Drummers – would you be interested in a ‘Green’ drum rack? Even if you are not overly eco-sensitive, you might just love the looks of this great idea from Steve Chizar: a drum-set rack structured from domestically grown bamboo. And Steve crafts these quality racks by hand!
On the Bamboo Drum Rack web site, Mr. Chizar further explains why the racks are truly a 'Green' product.
Rudimental Remedies - John Wooton:
This is a very informative book/DVD combination publication from Dr. John Wooton, percussion professor at Southern Mississippi State University.
The book and video introduces the student to the traditional drum rudiments and expresses them further with appropriate exercises and etudes. Wooton applies the etudes at different tempos and different World rhythm styles.

The Prentice Practice Pad
We now sell the unique Prentice Practice Pad!
This is truly a wonderful adaption of the traditional angled drum pad. With this unit the performer can change the playing surface in three different ways:
- A level surface for marching drummers who perform with their drum on a leveling harness or for anyone preferring a level playing surface.
- A lesser drumming angled surface for the set-drummer or anyone who prefers a drum with a little pitch.
- The traditional acute angle comfortable to those who perform marching on an over-the-shoulder sling.
