CUSTOM DRUMS... With A Difference. THEY SOUND

HUGE!!!

We've been producing custom built drum kits for over 30 years, so we've learnt a thing or two
along the way. One of the most important factors in building a custom drum is to understand
the drummers needs from the beginning.

A cracking, yet full bodied snare drum to cut through a wall of guitar? A wide open tom sound?
Controlled sustain?

Through our technical knowledge and playing experience (yes we're all drummers here), we
can advise on the best type of Sleishman drum/kit that will best suit your needs... and then

musical setting(s) that the drum is going be played in.

All Sleishman custom drums are built to order out of only the finest materials.

*Sizes- We can do everything from 6" toms to 18" Floors. 16" to 26" Bass Drums.

* Finishes... Totally custom here as well. Our professional spray painter can match just about
any colour or finish type. WE DO NOT WRAP SHELLS. So any finishes associated with wraps
would have to be taken on a case by case basis.

*Powder Coating... We can color coat hardware. Just remember it doesn't last as long as
chrome.

Our snare shell diameters range from cracking 10” effect snares through to full- bodied 14”
drums and standard depths range from 3” to 8” (increasing by depth increments of 0.5”).

With a wide array of premium Australian hardwoods at our doorstep, we can create a snare
drum second to none.
