Who in your opinion makes the best rack case for touring?

SKB?

Road Ready?

If no budget is concerned the very best possible road case money can buy is the Kriz-kraft by A and S cases.

I had them take my Kriz Kraft to the next level by making the front and rear rail adjustable plus I had them install a swing open plexi glass door on the front so people would stop messing with my presets and bumping knobs. Before anyone asks yes there is plenty of ventilation and no the power amps do not get hot because of the plexi glass door on the front.

I like Anvil the best---might not be the cheapest though.

I think your best bet is check on Ebay for 350 dollars you can get a lot of rack.

I really like gator but after some time the latches wear out :\
Id go with ATA cases I believe thats the name of the company

Considering bang for the buck, these are really hard to beat.

Mesa Boogie racks are good. Plenty of ventilation, shock absorbing, wheels, telescoping handles...heavy.

If you are looking for the best, IMO you'd be better avoiding the ABS plastic ones (gator/SKB etc).

There are a lot of good heavy duty ones out there, like Anvil and Road Ready. While these are excellent, you can get similar quality cases built locally (generally), for much cheaper.

My money would go on any ATA300 (IIRC) spec'd case, as (again, IIRC) those are the highest rated. Anything similar should be fine too. Basically anything with thick coated wood panels (sometimes even metal ontop of the wood) and metal frame work, ball corners & recessed handles etc.

I use a RoadRunner, seems pretty solid, not too expensive.
