THE BRITISH DRUM CO. STORY
Welcome to the British Drum Co.
We are driven by our passion to create the finest drums and percussion instruments for musicians who recognise and value the highest of standards.
We select the highest quality timbers before handcrafting our shells in our cold-moulding process to maintain the sonic integrity of the wood. Our Palladium hardware graces each drum and every single detail is checked with a forensic accuracy before our exacting quality control signs off the products prior to delivery to our customers.
Our philosophy is based on a rich heritage of British drum-building craftsmanship. We wholeheartedly embrace the timeserved techniques and traditions that are acknowledged to contribute to the finest examples of the craft. However, we are a company that continually looks to the future, placing innovation right at the heart of our brand in order to develop instruments that look amazing, sound amazing and make you feel amazing.

LEGEND SERIES DRUMS
Legend Series - these drums absolutely have the right name! The Legend Series speaks with awesome power and projection in any musical situation. The secret lies in the construction of our drums. Legend Series drums are handcrafted using our unique cold-press moulding with 100% Scandinavian Birch, cross laminated into a 6mm thick shell. Legend’s super-strong shells are precision-cut with 45 degree bearing edges and finished with 2ply reinforcement rings. The results are astounding - naturally lower fundamental tones with immediate attack and deep, controlled sustain.

The versatility of Legend Series is equally impressive. High tuning reveals a crisp delicacy that responds easily to subtle playing, whilst lower tunings bring out the deep punchiness of the bass drum and toms possess an unparalleled low-end growl. These drums sound rich and resonant. However you play - whether on stage or in the studio, Legend Series inspires you to play with real passion.
