Protection Racket 22" Surdo Case
Protection Racket's Surdo case range applies the same engineering rigour to percussion transport as their Pro Line drum cases. Built to accommodate the 22" surdo's distinctive profile, this case (catalogue 9922-00) offers internal dimensions of 24" × 24½", providing generous clearance for shell hardware and fittings. Propile lining absorbs impact during transit, whilst a padded central carry handle and shoulder strap enable flexible transport options for touring musicians and session players alike.
Construction prioritises protection without excess weight. The 2" of internal width margin beyond the drum's nominal diameter accommodates lugs, bearing edges, and hardware protrusions without compression risk. Propile cushioning throughout the interior distributes shock loads across the case walls rather than concentrating force on the instrument's shell. The dual carry system—handled grip plus adjustable shoulder strap—distributes load dynamically, reducing fatigue during venue transitions or airport transfers where a 22" surdo becomes an awkward object to manage.
Specification alignment matters here. The case's 24" × 24½" cavity sits between the 20" case (22" internal width) and represents the upper range of Protection Racket's surdo-specific inventory. Musicians transporting larger frame drums, tamborims, or other auxiliary percussion alongside a primary 22" instrument should cross-reference the full size range to confirm fit before purchase.
