Gator GPC2218BD Grooves Roto-Molded Bass Drum Case with Padding (22 x 18")

Built for Serious Drum Protection and Transport
Designed to hold a 22 x 18" bass drum, the Gator GPC2218BD Grooves Roto-Molded Bass Drum Case provides high-performance protection for drummers who demand durability and convenience. Built with heavy-duty materials and precision-fitted interior padding, this case is tailored to safeguard your kick drum from the bumps, scrapes, and impacts of life on the road or in storage. It offers a secure fit for your drum, including attached mounting hardware, with a combination of structural integrity and smart storage features.

Durable Roto-Molded Shell for Touring and Storage
At the heart of this case is its rugged roto-molded polyethylene shell, engineered to resist cracking, warping, and impact damage. This tough exterior construction makes the Gator Grooves line ideal for drummers who tour regularly or those needing long-term storage protection. Whether you're tossing your drum in a trailer or stacking it in a warehouse, this case stands up to real-world abuse.

Micro-Velvet Interior Padding Protects Shell Finish
Inside the case, your bass drum rests on a padded micro-velvet lining that cushions every inch of contact. This interior is designed not only for comfort but for cosmetic preservation—it helps guard your drum’s finish from scratches and wear during transit. The lining is double-stitched and wrapped over the edge of the case lip, ensuring it stays secure even after years of loading and unloading.

Heavy-Duty Straps with Locking Buckles Keep Gear Secured
To secure your instrument during transport, the GPC2218BD features three heavy-duty 2" straps with locking high-tension buckles. These straps are built to last and are positioned for optimal load distribution across the drum, helping to prevent unwanted movement or rattling while you’re on the move. The included side carry handles provide ergonomic handling when loading into vehicles or carrying short distances.

Smart Stackable Design for Efficient Storage and Transport
Gator engineered this case with thoughtful stackability in mind. The molded design channels align perfectly with pedestal feet, allowing multiple cases to interlock securely during storage. Rear-aligned stacking ensures a flush fit against walls or gear racks, reducing wasted space while enhancing balance when rolling gear on dollies or carts.

Made for Gigging Drummers, Backline Techs, and Studios
Whether you're a working drummer, a backline technician responsible for protecting client gear, or a studio owner looking to store premium drum gear, the GPC2218BD offers a strong mix of reliability, ease of use, and protective performance. It’s optimized for standard 22” x 18” bass drums, with added internal room for mounted hardware.
