Gator GPC1007 tom case vs Gator G-TOURQU5-NDH mixer flight case: which should I buy?

Published · Last updated

Buy the Gator GPC1007 for a 10 x 7 tom, or the Gator G-TOURQU5-NDH for an Allen & Heath Qu-5 or Qu-5D mixer. These cases protect different gear, so choose by fit rather than price.

The Gator GPC1007 Grooves Tom Case is intended for a 10 x 7 tom, with a best listed new price of £60. If that matches the drum you need to transport, it’s the relevant option here.

The Gator G-TOURQU5-NDH is a flight case for Allen & Heath Qu-5 and Qu-5D mixers, with a best listed new price of £225. Choose it if you need a case for either of those mixers, not for a tom.

These aren’t competing versions of the same case. Before buying, confirm your drum’s dimensions or your mixer’s exact model against the case listing; the cheaper case is no bargain if your gear doesn’t fit.
