Gator GPC2014BD - “Gator Grooves” bass drum case 20" × 14" rotomolded with micro-velvet interior
The Gator GPC2014BD is a hard case from the Gator Grooves series, designed to protect and transport 20" x 14" bass drums with complete safety. Its rotomolded polyethylene shell offers high resistance to impacts and weathering, while the padded red micro-velvet interior (lined wrapped around the edge and double-stitched inside and out) prevents separation with use and protects the shell's finish. It features stacking channels that interlock with the feet of other cases and the signature Grooves aligned rear stacking for added stability on trolleys or vans. For convenient and secure transport, it features three spring-loaded handles (90° stop) and 2" straps with high-tension buckles ; the external metal size plate facilitates identification on stage or in storage. Dimensions verified in the metric system: interior 60.96 × 60.96 × 45.72 cm and exterior 64.77 × 64.77 × 48.90 cm ; weight 7.8 kg .
