introducing ’s new features We’re all looking for ‘it’...

...the drum set that gives us the feeling we want, every time we sit behind it.

...the right mix of wood for our toms and bass drums, giving us punch and punctuation making every performance memorable.

...the right woods or metals, allowing each ™ snare to speak in an undeniably unique voice Faceoff lugs - at practice, onstage, and in the studio. These solid brass lugs are industrial strength, and hold their tuning precisely - whether under the ghost notes of Marko Djordjevic, or the As ddrum grows and spreads its bombast of . The face of the lug holds a contrasting or focus, worlds of possibility open... matching finish to set off the beauty of each drum in the set - or each snare drum on its own.

...allowing new directions in sonic versatility, gratifying tactile response, and stunning visual beauty.

Our vision is not only of great new products, but a wider, richer range of tones, styles, and personalities.

Never in our 30-year history have we at ddrum been more excited about the direction, diversity or quality of our products. We are thrilled to have you - the player, and member of our ddrum family - along for the ride.

Welcome to your new drum set. ™ Welcome to ddrum. Fixtpitch suspension mounts The Fixtpitch™ mount is as functional as it is beautiful. This simple but elegant design allows the mount to be connected to the outside of the Faceoff ™ lug, not directly to the shell. Fixtpitch™ holds the drum securely, avoiding pitch bend, or interference with projection and tone.
