Default Road Case

Hello,

I’m playing a few road gigs this summer that require airline travel. Can anyone recommend a good hard case for cymbals and snare?

Thanks.

Humes and Berg Enduro or Enduro Pro cases are very well made. The Enduro Pro line also has a built-in, thin, nearly indestructible foam lining. You can see a video of them here.

I use SKB as well and have had no problems but for airline travel, I'd tend to agree with BradGunnerSGT. You need something that you can lock.

Agreed.

Do those Roadcases lock? It was hard to tell from the website pics. I see the twist latches but it didn't look like there was a way to actually lock it.
