Based in Santa Cruz county, we tend to be open minded and easy going, but please do not misunderstand; we do
not lack passion.
African, Middle Eastern, Indian, Native American, Asian, South American - we love hand drums from every
corner of the world and know that no instrument in the world can make hair stand at attention like a well-
tuned djembe!
DrumDrTom has a particular passion for making ailing drums whole again. Few things in life are more
rewarding than restoring full voice to a muted djembe. We love to repair frame drums, and are eager to
rehead tablas. With many years of experience making drums, repairing hand drums from all over the world
is second nature to us.
Whatever ills your instrument may be suffering, the prognosis is good. Dr. Tom has taken this oath:
This is no idle promise; it is our mission.
It is unlikely that your beloved old hand drum was created with you in mind. It's more likely that she was born
to a generic context, very possibly en masse. We will consult with you in order to determine your particular
needs--and hers, and we will dedicate ourselves to fulfilling those needs.
When we are done with the repair of your hand drum, she will be one of a kind and she will sound better
than new!
Maybe you're new to drumming or are looking to upgrade to a more serious instrument. We can help you with
that as well. We now offer custom built drums for sale.
