Truckstop Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 All rack cases tend to be 19" across.... which is handy seeing as rackmount effects and amps etc tend to be also 19" across. One thing you can look at is the depth. Due to new technology, rackmount amps etc are becoming shallower, so it may be worth looking at getting a shallow one as they can be a lifesaver when loading your gear in and out of the car! Gator are probably the best known manufacturer with good reason. Their cases are the wick! Tough, fairly well priced, and they seem to be able to lock in with the vast majority of other plastic based rack case manufacturers which can be handy if you're at a gig and you need to stack amps. Yes, I would get a case with an extra space incase you want to get a multi-fx or a compressor in the mix. I don't think it helps with circulation though. They're design that all the units are taken up! Truckstop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmshaw37 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 i've always had gator, and never had problems with any of them - the main one did 10 years and does the job just as well as when i bought it! the thing i'm considering for the next one is purely aesthetics - the normal rack stuff aint as wide as a cab - so looking at the lined ones that are!

BigRedX Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Remember when measuring up for the depth to allow for having all the leads you need plugged in at the back of the amp and any other racked equipment.
