I do not know where to find the covers that usually come with the pit instruments. I need to know if anyone knows of a place they sell them.

Call up the local Yamaha/Pearl/Ludwig rep and ask.

Well the only local people around here is Innovative. I have called the local music stores and they said they can't help me.

Just get some moving blankets then. I would think that you would be able to order covers through the Yamaha/Pearl, etc. catalogs though?

Yeah we did that in band camp. It worked out great. Just get some old blankets or towels, that are long, and safety pins.

As Divalish pointed out, get the movers blankets. You should contact a Uhaul or other moving company in your area and see how much they cost. I don't think they are that expensive. One word of advice on those, get the lighter colored ones as they won't absorb as much heat and transfer it to the keys.

The movers blankets are better than anything besides cases just because they have some padding on them and they are extremely durable.

Well, the only differences between the three are this:

Economy: 15 oz filler/yard
Standard: 36 oz filler/yard
Premium: 38 oz filler/yard

Whatever that means.

The difference in them is how much filler they put in each one. I would think you'd be fine with the standard.
