A few STUNNERS that debuted at the Las Vegas Drum Show, big kits, small kits, and a COOL Beeswing Solid Snare... it's all in The Latest from TreeHouse Drums! |
So there was this time we were heading to the Las Vegas Drum Show and I wanted to make up something eye-catching, so I pulled out some no-longer-made new hardware, stirred up a new color recipe -- Coral Reef Blue -- all the time remembering Danny and Rusty's visit to the very same city. Or was it Danny and Jimmy? 10x8, 12x8, 15x8, 18x8, 7x8, 8x10, 8x12, 8x13, 16x16, 15x20, 5½x14; plied maple; satin wax. | |
Been a minute since we've made a set of Tube Toms, but the perfect opportunity came up to use up some new hardware that isn't made any more AND try out a new color, Coral Reef Blue. Went with 8" diameters this time. So Nice! 10x8, 12x8, 15x8, 18x8; plied maple; satin wax.

Time to use up some new, but no longer made Gibraltar wood hoops (hence the reduced "demo" price)...on PURPLE! The sizes of this kit reflect what of these magnificent thick maple hoops I had left: 10" and 13" mounted toms, 16" floor tom and a couple of swell 8-lug snares. While we're at it, the mounted toms and main snare are thick while the floor and deep snare are thinner. FUN! 8x10, 8x13, 16x16, 18x22, 5x14, 8x14; plied maple; satin wax. | |

Beeswing Mahogany Solid Snare
| |
You've heard of "Flame This" or "Quilted That," but have you heard of the kind of figuring in wood called “Beeswing?" The only place we've seen this drum's kind of figuring called that is on some high-end custom acoustic guitars. Anyway, this is a Solid, one-ply Mahogany shell with hunks of metal on it you can whack with a stick. 6½x14; solid one-ply mahogany; satin wax.

When you have 10 TreeHouse concert toms, you don’t want your foot to get jealous… so this little thumper is now providing some additional low end to this customer’s set up! Super cool! 6x18; plied maple; satin wax.
