    In this drum collab with Stephen Taylor we had a little too much fun testing some snare drum cases. I'm sure whenever researching what drum cases to buy you all have been in the same predicament as us: which one protects my drums the best, and also do I need a case to begin with? We decided to do our own drum case test and see who makes the best drum cases. We put an SKB, Gator Protector, and Humes & Berg (all hard cases, since we knew soft cases wouldn't survive) to the test! All of the cases are in the $120-130 price range, so you think the all would function the same, but man, the DON'T. We started with a drop test at roughly 4', 6', then 20ish'. Then we chucked them out of a moving tuck, pulled them behind a moving truck, and finished off with the industry standard flame thrower test. Most faired pretty well, but there was one clear winner in the end! But what would happen during these tests if there WASN'T? That needed to be answered too!
    The snare at the end is still one of those cheap amazon snares that I had lying around from over the years. I did rewrap it with a bunch of green sparkle wrap scraps that were too small for any size drum, so theres like 6 seams on it lol. It may look nice, but its not...

    And this is why I’m a loyal supporter of Humes & Berg cases. I have been using them for 25 years. Started with soft tuxedo bags and have various Enduro hard cases for touring. The only negative I have are the NEWER soft tuxedo gear bags. Too many stitch rips/holes/strap fails but other than that I’ll always recommend them first and foremost.

    We'd driven all day to play a show at the Whiskey. Our gear was in the back of a an old Ford pickup. As we made a hard turn I looked back just in time to see my 10x14 tom go flying out
    and impacting a curb and bouncing a couple of times. The fibre case did its job and the drum was playable. A few weeks later in a studio it took awhile to figure out why it was un-tunable!!!
    Remounting one of the lugs fixed that problem. Good times.

Yamaha Fieldcorp is a good place to start. I had 20x14 kick, 14x14 and 16x14 bass drums as toms sound pretty great. A marching snare will always sound like a marching snare tho.
