Going back to your roots. It’s a phrase that you hear so often, you can often wonder what it really means. For ddrum, we have spent time looking back at our last 13 years and evaluating what we have accomplished. Our original goal was to bring drummers unique designs with a boutique feel. We have experimented with wood types and combinations, as well as shell hardware and mounting systems. For 2018, our goal is to apply what we have learned to our most popular and tried and true innovations. Going back to our roots, while putting some new ones down.
