Gator Cases

Initially launched as a small batch of molded plastic guitar cases at the Summer NAMM show in Nashville, Tennessee, Guitar Cases was founded in 2000 by father-daughter team Jerry Freed and Crystal Morris in Tampa, Florida. The product line was expanded from there to include case and bag solutions for pro audio, band instruments, and percussion. Today’s Gator line consists of over 1000 different products that are made from vacuum-formed plastics, rotational-molded plastics, wood, sewn, and EVA materials. Gator’s reputation for expertise in case design and manufacturing has grown and their OEM division works with leading companies around the world to engineer and manufacture custom cases for original equipment manufacturers.

The Gator Mission is to have passion about all of its products, its customers and the markets that it serves. Gator seeks to provide its employees with an energetic, positive work environment that is built on trust, friendship, and respect for each other. Gator desires to be loyal to its customers by offering them the best customer experience. Overall, Gator endeavors to leave the world a better place through commitment to making products as environmentally friendly as possible and by using its production demands to bring social impact and helping to create music makers of the future.

Expansion was inevitable and in 2008, Gator purchased the manufacturing facilities and product line of Protechtor Cases, located in Ft. Wayne, Indiana. This new asset brought state-side manufacturing in rotational molding along with expansion into the percussion market. Investing in US manufacturing is important to Gator. In 2013, Gator announced the new Frameworks line of stands and support systems at the Winter NAMM show. The new line of products featured over 50 innovative and unique solutions for microphone, speaker, guitar, keyboard, A/V, and more. Very well received, the line compliments the existing case line, making Gator an easy choice for all your accessory needs. After being awarded Best in Show Honors at Summer NAMM 2013 and Winter NAMM 2015, it was clear that the Frameworks line of products would be a major and permanent contender in the industry.

One of Gator’s most important years was 2014 when the company moved into a new state of the art manufacturing and distribution facility in Columbia City, Indiana. Gator is perfectly positioned to continue expanding manufacturing in the US while offering best in class distribution with over 180,000 square feet of dedicated space. In 2015, Gator bought Viking Cases, a USA based case manufacturer specializing in custom built ATA rated flight cases. All Viking Case manufacturing was moved from its location in St. Petersburg, FL into the facility in Columbia City, IN. In 2018, Gator acquired Levy’s Leathers Ltd. , one of the world’s most respected names in quality guitar straps.
