| Hard
Drum Cases by Humes & Berg Humes & Berg is one of the oldest musical instrument case manufacturing companies. In addition to drum cases they also produce cases for horns, woodwinds, orchestral strings, guitars, electric keyboards and other instruments as well. They are also one of the largest suppliers of school band room accessories such as mutes, sheet music cases, music stands, instrument lockers, stage risers and acoustic shells. (Peeler Drum Center deals in all these products, if interested please inquire) Humes & Berg "Enduro" series hard drum cases are constructed of high quality rotationally molded plastic. They are available for drums of all standard sizes and they will custom cut any case to an odd size for no extra charge. They are available in standard black as well as a variety of exciting designer colors. Humes & Berg "Enduro Pro" series cases are a brand new line of hard cases featuring several enhancements over the original Enduro model. Information and pictures are shown below. For the buyer looking for a more traditional case, Humes & Berg still manufactures their classic "Vulcanized Fiber" series of riveted fiber cases. (*See description at bottom of page) A listing of available Enduro (and in most cases, fiber case) sizes is given below. (Remember Humes & Berg will cut any of their molded cases to a custom size if possible) |

| Humes & Berg Enduro "Companion" cases are perfect for carrying drum stands, pedals and other hardware. They are molded using the same plastic as the Enduro drum cases, and come complete with built in wheels and a pull-out "tilt-and-pull" handle. They are available in various sizes and have strong lift handles and rounded metal corner protectors. |

| For
the individual seeking a more traditional drum case or wanting to add a
case to an existing set, Humes & Berg still manufactures "Fiber"
cases. These cases are made of a high-density Masonite like material
which is riveted together. This is the way instrument cases were
originally made. The "Vulcanized" type fiber cases are
strongest, actually just as resistant to puncture as molded plastic
cases. Keep in mind however, that fiber cases are not water
resistant like molded plastic cases. While they can stand occasional
exposure to a light rain, if they get soaking wet they will warp and
buckle irreparably. *Note*- Fiber cases can be made into custom shapes that are not possible in molded plastic. If you have an odd-shaped or odd-sized instrument, the Humes & Berg fabrication technicians can work from a customers' diagram to produce cases of almost any size or shape! |

| Humes & Berg produces cymbal cases to match their Enduro drum cases as well as their fiber cases. They are available in various sizes. The Enduro cymbal cases are available in square and round versions. Also, a new "tilt-and-pull" cymbal case with built in wheels and pull out handle has recently been added to the Enduro series. |  |
| Humes & Berg produces hardware cases in the hard plastic Enduro series as well as in fiber case versions. They are available in various sizes and can be purchased with or without wheels attached. |  |

~ How to measure your drums for cases ~ |
|
Remember, drum
case sizes are generally referred to in terms of the drum
"shell" size only. This means you should NOT include
the dimensional size added by the drum's rims/hoops, lug casings, tom
mounts or other hardware to your measurements! All major drum
case manufacturers use this "shell size" based form of case
sizing and add extra size to accommodate the size of standard rims, hoops
and hardware. 3. The
case will generally be big enough to accommodate the added size of the
drums rims/hoops, lug casings, tom mounts, and in the case of bass drums,
the "spurs" and "tom mount post receiving
block". *FOR DRUMS WITH "RIMS* " TYPE MOUNTS,
generally an extra 1" is required to be added to the diameter of the
case. 4. Some
case companies list their sizes "depth first" (for example,
16"x22" for a typical bass drum) while other companies list
their drums "diameter first" (22"x16").
These different methods of listing seldom cause a problem in case
purchasing because most drumsets fall into standard size configurations
that are obvious to an experienced drummer or drumshop sales person and
the true sizing of the drums can be deduced fairly easily. |
