From the reviews
Great area, knowledgeable and nice staff, everything you need under one roof, and for the rare finds they can get you what you want. I have many more trips in store for the Drum Shop in my future!
I can’t say enough about Chris and his shop. You can always expect knowledgeable staff, a great selection and a genuine owner who treats you like family. Chris is always ready to make a trade or sale work and really goes the extra mile for you.
This place is GREAT! Really enjoy doing business here. Chris is a great guy and his entire staff is great to work with. They are both knowledgeable and passionate about drums. They have a great selection and will do their best to help you find exactly what you are looking for.
Best drum shop currently in existence. Over the past 50 plus years of drumming, I’ve done business with many drum shops, some owned by friends. Those went away with the advent of big box music stores.
Lessons at The Drum Shop
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at The Drum Shop. If you're signing up a beginner (or restarting yourself), a quick call ahead answers the three things that matter: which instruments they teach, whether the schedule has openings at the time you actually need, and what a first lesson costs. There's no wrong first guitar — a good teacher will happily work with whatever you walk in with, and a shop that teaches usually keeps affordable starter instruments on hand for exactly this reason.
