Hardcase HN10T - Hard case for 10" tom (telescopic, stackable lid and waterproof polyethylene)

The Hardcase HN10T is a professional 10" tom case designed for intensive touring, school, rental and studio use. Its heavy-duty polyethylene shell is watertight and molded in one piece to maximize rigidity and durability. The telescoping lid adjusts to the shell to prevent looseness and, in conjunction with the buckled strap , keeps the drum securely in place. It features 10mm foam padding inside to protect the finish and a Comfort Grip handle with anti-twist system for comfortable handling. The design is stackable , making it easy to transport the complete set in an orderly manner.
