SEX DRUMS ROCK AND ROLL

About Me

A snap on the snare reverberates, a roll on the toms thunders heralding the emergence of Thrust Drums, a company that specializes in custom designed and crafted drum kits for the experienced rock drummer. These classic drums emphasize function over flash, focusing on creating a massive sound with a streamlined design. The workmanship is apparent in the look, feel, and sound of the drums. These are kits that shout for attention, not because of gilded designs or gimmicky features, but because of the ear-splitting, no frills thump that is indicative of the classic hard rock drummer.Thrust Drums is a company with a definitive and unique vision that offers the highest quality product with all the extras of a custom design. This includes hand selected wood, artistically cut bearing edges, and personally wrapped, sealed, and finished drums. In addition, Thrust uses stainless steel aircraft quality fasteners minimizing vibrations and adding aesthetic appeal. The two founders, Mario Santillan and Toby Semain, both veteran drummers of the Los Angeles area, grasped the opportunity to fill a noticeable void in the drum manufacturing industry. Each project undertaken by Thrust Drums, whether a set made for an internationally recognized touring drummer or a garage band on the rise, is completed with meticulous precision.One of Thrust's primary goals is to establish and cultivate camaraderie with the customer, something that is sorely missing from larger, standardized, factory-based percussion companies. Having played on drum sets of varying sizes and sounds, Mario and Toby focus on the final assembly of each kit with the intention of finding a balanced and cohesive resonance that thrusts the drummer and the drums into the forefront. Careful consultation with each customer ensures that Thrust Drums will design and make the ideal drums to suit your rock n' roll needs.
