Detail 01
16 in. sizing
Measure your drum's outside rim diameter, not the head. A 16 in. drum with a wide rim can run tight.

What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Soft padded shell
Absorbs bumps and keeps sticks and zippers off the head. Not rated to survive being sat on or checked as luggage.
Detail 03
Gig bag format
Lighter and easier to store than a hard case. You trade crush resistance for portability.
Detail 04
Black exterior
Does not show scuffs. Also absorbs heat, so avoid leaving it in a hot car with a natural skin head inside.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Drum not included.
- 02Measure rim diameter and depth. Deep frame drums can exceed the bag's profile.
- 03Tippers and tuning keys may need to travel separately.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will a 14 in. bodhran fit?
Yes, with room to spare. A smaller drum will shift inside, so pad the gap if you are carrying it far.
02Is it padded enough for flying?
No. Treat this as carry-on or hand transport. Checked baggage handling calls for a hard case.
03Does it fit an 18 in. frame drum?
No. It is cut for 16 in. An 18 in. drum will not close properly and forcing it stresses the seams.
04Can I store the drum in it long term?
Short term storage is fine. For natural-skin heads, avoid damp or hot spaces where the skin can loosen or crack.
