Manufacture - Customs - Restoration - Hardware He restored this Trixon drumset in "Sky blue Pearl" and played it for while.

In the Summer of 1995, Gerd Stegner found an old Trixon drumset in very bad condition. In Germany, he could not get any new coverings because the manufacturers closed years ago. So he spent a lot of time and money on telephone calls until he found a source for the parts he needed. Many drummers asked him about his new drumset and an idea was born: "When I need such things, why don't sell the stuff

to other drummers and collectors?"
So the company started with coverings. Later Keller drumshells and hardware were the next things in the store. Now we have all the parts you need to build your drum. We also restore and repair vintage or newer drums. And of course, we build custom drums and snares how you want it. Take a look at our store - we have all you need:

Im Sommer 1995 fand Gerd Stegner ein altes Trixon Schlagzeug in sehr schlechtem Zustand. In Deutschland war keine Dekorfolie zum Überziehen zu bekommen .Endlich wurde er in den USA fündig und restaurierte das Set in "Sky Blue Pearl". Durch viele Anfragen ermuntert, gründete er seine Firma "St drums", die sich mit dem Handel und der Restaurierung von Schlagzeugen beschäftigt. Angefangen mit Folie, ging es weiter mit Kesseln und Hardware. Heute haben wir alles, was man zum Bau einer Trommel braucht. Wir restaurieren und reparieren auch Vintage- oder neuere Trommeln.

Two cheap Sonor Performer kits. One big custom drumset.

We took the two cheapest Performer kits we could find and turned them into something completely different.

Inspired by Sonor’s Signature series, we called the result “Almost Signature.”
The shells received veneers on both the inside and outside, new 45° bearing edges, new drumheads and a complete overhaul.
(Full video on our youtube channel)

It’s a perfect example of what we love about working on drums: taking something inexpensive or forgotten and giving it a completely new character.

Sometimes you just need a good idea - and a workshop that knows how to make it happen. 🥁

Many airvents, bigger airvents or a slot in the middle?

We've build a 14x6.5" snaredrum that sounds like the 80s. The slot in the middle allows more air to escape and you receive a louder and dry sound.

The shell itself is a Keller mahogany, but painted red inside because of the matching Delmar Red Onyx drumwrap.

STABIL drumheads feature a particularly rough and long-lasting coating that provides a distinctive playing feel and excellent grip - especially when playing with brushes.

The coating is built to withstand heavy use while maintaining its characteristic surface for a long time.

And with both standard inch sizes and metric sizes available, STABIL heads are also a great fit for vintage drums

STABIL fits every drummer, but jazz drummers and brush players can particularly benefit from the textured coating.
