Thank you so much for putting it together, it really does make a big difference. I want to tell all my drum friends about it, but at the same time, I kind of don't want to (so they don't find out where I get my tips from), but, nonetheless, I have told quite a few people.I had many questions and self-doubts about attempting a build, but after reading the e-book, I have nothing but confidence, and my first build (an 8" tom) was a great success!"Thanks again, Jimmy Shand"I really enjoyed your book and I did actually use it, I built a snare drum. Nothing fancy, just used the basic information to build a basic drum, it was very informative and did help me with all the details I needed. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to build a single snare to a full double bass set. In fact I plan to build a complete set next summer and will use Drum Building Secrets again! Thank you."Mauricio V. Cordova, TXDrum Building Secrets will give you the knowledge you need to speak intelligently about how drums are built. There is nothing more satisfying than building your own drum kit.
