from 4557 reviewsExcellent drum throne which really changed how I approach playing the drum kit.
I mistakenly ordered the 4 legged version, but was able to quickly and conveniently switch to the 3 legged version with the help of the awesome folks at Drum Center of Portsmouth. Thanks again for the great service, and quick shipping.
Sound and “punch” of the Ludwig maple bass drum is fantastic!
One of a kind appearance. Sounds great.
I purchased all 3 of the Tycoon Agile Travel Congas from you. My first order was for the 11" Quinto & 11 3/4" Conga, as soon as I unpacked them - set them with-in a center pulled snare drum stand and started playing I immediately went to your site and ordered the 12 1/2" Tumbadora. No question. I was totally blown away. Their musical voice is truly with-in the range of what you get out of a traditional full size conga. I have been performing / recording on Congas for 47 years. Long before there was so many options like there is now, I used Remo Lap Congas on LIVE Dates locally, toured around the US and even some recordings. They did the job but due to their physical make up (open and 10" diameter) I was not able to get the conga sound and texture. They simply represented their own thing - which rose to every occasion that I was using them in. But, I have continually been looking for this exact item that Tycoon has accomplished brilliantly. I was literally set to essentially sacrifice a full set of wooden Congas and bring them to a professional wood worker and do what Tycoon has accomplished. No - these instruments don't and can't possess the ambient quality of a full size drum - but they are incredible. The quality of the build, the quality of the tuning, and the quality of the sound that come out and even the beautiful resonate quality that they all possess easy will carry their musical voice on stage in a acoustic environments and as you would do on larger stages and with bigger bands, there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that once miced up - they'll simply going to easily do the job while blowing everyone that hears them away. They really are that great. And will easily save your back. They weigh the same is an average Snare drum and will fit in conventional Snare Cases. Mobility and ease for transport is a non-issue. But for those of us that make a living utilizing more hybrid kits then conventional set ups - these are a serious game changer because you can set them up in ways you simply could never do with a set of full size drums. Here's a simple no frills video I created at home just messing around if your interested in hearing them. Flat, No efx, No eq - just tuned them up a bit, hit record and started finding my way with them. One mic - Large Diaphragm Studio Projects B3 in Cardioid pattern. Hope you found this helpful.

I’ve had drum racks before and they are all nice but I prefer DW because of the quality and availability
I am truly, truly impressed by this snare and its brothers. It is one of the cheapest drums available (from a reputable manufacturer) but punches way above its weight. The drum has a bright, crisp tone perfect for virtually any style of music. It’s ten brass tube lugs help with the tone and make precise tuning a breeze. The strainer and butt plate are class leading. The snare wires are snappy and responsive. It’s a great Ludwig snare, period. If you’re looking to upgrade your kit, this is a great way to do it, whatever size you choose.
Great drum, great sound, easy to tune!
Thanks!
Very light indeed. Sturdy. Strong. Light.
I've always been able to tune well by ear. But some drums present a challenge to tune and Tunebot studio has risen and overcome those hurdles. It was very easy to learn...turned it on and started using it. Almost no learning curve to speak of (I had tried a Drumdial and hated it). Tunebot delivers and does what it claims to do....and my drums are sounding great!
dark under tones very articulate great all around crash for any type of music
Extremely high quality and functional mount
Love the sound of this Paiste Swiss splash.
Sounds great came with awesome heads that sounded good to me so kept them on but it was a great decision to add them to my New Tama Starclassic ai bought there!Great experience!All pro's an if ya swing in tell Stefen Todd said hi!
