Ahead 14"x6.5" Snare Drum Armor Case Hybrid Hard Case AA3006H

Description

Essential Information About Ahead Armor Case Hybrid Hard Cases

  • High-level hybrid protection: combination of an ABS shell and multi-layer PDX-CORE padding to absorb shocks.
  • Field durability: 600-denier polyester exterior, reinforced corners, water-repellent treatment against rain.
  • Precise fit: patented TRUFORM teardrop shape to conform to the "true shape of the drum" and its mounting systems.
  • Easy transport: reinforced handles, shoulder strap, and Velcro-closure ID holder.

Historical Context and Positioning Within the Range

Ahead has established itself with its padded cases recognized on tours and in studios. The Hybrid Hard Case series sits between classic soft cases and rigid flight cases: it aims for the best compromise between protection/weight/size, providing a semi-rigid structure more secure than gig bags without reaching the bulk of a full-shell hard case.

Who This Case Is For

Designed for mobile drummers, these cases are suitable for students and semi-professional musicians as well as professionals in rehearsal, studio, or on tour. Their versatility fits all styles-rock, pop, jazz, metal, funk-whenever reliable protection is required for frequent travel.

Features and Innovations

The PDX-CORE core combines three layers of high-impact laminated foam and an ABS plate approximately 0.210 inches (about 5.3 mm) thick to create a semi-rigid barrier against shocks and crushing. Inside, the premium Sherpa fleece lining protects finishes and chrome hardware. The TRUFORM teardrop shape ensures a natural fit that accounts for modern shells and mounts. The weather-resistant 600-denier polyester exterior is complemented by reinforced handles, a shoulder strap, and a transparent ID holder with Velcro closure.
