Rhythm King Drum Company is dedicated to providing drummers with the highest quality hand crafted hard wood drums and shells at very affordable prices.

Our Shells are hand crafted using the finest hard woods available, such as American Rock Maple, Birch, Rosewood, Bubinga, and Mozambique.... hundreds of woods to choose from and each species of wood has it's own unique sound and characteristics.

Our shells are not plywood. We build solid segment shells Stave shells and bent wood Shells. All of our shells are great for bodhran drums also.

Segment shells, stave shells and bent wood shells are superior to plywood shells in several ways. First of all the plies in a plywood shell are dampened by diaphragms of glue between the plies of wood. The average snare shell has approximately 2000 square inches of glued surface.

Our segment shells have less than 75 square inches of glued surface and the surfaces do not create sound inhibiting diaphragms. The result is a louder, clearer and more focused drum sound.

Custom orders are available in virtually all sizes and wall thickness using your favorite hardwoods, hardware and finishes. Raw Shells are also available.

Feel free to contact us about creating your dream kit, or upgrading your existing drums.
