Drum stuff for sale

The drum experts

I have been playing drums since I was 11 years old in 1959, OK go ahead work out my age ! My dad bought me my first kit... a Gigster bass drum, a Premier Dominion Ace snare drum and a marching band snare drum which I converted to a floor tom tom. I set to work trying to make it sound like the drums I heard on records by the Shadows , Beatles & the Rolling Stones. Not an easy task with the tools at hand but I got close.

Since then with updates to my drum kits I have become well versed in restoring these great vintage kits to their original condition.

I take great pleasure in carrying out this work and even more pleasure in selling them on to appreciative drummers who are aware of the qualities of vintage drums. I specialise in Premier and Olympic . However I am equally adept with Rogers, Ludwig, Slingerland ,Gretch etc. Even newer makes such as Pearl & Yamaha. All repairs large or small undertaken.
