"I've been a huge fan of Canopus snare wires for years. I'm psyched to now be officially part of the family alongside a huge list of great drummers!
Recently I discovered more of their awesome accessories, including the snare belts and bolt tights, plus their metal, fiberglass, and ROF snares...definitely a fan as well!
In 2021, I started playing the Ash Series drums and I'm still looking for the words to express how great they are...live and studio...you have to hear and see them for yourself! Top notch quality craftsmanship in all they do."

"A drummer's cymbal set up is just as important as their drum set. Finding the right sound for a scenario can be a task but Soultone makes that easy. Top notch quality craftsmanship and their wide variety of models has something for everybody!
It was love a first strike for me with their Natural Series. Beautiful, sustaining overtones mixed w/ a sharp cut that works for any genre and volume level, I've been a serious fan of Soultone for years since I first heard them played live and now I'm proud to be an official artist! Live or studio, Soultone Cymbals are the real deal!

"My history w/ Attack Drumheads goes back to junior high when they were recommended to me by the owner of a small, local music store. I was a full-on heavy hitter and they felt bullet proof, giving me all the durability I needed. Had them for years!
Fast forward to now and I'm still finding the same level of craftsmanship. As I've evolved as a drummer i'm enjoying the heads in playing situations of all volumes and intensities. Brushes or sticks the coating wears gracefully and the tone is long-lasting. Looking forward to the new updates and product lines for 2019!"

"I had been hearing good things thru the grapevine about Los Cabos for awhile now. I then got the chance to try out multiple pairs of their sticks w/ a practice pad and was blown away! First impression; durable with a great feel. I then tried the sticks on the set..the rebound and attack potential was on point! The cross stick sound was unreal as well! I'm always focused on my technique and getting the right tone for each playing situation. The LC sticks make it feel so natural for me to achieve whatever I want. Los Cabos Drumsticks have definitely enhanced my playing!"

If your brewing their site give yourself time to look thru all the products as it'll definitely be worth it.
