​½“ thickness of Solid Stave Bubinga Goodness radiates outta this grand instrument!  For a fun project, we made two at the same time featuring the same hardware and same 24-stave tongue-and-groove construction shells.  If your snare doesn't offer enough girth or puncture your audiences' eyeballs enough, get one of these (add diecast hoops if you need to evaporate your audiences' eyeballs...) 7x14; solid stave bubinga; shiny wax.

​Need a Tambora Sinaloense for your Mexican Banda Sinaloense, Tamborazo Zacatecano or Duranguense? This bass drum features a fun 2-color dyed look on a thin Maple shell with satin wax finish, a thin Maple shell with rounded Bearing Edges to bring out all the lows, all chrome hardware, 14 lugs per side with T-rods, metal hoops, and cymbal holder on top. It includes an authentic hand-made felt mallet (Bolillo Temo), top cymbal handle and sounds HUGE! 24x24; plied maple; satin wax.

​I asked Jason about creating a drum that matched the look of my kit, and provides a deep, resonant boom that could approximate an Odaiko/Taiko drum sound in my acoustic kit, without the weight, space and expense of the real thing. We discussed shell diameter, thickness and depth, kit placement, and heads selection to arrive at the design that made most sense. 

The result is beautiful, fits perfectly in the kit, and sounds SO DARNED GOOD! In my big acoustic kit (22 pieces), all made by TreeHouse, this beast of a drum is my current favorite. It allows me to add a massive bottom end to some arrangements, add taiko-like elements to others, or just create a brooding tonal atmosphere. So much fun!!!!

This bass drum features a black dyed thin Maple shell with mottled satin wax finish, rounded Bearing Edges to bring out all the lows, all chrome hardware, 12 lugs per side with T-rods, metal hoops, and cymbal holder on top. It includes an authentic hand-made felt mallet (Bolillo Temo), top cymbal handle and sounds fantastic! 20x24; plied maple; satin wax.

​Here’s a little skinnier (12” deep) and a little thinner (6-ply maple) TreeHouse Tupan that will save your back while producing BIG sounds. BOOM TEK!

​Dial in a little skinnier drum at only 12" deep + a thinner maple shell of 6 plies instead of the typical 8 plies and you get a big boom that won't wear you out the third mile of the parade.  12x24; plied maple; satin wax.

​Yeah, I bet those Thunderbirds will be able to THUNDER with these great maple concert toms! 6x6, 7x8, 8x10, 9x12, 11x13, 12x14, 13x15, 14x16; plied maple; satin wax.

​Here's another idea: set up your concert toms on stands like marching quads!  For the Tonganoxie Chieftains, it works nicely for rehearsals and cheering on the team in the gym.  Go Chieftains! 9x10, 10x12, 11x13, 12x14; plied maple; satin wax.

​What a cool detail: the batter hoop is diecast while the reso head has a 2.3mm triple-flanged hoop.  The artist using this snare likes to play along with the Police sometimes…5x14; hammered brass.
