Protection Racket 22" Gong Case
Protection Racket's 22" Gong Case (7279-42) is purpose-built transport protection for large gongs and cymbals, matching the rigid construction standard of Protection Racket's Proline drum cases. The headline feature is the fully adjustable, padded ergonomic rucksack straps, which transform a traditionally awkward object into a wearable load. This design acknowledges that touring musicians and session players need equipment that travels efficiently without compromising protection.
Internal dimensions measure 23.5" × 3.5", providing clearance beyond the 22" shell size to accommodate hardware fixtures and fittings without binding. The case construction mirrors Protection Racket's drum-case specifications, meaning the shell protection and lining quality are battle-tested across professional touring contexts. The padded rucksack straps distribute weight across both shoulders, critical for players who regularly transport large gongs from studio to venue or between sessions.
Availability across thirteen sizes–from 20" through 50"–makes the range suitable for ensemble players, world-music specialists, and contemporary classical performers working with varied gong collections. The consistent 3.5" internal depth across all models ensures predictable fit and handling characteristics regardless of gong diameter selected.
