{"product_id":"protection-racket-26-gong-case","title":"Protection Racket 26\" Gong Case","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProtection Racket's 26\" Gong Case (catalogue no. 7279–44) is purpose–built to transport large orchestral gongs safely between venues. Engineered to the same structural rigour as the brand's Proline drum cases, this cylindrical hard case accommodates internal dimensions of 27.5\" × 3.5\", providing clearance for hardware and mounting fixtures. The distinguishing feature is a set of fully adjustable, padded ergonomic rucksack straps—a practical consideration for percussionists who need hands–free portability without sacrificing protection.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe case's design reflects heavy–use durability expected in touring and ensemble settings. Its rigid shell construction mirrors Proline specifications, meaning the outer profile is sized around the instrument diameter (26\") while internal capacity exceeds that figure to accommodate the gong's edge binding and suspension hardware. Padding density and strap ergonomics are calibrated to distribute load evenly across shoulders, critical when transporting instruments that can weigh 8–15 kg. The 3.5\" depth provides sufficient width to prevent lateral movement during transit.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch5\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eInternal dimensions: 27.5\" wide × 3.5\" deep for 26\" gong fit.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFully adjustable, padded ergonomic rucksack straps for comfortable carrying.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRigid shell construction matching Proline case specifications and durability.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDesigned for orchestral and ensemble percussion transport needs.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHardware clearance built into internal capacity for edge bindings and mounts.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCompatible with gongs featuring standard suspension brackets and fittings.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCatalogue number 7279–44 for parts and replacement identification.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePortable format suitable for touring and venue–to–venue work.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"manufacturer-site\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor more information, please visit the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.protectionracket.com\/products\/cymbal-cases\/item\/gong-cases\" target=\"_blank\"\u003emanufacturer's website\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Protection Racket","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41580349751354,"sku":"7279-44","price":149.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1764\/4443\/files\/Protection_Racket_26__Gong_Case_1785990859-01.jpg?v=1785990866","url":"https:\/\/gsus4.com.au\/products\/protection-racket-26-gong-case","provider":"Gsus4","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
