The Jim Kilpatrick Standard Bass Drum Carrier is the only pipe band bass carrier developed specifically to support correct posture and playing position, delivering exceptional comfort and freedom of movement while promoting healthy posture. Lightweight and collapsible, it is designed for ease of transport and storage without compromising strength or stability, making it well suited for both rehearsals and performances.
 
Engineered to give the pipe band bass drummer the ideal playing position, the carrier features an advanced sliding bass drum platform that allows precise height adjustment for optimal balance and control. Fully adjustable standard magnesium shoulder supports work in conjunction with advanced Contour Hinge technology to provide a secure yet natural fit that moves with the player.
 
The innovative “Starship” bracket incorporates a sliding height adjustment system and is constructed from ultra-light, highly durable materials, ensuring long-term reliability under demanding conditions. The design is so advanced that it is protected by multiple patents recognising its innovation and engineering excellence. Please note that the standard bass cushion is not covered under warranty.
 
A high-tension drum key is required to adjust all Jim Kilpatrick carriers. This is not included with the carrier but can be purchased separately.
