Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Elite Air hard case for a 20x16 bass drum. For gigging drummers who move a kick regularly and want the upper-tier protection.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Regular gigging where the kick gets loaded in and out weekly
- Van and trailer transport with gear stacked around it
- Drummers who have already damaged a bass drum hoop in transit
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drummers with a 22 in. kick — this is cut for 20x16
- Kits that live permanently in one room
- Anyone wanting the cheapest option; the Classic line costs less
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Elite Air line
Protechtor's upper tier above Classic. The $70 step up over comparable Classic cases buys added protection.
Detail 03
Bass drum case
Largest and heaviest case in a kit. Plan trunk and stage-door clearance before buying.
Detail 04
Hard shell
Protects hoops and lugs from point impacts — the parts that actually get damaged when a kick tips over.
Detail 05
$209.99
The single most expensive case in a typical kit set. Bass drums are the most costly drum to replace.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure the kick shell, not the head or hoops, before ordering
- 02Spurs and mounted hardware may need to come off to close the case
- 03Holds the bass drum only — pedal, tom mount and hardware need separate cases
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will a 22 in. bass drum fit?
No. This case is built for a 20 in. diameter shell. A 22 will not go in. Order the case that matches your kick size.
02Is Elite Air worth the extra over Classic?
If the drum moves weekly or travels with other gear stacked on it, yes. For occasional local moves, the Classic line covers it for less.
03Do I need to remove the bass drum spurs?
Often yes. Retract or remove spurs and any tom mount so the case closes without strain on the shell hardware.
04Does the pedal fit inside?
No. This holds the drum. Pedals, hardware and cymbals need their own bags or cases.
