FANTASTIC!! I am very happy with my new drum cases. Thank you so much... These are the TRADITIONAL cases, very well made in every way. Replacing a same set from L.A. in the 70.s as I restore my beautiful Gretsch drums. This is their best protection. Great material, perfect workmanship. (workperson ship, haha!) SOFT CASES are fine, but the space is still lost, don't be fooled. If you have a kit worth cherishing, get these. Measure your base drum carefully as the size guide works. My 22inch 16 deep Gretsch base slips in two sizes down. (as diameters are the same in that series.) Wish my 13inch Gretsch snare was a tighter fit, but that's the way the sizes fell!!!
