The GP-Drumcart from Gator comes from the Protechtor hardware series and makes transporting drum hardware a lot easier. The combination of hand cart and bag offers a lot of space for all kinds of equipment, from cymbal and snare stands to small parts like tuning keys. A well-organised compartment and storage system ensures a well-sorted overview, and the hard-wearing, 600-denier nylon outer material reliably protects the equipment inside from external influences while a double plastic bottom provides sufficient stability.
The GP-Drumcart bag measures 113.54x48.01x36.07cm and has a large main compartment as well as several external accessory pockets. The rolling cart consists of a black painted 25mm steel frame that both supports the bag and acts as a handle. The wheels of the rolling cart are designed for a weight of up to 47kg, so it can always handle even heavy duty with ease. The GP-Drumcart can be set down in a vertical or horizontal position - for this purpose, the bag section must be removed from the rolling cart. Four carrying handles are provided for transporting the bag.
The GP-Drumcart combines a large storage capacity with the best possible flexibility and therefore offers a number of advantages over hard or flight cases: As the bag and rolling cart can be separated from each other, both components can also be easily stowed away in smaller vehicles. What is more, the flexibility of the nylon fabric is a great advantage in vehicles with limited space. With all of this together, it meets all the requirements to make sure that your drum hardware is transported safely and comfortably. In addition, the bag makes a convincing case thanks to the extremely clean manufacturing quality of all of its components, making it durable even with intensive use.
Gator, or Gator Cases, is an American firm founded in 2000 by father-daughter team Jerry Freed and Crystal Morris in Tampa, Florida. Initially, Gator began with a modest range of moulded plastic guitar cases. From there, they expanded the product line to include case and bag solutions for the whole field of instruments and equipment. A wide variety is covered: Instruments, microphones, and all aspects of live performance, including lighting equipment. At the same time, products for other media areas such as photo and video are also available. All products are made of high-quality plastics, wood, textiles, and EVA materials. The Gator companies also include flight case manufacturer Viking Cases and guitar strap manufacturer Levy's Leathers Ltd., as well as Gator Rackworks and Gator Frameworks.
The large main compartment of the bag offers immense storage space, which is sufficient for several stands of different kinds. Even drum stools can be stowed away without any problems. The main compartment is equipped with fastening straps to prevent the hardware inside from slipping. The external accessory pockets come in different sizes so that even small equipment can be safely stored. In this way, sticks, brushes, and mallets, for example, will find their place in the side pockets, while tuning keys, tape, and other things can be stowed in the front pockets.
