Standard Features

All TreeHouse Compact Nesting Kits are built with quality hardware which looks sharp and performs flawlessly!  Stick with the Standard Features shown below, or choose from many available Options and Add-Ons to customize your kit just the way you want it.

Picture
Lugs
Compact Kits feature chrome Bowtie Piccolo Lugs on the snare with Compact Lugs on the toms and bass.
Picture
Hoops
2.3mm triple-flanged hoops on the toms, snare, and bass resonant  provide quality tuning while keeping the drumset light.
Picture
Tom Brackets
The floor tom and mounted tom come standard with Rectangle Sidewing brackets. Their compact design allows the drums to nest easily.
Picture
Floor Tom Legs
Sturdy 10.5mm legs with large rubber tips hold up the floor tom with solid perfection.
Picture
Snare and Bass Brackets
​
When your snare mounts to the bass, the brackets for the Snare Arm (as well the Tom Arm) use single Compact ⅞" brackets.  For 5-pc kits, the Double ⅞" bracket is Standard, and the snare typically is supported on a stand.
Picture
Arms
​
The mounted tom sits on a 10.5mm ball-n-socket on a ⅞" shaft and the snare is mounted to the bass with a  ⅞" multi-angle arm.
Picture
Spurs
Rock solid Folding Spurs come standard with each Compact Nesting Kit.
Picture
Claws
The bass batter side wooden hoop wears sturdy Keyed  Butterfly Claws for low mass, lightweight operation.
Picture
Strainer/Butt
Each snare is outfitted with a Compact Piccolo Strainer and Bridge Butt.
Picture
Color and Finish
Our Standard Compact Kit sports a beautiful Satin Oil & Wax Finish over Natural Maple.
Picture
Heads
Toms: Coated Ambassador batter and resonant.
Snare: Coated Ambassador batter and Clear Ambassador resonant.
Bass: 
Clear PowerStroke batter and Fiberskyn Ambassador resonant [tom head]

Options

 All options below are edits to the Standard Features and are available at no extra charge.  Want something you don't see?  Look at the Add-Ons section for more possibilities.
Picture
Lugs
If ordering a deeper snare to be carried outside of the bass, other snare lugs are available.
Picture
Snare and Bass Brackets
You may choose not to have installed the Standard 7/8" brackets on the bass and snare if you prefer to use your snare on a stand.  Also, the 7/8" bracket can be omitted from the bass if you want to hang your tom from a cymbal stand
Picture
Rim Clips
3 drum key-operated rim clips can be subsitutued on the floor tom for the 3 leg brackets.
(Note: This is a Standard Feature when a 15" floor tom goes into an 18" bass drum.)
Picture
Mounted Floor Tom
You can ditch the legs altogether and mount your floor tom straight to the bass drum shell.
Picture
Spurs
Spider Legs can keep your bass from scooting and add a more vintage flare.
Picture
Claws
Lean towards a more modern look with different claws.
Picture
Strainer/Butt
Would you rather go with a Beer Tap Strainer?
Picture
Color and Finish
Choose from dozens of colors of aniline dye recipes to shade and hue your project just right.  Hardmatte and Matte Waxes are available if you wanna catch a little less light.
​
Picture
Heads
​Choose from anything else Remo makes or anything from Evans or Aquarian (except Aramid Fiber, Kevlar, and other marching heads)
