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.
