A photo of the H&B cases, custom made for the Designer kit. I used Cliff's dimensions for his 18 bass, and specified two floor tom cases so that I could make use of the pivoting legs and not have to remove the legs for packing and schlepping.
I don't think I can remember the story in its fullness, but Dave Latz spent an outrageous amount of time getting this order right. Thanks to Dave both for some excellent prices, and for staying with the project until HB got it right. H&B is at least as interesting to deal with as Sonor, and you may need an advocate like Dave to penetrate the corporate shield.
I love these cases every time I use them, although they still don't cart themselves up and down the stairs.
