Roller Roadie

[theduke1]

I have come up with the perfect way to store and transport my gig day gear. while waiting for the flight case for my Temple Duo 17 which has been on back order forever I came across this unit.
It gives me the hard case for my pedalboard and ample space for all my gig day gear. At $106 from Amazon it’s approximately $194 less than the flight case from Sweetwater.
Anyone else gone this route.

I will certainly give a detailed review.
It is compatible to the similar units offered by DeWalt, Craftsmen, & others.

@theduke1 - thanks for posting.
I've seen the videos and many of the reviews. After doing the math and considering the rolling suitcase and multiple small bags I carry today, I'm convinced this will be a benefit.
Ordered. Done.

I’m glad I could help.
I also carry multiple cases, totes, bags, etc.
I got the idea from my son, who purchased the DeWalt unit to use at the goKart track.

@theduke1 - I finally had the opportunity to use my rolling tote yesterday. This was my band's first gig in a year, which just happened to be my city's local Monday Night Concert Series. Photo is prior to sound check:

As you can see, this cart also influenced my purchase of the Phil Jones Bass Cub Pro. The amp easily fits in the largest bin at the bottom - I even used some of the packing material to help cushion the amp when in transit. We perform seated, so the amp sits at ear level which works well (bass is run through the P.A., so the amp is my onstage monitor only.) The other bins hold my collapsible mic stand (which I use to attach a tray and small tablet for my setlist,) guitar stand, all cables, accessories, etc. I was even able to bungee my chair upside down to the cart which made the load-in SOOOOOOO much easier. This unit certainly reduced the back and forth from the car to the stage, and back again.

The gig went well - our first in a year. We played for at least 3,500 people who all enjoyed 90 minutes of Beatles tunes. The crown was definitely back to a pre-pandemic standards which was very encouraging to experience.

Thanks again for your initial post and for turning me on to this useful tool!
