12 space Roto rack, and began by only filling four spaces, two at the top, and two at the bottom. The problem was that I live in the desert of California where it is well over 100 degrees sometimes and over 140 in the back of my truck. During transport the thing would warp inwards (because all plastic will in the heat). It also got VERY hot inside and I was concerned about my power amps frying.

The good thing is, once you fill the rack, you will not have the warping problem, because equipment will hold the rack out. It still concerns me how hot it gets though. Fantastic quality otherwards, and I will continue to use SKB because of the liftime guarantee (that nobody else has!) Also, compared to Roadrunner and other wood cases, it is ultra light.

Other concerns- NO rear rails. This means you have to install them to mount most power amps correctly. Also, no casters, you have to install or buy these from SKB. Be sure you don't do a home job and void your guarantee! That is what you pay for with SKB!

What a Great Rack!!!

The SKB Roto Rack is the best rack case I have ever owned, hands down. I recently bought an eight space for my Mesa Boogie Triaxis and 2:90 power amp which are considerably expensive pieces. I also house the rest of my gear in it. It is built extremely rugged, the pieces fit into securely, and has enough room to easily wire your components and leave them wired. It is such a joy to just have to pop off the front door and plug in. It's a breeze. The heavy duty latches that secure the door to the case for transport are rugged and I can't see myself ever damaging them or any other part of the SKB. The best thing is if I do somehow damage it in ANY WAY it will be replaced for free for the lifetime of the case. That is hard to beat. I will never look at another case ever again. The next time I need a rack case or any other type of case, SKB will be my choice.

My gear is expensive and I trust it's protection with SKB.
