Whats Happening

The Beauty

Taff is giving the new BDB Snare a road test in Copenhagen then Norway
and then maybe Damascus, so does he like it ?

"I`m lost for words................the snare was the best I`ve ever played and I mean that, I don`t know how you do it, you really have "the knack" and that is no bullshit !! I did not do any tuning at all, I left it as you had tuned it, all I did was adjust the snare tension. I took the snare wires right off and slowly tightened them until I got that thump in my stomach, and did I get a THUMP - Wow not half !! a real vintage woody sound, just perfect for my kind of music."
	"I will take the "Beauty" with me next week to Norway, I am doing 3 big concerts where the rest of the band will be fully amplfied, but with that snare I will have no worries at all of not been heard."
"Everyone in the band commented about it, the trombonist who`s two sons play drums, said it was one of the best sounding and loudest snare he had ever heard"
Yeah - Guess he did! Big Thanks to Taff - he just took it out of the box and gigged it - that's some compliment!
	Also a big thanks to Dave Warburton - For advice and supply of that sensational snare throw - Nickleworks Rules! Contact Dave

But I should say - it's Taff's lightweight touring kit - with BDB bits and pieces
makes me kinda proud to be involved with such a pretty result!

Bang and Olufsen or what ?

Gor Blimey!

Just what is happening here ?

Well- to celebrate 25 Years of drum building, I decided to create a completely
new snare - without compromise and sod the consequences!
Stay tuned......

Just because it's beautiful !

Thanks to Mark Cooper for this picture - Mark's new look website is well worth a visit. This is a 1930 Liberty snare. It was made by Slingerland or Ludwig and sold by Liberty Musical Instruments Corp.

Taff on the job!

Ok - He's an engineer! I love it - the whole snare build is being recorded bit by methodical bit - top stuff !

oooooooh! Now if only he had a strainer!

Ladies and Gentlemen - Introducing:

The Drum building Collaboration now has a name - Given that it involves Lenny, Andy and Bob it's not too taxing to work out where that came from ! And maybe there's a little poke at another Drum company that seems to have lost it's direction .....

So what are we up to ? Well here's a Pastiche of our 1st full kit in the bare shell state. It's off to Sunny Hampshire on Monday to get the works from Andy. Lenny meanwhile is scouring the planet for the hardware. I'm starting on the next one and that's not all...watch this space......

We've just turned down an offer for this little "Fusion" kit because Andy will not compromise on his finish - so any potential buyers just have to wait !

Have you checked Bits and Bobs recently - things are selling and there are new listings.

Come on you Blues!

So Mark where are the pictures - so I can complete your drummers page ?

Those drums have a history and I'll tell you all about them when Mark tells me !

And just to even things up - Are also OK with me!
