Gator GPC1408SD Grooves Roto-Molded Snare Drum Case with Padding (14 x 8")

Reliable Protection for 14x8 Snare Drums During Transport
The Gator GPC1408SD Grooves Series Snare Drum Case is purpose-built to keep your 14" x 8" snare drum safe, whether you're loading gear into a van or storing your kit between sessions. Built with touring drummers and gigging musicians in mind, this hard-shell case combines high-impact resistance with plush interior protection, keeping your snare in pristine condition wherever the road takes you.

Durable Roto-Molded Exterior Stands Up to Heavy Use
Constructed with a tough polyethylene shell using a roto-molding process, the GPC1408SD resists dents, cracks, and deformation from rough handling or long-term use. This shell offers dependable protection from drops, pressure, and unpredictable travel conditions, making it a trustworthy choice for demanding performance schedules.

Micro-Velvet Padded Interior Prevents Scratches and Dents
Inside the case, your snare drum rests on a padded red micro-velvet lining that guards against abrasion and impact. The plush interior helps preserve the finish and structure of your snare, while the wrap-over, double-stitched construction ensures the liner won’t separate over time. It’s engineered for peace of mind through repeated load-ins and outs.

Three Adjustable Straps Keep the Drum Firmly Secured
The GPC1408SD includes three heavy-duty 2" straps that wrap around the case to lock it tight. Each strap is equipped with a high-tension buckle that won’t loosen or pop open during transit. These straps prevent the lid from shifting and ensure that your drum stays snug and immobile inside the case.

Optimized for Transport and Handling on the Go
This snare drum case includes dual side-mounted handles for balanced carrying by one or two people. The spring-loaded carry handles return to a flat position when released, reducing snagging and keeping the profile clean for stacking or packing. Whether you're headed to rehearsal or hitting the road, this case is ready for the trip.

Stacking-Friendly Design Saves Space and Adds Stability
Built-in pedestal-style feet and rear-aligned stacking channels make this case compatible with other Gator Grooves models. It’s easy to build a case stack that stays upright and stable in transit or storage, especially when using dollies, carts, or tightly packed vans.
