## Description

Drum hardware bag, 18 x 46 inches, with wheels & molded reinforced bottom

Review: Great bag for the money - Originally got the shorter version of this bag, and although it was fine I had to collapse most of my stands for them to fit, which is a pain since I've got memory locks set where I want them on a lot of them. Thanks to desertcart the return process was easy and I got this bag instead, which is exactly the same except longer. Now all my stands fit (including my hihat stand) without having to do much at all, which is a big timesaver. I'll also say the bag seems very well constructed (zippers are pretty thick and nylon exterior is also pretty thick and tough), and I expect it will hold up well as long as it's not abused or ridiculously overpacked. The padding is a little on the thin side, but hey, it's carrying hardware so who really cares? If I was on tour buses or other people were handling my gear I'd probably opt for something a little more substantial, but for my needs it's more than fine. Everything else I looked at was either substantially more expensive or looked more flimsy for the price, and this bag was the perfect compromise between quality, function, and price. I'd buy it again (hope I won't have to though) and plan on picking up some Gator drum cases as well in the near future.
Review: It's a good bag, but make sure you need a bag this long - This is a review of the Gator Cases Drum Set Hardware Carry Bag. I haven't hauled this bag to a hundred gigs, so please read this review with that in mind. It's a sturdy bag, but having such a long bag invites you to overstuff it. Don't do it - this bag seems to be built well, but it's not indestructible. I like that it fits a high hat stand without needing to break it down completely. Plus I can stick a throne in there without a problem. Make sure that the weight is distributed evenly, because it's an awkward shape to carry.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gravity Catches Up With All of Us…
*by R***O on January 7, 2025*

Got tired of lugging around my five piece Yamaha Stage Custom drum kit, heavy SKB molded/wheeled hardware case, and fully loaded Zildjian cymbal bag. Minimized down to a converted jungle 18” tom bass drum, Pearl Short Fuse snare, Yamaha light aluminum snare stand, PDP mini timbale tom w/ tom mount extension, PDP two legged hi hat stand w/a splash cymbal attachment above top hat cymbal, and an aluminum Iron Cobra Long Speed pedal. This Gator hardware bag’s perfect for my small kit. The canvas bag weave is medium weight though it's not a molded hardware case and works best for light transport. Great for my hi hat, cymbal, and snare stands. Can also fit an aluminum PA speaker stand and couple lightweight mic stands. For us mature drummers it’s a great hardware case for minimalist drum kits. Small kits can be mic’d as needed for different gigs, and/or use heavier drum sticks.
