“I’m possibly the world’s worst woodworker. (Measurements and levels? Who needs those silly things?!) But after watching Guerrilla Drum Making, I’m pretty sure even I could manage to follow this super clear and logical process to constructing a sweet, one-of-a-kind drumset. Well done, guys!”
-Michael Dawson
Associate Editor, Modern Drummer Magazine

“This professionally produced drum making DVD goes straight to the heart of drum building…in an elegant way that is easy to digest, and put to practice. It takes a grass roots approach that saves people time and money, and shows how to make professional custom drums…..just like the big boys.”
-Eric Warman (E-Dog)
Founder of Ghostnote.com

“Very well done, and very good guerrilla methods. The name of the video says it all.”
-Tyler Hauth
Ego Industries, Inc. / Ego Drum Supply

“Finally, a quality resource for drum building information and techniques! For many years I have had customers ask me if I knew of any books or instructions on how to build drums…now I have something to recommend.

A person with no prior building skills can save big money, and end up with a kit of better quality than many of the custom builders of today offer. With bearing edges cut by Precision Drum, the end result will have ultimate sound quality! Not only is Guerrilla Drum Making a great resource of information, but it is also extremely well produced.It’s done in an easy to understand way, with excellent camera work and clear, well thought out explanations.”
-Gary Folchi
Owner of Precision Drum Company

“An excellent video guide to get any new or intermediate drum builder
up and running in a creative way. FIVE stars!”
- Andy Foote
Drum Supply House/DrumMaker.com

“Guerrilla Drum Making demystifies the process of customizing drums and—most important of all—gives you the knowledge and confidence to do it yourself. While watching the DVD, you’ll soon be thinking, “I really can do this.””
-Scott

“The Guerrilla Drum Making DVD would have been a must-see for me if it had been available before I attempted MY project. I would have bought it on the spot, no question. There is no other instructional DVD like it, and I could have certainly used this excellent preview of the things I was about to attempt with my own drums.”
-Thomas Given
Inspiration for the “collage” drum (as seen in Guerrilla Drum Making)

“It’s a great DVD…Professional production and easy to follow… with impressive results.”
-Henrik Gustafson
Trumslagaren Online

“The different chapters you have picked make a lot of sense… and the amount of time and energy you put into this is evident.”
-Ted
Owner and fine woodworker, Roarockit/www.roarockit.com

“As an owner of vintage drum kit, I was immediately drawn to the idea of customizing a single drum or even designing my own custom kit. The tools required are nowhere near the expense that I would have guessed.”
-Robonzo

“To my knowledge I don’t think there is anything else like this out on the market and I think the makers have carved a niche in the market. More and more drummer out there are turning to the custom made drum companies and are looking for something a little more personal when spending their hard earned cash, so why not build your own?”

What Guerrilla Drum Makers Are Saying

“Your DVD cleared out a lot of doubts I had about drum building techniques and tools. You simplified and explained things that, at first, seemed impossible to make on my own.”
-Miguel B.C., Brazil

“It’s definitely shown me a lot of new tips I never would have thought of, especially the way you mark out lug spacing using a hoop and head.”
-Liam, United Kingdom

“I found the dvd useful, reinforcing, and provoking for future exploration. It also reminded me how much more there always is to learn!”
-Francis, Calgary Alberta, Canada

“This video is great!!! After watching it, i knew i could build custom drums. i just finished my first snare drum and it looks amazing! Thanks GDM!!!”
-Mike, North Carolina, United States

“It is the best thing that I’ve seen for the construction of custom drums.”
-Cristian, Argentina

“It’s fantastic! For me it is very useful to see visual images of the building process.”
-Jos, Netherlands

“Thank you Guerrilla Drum Making, for further inspiring me with insight, helpful tips, and EXCELLENT vocal descriptions on how to NOT mess up or fall behind in making the perfect drum.”
-Micah, Massachusetts, United States

“I have absolutely NO woodworking skills. My Dad has been building canoes his whole life. We both watched the video and were blown away! We decided to test the veneering technique with the iron on my old Pearl rack tom that we peeled the laminate off. For never doing a veneer on a drum before… the results are great. I’ll let you know how the new kit turns out with brand new birch shells wrapped up with quilted maple.”
-Brian, Havi, Hawaii

“You have inspired me to see this more as an artistic endeavor than a craft.”
-Dennis, Nevada, United States

“The DVD’s great and has given me some fantastic insight into what I need to do.”
-Jakey, London, United Kingdom

“Very clear, easy to understand presentation. Great for someone like me who has never been particularly handy around tools. By the end I’m thinking, “I could do that.” I always thought it would be cool to buy shells and create my own kit. I feel like I have plenty of information now to guide me through that.”
-Howard, California, United States

“This is definitely new ground for drummers who want to become intimately familiar with their instruments.”
-Mike

“I’m glad that someone took the time to make a DVD that shows noobies, like myself, some of the ways to build custom drums.”
-Scott, Kentucky, United States

“The quality of the shots, narration, descriptions and approach are flawless. I’m sure it’ll be something that I’ll watch over and over again like a favorite movie.”
-Stephen, Massachusetts, United States

“It was nice to see a video image… rather than reading blogs.”
-Jeff, California, United States

“Wow… there was so much information on this DVD. I always thought drum building was hard, but this DVD showed how easy it is just using household items.”
-Victor, Idaho, United States

“I was sold in the first five minutes… just by the various jigs he shows you how to make. It’s definitely geared toward builders without a ton of experience or equipment (like me), but I think even old hands will be able to pick up a tip or two.”
-Greg, Texas, United States

“Great work! I did finish carpentry and cabinetry for years, and GUERRILLA DRUM MAKING purposed some sweet ideas”
-Nathan, Salt Lake City, United States
