Protection Racket 28x12" Marching Bass Drum Case

Protection Racket's marching bass drum cases are engineered to the same rigorous specification as their touring–grade drum cases, combining professional protection with practical handling. The 28” × 12” model (M2816–00) accommodates internal dimensions of 30” × 19½”, providing clearance for hardware and fittings. A defining feature is the pro grip side handles, which improve grip during transport and setup. Weighing under 3.5 kilos, this case prioritises portability without sacrificing structural integrity.

Construction relies on Propadd P2 foam, a semi–rigid material that maintains shape when the case sits empty and open—critical for quick drum entry and exit during rehearsals and performances. The semi–rigid design prevents the case from collapsing under its own weight, reducing setup friction in high–pressure marching situations. Internal dimensions exceed the stated drum diameter to accommodate lugs, bearing edges, and mounting hardware without forcing a tight fit. This approach balances protection with accessibility, a practical consideration for ensemble players managing multiple instruments throughout a season.
