The Drum Corner provides private drum lessons, sales of high quality percussion gear, and services including drum tuning and repair.
Located in Fairport, NY (Rochester), The Drum Corner features some of the top names in the world of drums, cymbals, and percussion accessories including the latest drum books, videos, and DVDs.
My goal as a drum retailer is to provide my customers with the following:
1. The top name brands in the world of percussion including: Noble & Cooley, Fibes, Zildjian, Istanbul, Wuhan, Remo, Evans, Aquarian, Attack, DW, Gibralter, Cannon, Vic Firth, Regal Tip, Pro Mark, Vater, LP, Toca, Roc-n-Soc, and more.
2. Competitive discount pricing.
3. Information. Drawing upon my 30 years experience as a professional drummer and teacher, I am able to help each customer choose the right brand, size, and model to fit each musical situation and budget. And if I can’t get it for you, I’ll send you to someone who can.
4. Drum Tech/Tuning Service. I can help you get the sound you’re looking for. Choosing the right heads for your drums and your style of music is just the beginning. With over 25 years of recording studio experience, I can get your drums ready for the studio or that next big gig.
And I can show you the “little tricks of the trade” that will make it easy for you to do the same. My studio clients include the world class Studios at Linden Oaks (Rochester), G.F.I. Studios (Ontario), OhmCo Studios (Rochester), and the former Dajhelon Studios (Rochester). I’ve also prepped the drums for studio legends Steve Gadd (James Taylor, Eric Clapton, Paul Simon), and Ralph Humphrey (Frank Zappa, Don Ellis). I’ve also worked with producers Eddie Kramer (Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin), Godfrey Diamond (Lou Reed, Aerosmith, Billy Squire), and Jeff Tyzik (Doc Severinsen, RPO Pops, Prime Time Funk).
