  1. Hello Barry! Hope all is well.
    This is JohnZ. Percussionist, I was a regular customer for many years before you close your store. I haven’t received a email from drummers world for a long time I through you guys were close permanently.
    Really nice to see you guys are still active, and doing the best you guys do and sale some awesome music instruments. Thank you!

  2. Hi Drummers World,

    I have one of your 2011/2012 16″ Nesting kit and love it.

    Are there any plans to offer Mahogany Nesting Kits in any of your nesting configuration using all Mahogany shells by Keller OR a mix of Keller mahogany and maple shells, for example

    Bass drum: Mahogany
    Floor toms: Mahogany or Maple
    Rack Toms: Maple

    Thanks,

    Paulom

    • Hi Paulom,
      Glad to hear your satisfaction with the Mini- Nesting Kit. Presently we are using maple only and have no plans to use mahogany shells or combinations of mixed woods in the kits. However, if there is a demand, we will surely incorporate the idea.

      Thanks for your inquiry and support,
      Barry

  3. Given that the drums are custom made by hand., what is the expected lead time for delivery? I have a gig May 18th. Is that too tight?

    • The kits’ weights vary according to size. The 20″ packed is approx. 32 lbs. The 18″ is 30 lbs. and the 16″ 28 lbs. Hope this helps.

    • Thank you for your interest. Our shells are 8-ply maple. The thickness is .21 inch which is 5.4mm. Hope this answers your question.
