In-stock TreeHouse Drums serve many different purposes. Some live on the store floor at Supersonic Music, others have been backline gear at gigs, while others are brand new sealed in a box. Therefore, all in-stock drums on our website are placed into one of the following categories.

NEW: Drums that have been built new, pictured, and put in boxes for shipping. In some instances, we make brief demo videos and sound samples of new drums, so you might find a few stickmarks. New drums come with our full manufacturer’s warranty.
NEW-DEMO: Drums that have been on display on our retail floor. Folks have been allowed to test play--but not abuse, but the drums haven’t been out of the store. You might notice a few stickmarks and a smattering of 100-year-old-building dust, and you'll get the benefit of the full new warranty.
BACKLINE: Drums that have been played on stage. One of TreeHouse's main ways of getting the word out is to put drums in the hands of highschool and college students on stage at jazz festivals, providing a kit for that benefit concert, or renting a kit to a touring band for an evening's show. All BACKLINE items share the facts that they've been well-maintained in house, and they come with our warranty as though they were new, excluding minor cosmetic signs of use, for less fundage than new builds.
USED: Drums that have been owned by someone else in the past. Although "Used" can mean something cared-for like a newborn baby or an unplayed/returned gift all the way to barely salvageable, all USED drums share the fact that they don't come with our manufacturer's warranty.
