The Pro 1 drum bags I got from Beato are just outstanding beyond compare! The outer shell is made of thick and durable fabric that protects against moisture, the seems are sewn with thick thread in perfectly straight lines, the zippers are some of the heaviest and strongest I have ever seen on any sort of instrument bag, but they zip smoothly, the inside is nicely padded and has enough room and give to house the hardware on the outside of each drum. They fit my Ludwig Classic Maple kit like a glove! I am incredibly impressed and totally happy with my bags. Now, add in the fact that the company and Fred himself are super responsive, professional, friendly, quick, and capable (AND local!), and I am a big fan and loyal customer already. I will use them for any need they can fill for me. I think I am going to get one of their drum mats (called a "bed" on their site), a custom cover for a vintage amp, and probably a hardware bag. Their prices are very low for the toughness, fit, and finish they produce, so I cannot image trying to buy these things anywhere else. Thanks Fred and Beato crew!!

The best! Pro 1 series bags are the best soft cases, period. Saved my drums from the rain. The Tom combo bag always saves me a trip to the car. About to order another for 16” bass drum and snare.
