Pelican 1550 Reviews

Pelican makes quality storage and transport cases for equipment.

Solid Case

I have a Roland SPD-SX Pro and this fits perfectly as well as having room to put compartments for power and trigger cables with room to expand for more small accessories. This set-up exceeds any bag or case made specifically by Roland or other third parties because it meets my needs and can fit other people's needs that might be different from mine. I'm pretty sure other case solutions don't have room to leave the mounting bracket on the bottom of the unit whereas with a Pelican case, I can leave it on by plucking out a small hole in the middle for the shaft to go in and then plucking out a shape just big enough for the SPD unit to fit in while still being secure. This saves me set up and tear down time screwing and unscrewing the mounting bracket and keeps me from having to pack a screwdriver as well. All in all, I'm really happy with how this case is working out for my slightly unconventional needs.

No, the Pelican 1550 Case with Foam would not offer enough space for those items. A better option is the Pelican 1560 Case with Foam Set (Black), BH # PE1560FB. https://bhpho.to/3TraNmY

question

Can you fly with this case as a carry on? It looks an inch too wide but I wonder if airlines care.
Asked by: Anonymous
Its larger than the accepted standard for carry-on roller bags in the US. You'll run a very high risk of having it gate-checked. You're safer using the Pelican 1510. I've carried it on countless domestic flights.
