The Gator 14 x 5" Classic Snare Drum Protechtor Case provides a safe, secure and stylish way to protect and transport your snare drum. This industry standard case has been designed under close manufacturing scrutiny to produce protection that is strong, reliable and water-resistant.

The case is closed with a wide and sturdy latch strap. The carry handle is padded, comfortable and secured with metal hardware.

The Classic Snare Drum Case is produced through a process called rotational molding - a 3-stage heating process that results in evenness all around the edges of the case. The polyethylene material is inserted into a mold, and then gradually rotated until the material sticks to the edges of the mold in an even pattern. Once cooled, this plastic material forms a strong bond that minimizes sagging and potential collapse. This case is manufactured to such high standards that it comes with a lifetime warranty against manufacturer's defects.

For any musician, protecting your instrument is critical - and if you've ever played in a band, you know that roadies and car trunks can be rough on gear. Loading and unloading under various climatic conditions puts your gear through stress. However, when it's time to play, you want to know that your gear has made it to the gig in one piece and is ready to go. Gator Classic Snare Cases are made with the needs of the musician in mind.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. What's needed to use the C1 Cube with a Canon 5DmkIII?

A: You would just need a mounting plate that suits the Arca-Swiss style. RRS, Wimberley and many others make plates that will fit but the are not the same size as the Arca-Swiss. When using these plates on the C1 with the flip lock you have to adjust the jaw setting and grip friction(a little thumb wheel) to suit each type of plate. If you only use one plate that is fine but if you use a few different plates then you may end up having an accident one day. So just use one type of plate and since the Arca-Swiss plate is made for the head why not use these?

Q: 2. I'm looking for a protective cover for the C1 that I can use while the head is still on the tripod. Any suggestions?

A: You could use the following wrap on the Arca-Swiss C1 Cube Geared Head with Arca Classic Quick Release with GP (Geared Panning) to protect the head while attached to the tripod legs: https://bhpho.to/3UP524T

Q: 3. Thanks Rob. Is there a L bracket that you suggest that will be able to take the full load of the tripod head, camera, filter systems, flash etc? It can become rather heavy. Alind.

A: The L bracket slides into the top of the head, so the load of the head has no bearing. I'm not sure which camera you have, as there are specific ones for different cameras or universal ones as well. If you go to our website and enter your camera and then "L Bracket" afterwards in the search box, they will all come up.

Q: 4. How to adapt it to my a bunch of RRS stuffs? May I have your suggestion? For example, RRS Nordal slides(MPR192 CLII), RRS pano clamps....

A: The clamp on the C1 Cube is Arca compatible so it can work with RRS accessories.

Q: 5. Is there a serial # on this item?

A: Unfortunately, the Arca-Swiss C1 Cube Geared Head with Arca Classic Quick Release with GP (Geared Panning) does not have a serial number.

Q: 6. Will this hold the OLY 2.0 teleconverter ?? Or, does OLY have one just for the2.0 model. J. Payne

A: There doesn't seem to be a case for the 2x converter according to Olympus's website. Optech makes a nice pouch, click the link below to view; https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/902989-REG/OP_TECH_USA_7801022_Fold_Over_Pouch_251_2_5_X1_5.html

Q: 7. RRS plate has two safety screw on bottom. If I put RRS plate on C1 cube’s clamp, does the safety screws lose its original function? Is the bottom of RRS plated going to be scratched or clashed? I would like to purchase C1, but not sure if it could work with RRS rail/plate perfectly? If it cannot, can I swap out Arca Swiss clamp and install RRS clamp on C1 head easily?

A: The safety stops seen on the Cube are primarily for the Slidefix QR system and do not interfere with Arca-Swiss plates typically. In this case, the RRS plate's safety screws will prevent it from sliding on, so you'd have to remove them. The Arca-Swiss clamp on the cube is replaceable, but the mounting screw might not be completely compatible with the RRS clamp.

Q: 8. What is the difference between the 2.3 and 2.7 lb versions?

A: The heavier Cube has a geared panning.

Q: 9. Will the 2.0 teleconverter fit in this ???

A: Yes, the Olympus LSC-0603 Case for MC-14 1.4x Teleconverter, B&H # OLLSC0603, is the original replacement lens case also included with the purchase of the Olympus MC-20 M.Zuiko Digital 2x Teleconverter.

Q: 10. why is this model more expensive? what's the difference with the other ones? Is there a geared panning version with the flip-lock system? Thanks!

A: This one is more expensive because it is designed more beefy to have a higher payload. The one with the flip-lick system is BH #ARC1CQ.
