I've played a LOT of drums over the years, from vintage kits to top of the line brand new kits and pretty much every thing in between. Never have I  been so speechless as when I pulled my Precision drums out of the boxes. The craftsmanship is beautiful, they sound like nothing I've ever played before, and everyone I've dealt with at the company has gone above and beyond the call of duty to make sure I was happy and that the drums were right for me.

So, I've just seen and heard my second Precision Drum kit in the last month or so, and this time, the drummer was kind enough to let me tap around the skins for a bit. It was then that a strange sinking feeling hit me: that of needlessly dropping a ton of dough on my new DW kit. Don't get me wrong, the DWs are a top-flight kit, as is yours...but to have gotten EXACTLY the drums I always wanted, and for considerably less money (...heavy sigh). BTW, those wood hoops of yours are very cool!
I promise you, when it's time to once again assemble my "dream kit," I will look no further than Precision Drum. If only I had known about your company before!
You guys may very well be the best-kept secret in the business...and you deserve to be out front!
Whatever you're doing, keep up the good work. Your product is fantastic.

I am a tone and gear freak! All my gear has to perform at its best and sound its best. Not one drum company has satisfied me... that was until I played a Precision! These drums are loud, unbelievable sounding and can take a beating. Precision Drums has never failed me. I am forever grateful for having such an amazing company support me.

THESE DRUMS ARE THE BEST SOUNDING DRUMS I HAVE EVER PLAYED, AS WELL THE MOST  BEAUTIFUL DRUMS I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!

I have been playing Precision Drum Company drums since early 1995. The first kit Gary and George built me was a 20/12/14 jazzer. I had it custom finished with 7 coats of hand rubbed clear lacquer… there has never been a sweeter sounding drum kit EVER... I also had an enormous double bass drum kit built in my hardcore metal days…. Most recently, they built me my newest baby, an 18/10/12/14 bop kit in Champagne sparkle to get back to my jazz roots…. The attention to detail and the careful, individualized treatment that they give you makes every inch of your drums into a truly custom kit… such care and love of the instrument truly warms my heart and this so far out shadows my experiences with any other company. All of this, is not even to mention the most accurate bearing edges and clearest, most beautiful sound I’ve ever heard from any drum at any price. They are simply the best.

Very few times a company comes along with the perfect combination of craftsmanship, sound and art. From the construction and appearance of the drums, to the world-class Precision Drum sound, is something that most of us only dream about in a drum set and in a company. It´s even rarer to find a company with a staff of unbelievable dedicated and talented drummers who above all are caring people and good friends. I can honestly say that Precision Drum Company covers all my expectations and broadly exceeds them. I’m honored and proud to be associated with Precision Drum Company.

Incredible company,  incredible drums, incredible service. I could not be happier with the set  that those fine folks at Precision Drum Co. made customized for me. They've got themselves a life-long customer.
Jordan Marcellus, 2005

I like Precision because of the bright and true sound of the drums, and the light weight materials available. They sound just right for Jazz.

I have played many drum kits, a lot of which I came to like over time. I have never fallen in love with a drum set until I went to Precision drums. As soon as I walked into their shop, I was amazed by all the vintage wraps they had, and the different drum kits. The people there were, and still are very friendly, and invited me to play the drums in the showroom. I'm very picky with my drum sound, so I look for certain characteristics in a drum kit. I tested out their beautiful kits and was amazed by the sound and the resonant tone. The drums are also incredibly easy to tune because of precision’s standard 45 degree bearing edges. I  gave them my specs and they worked really quickly and they didn't lower the quality of their work because I was young. I am also thankful to the people at Precision for giving me an endorsee deal at such a young age. The bands I play for love the way my drums sound and its all thanks to precision. - Aaron Steele

I like Precision Drums natural wood sound. I know from visiting the factory that they put a lot of care and close inspection into every drum they produce, unlike many mainstream drum companies who rely more on machines. They are also easy to carry because they’re light weight

Precision Drum Co. is another way of saying amazing. Everything from the raw shell to the  completed drum is perfection.  Everyone at Precision is very helpful and actually cares about your needs.  When I ordered a snare from  Precision, it was so easy, fast and I got exactly what I wanted before the estimated time of arrival.  This was amazing because previous drum companies I have dealt with were less than mediocre.  When I received my snare  and realized how great it was, I didn't hesitate to order a whole kit.  My kit is the most amazing sounding and looking kit I could ever ask for. Thanks for making such great drums.

Now I have 2 complete sets of Precision drums ... As a semi-professional drummer who does free-lance work, I play in a variety of venues, from outdoor festivals to small restaurant lounges. With these drums I can now mix and match to get whatever combination is best suited for the job. I can say without exaggeration that at almost every gig I've taken them, somebody, drummer or non-drummer, has made a comment on how good my kit looks and/or sounds. So once again, thank you very much for a fine product and excellent service.
David Barbour, April 2001

The time you spent with me in planning out my kit is much appreciated.
You can't get that from the big companies. Your attention to detail, 
knowledge and professionalism is absolutely wonderful and very helpful.

I’ve had some time now to settle into my new drums and so here I am, writing to share with you just how pleased and thankful I am for your service and your product. With your guidance I designed my 7-peice, dream drumset-of-a-lifetime. I honestly could not be happier with the sound and feel of my drums! And the fact that you agreed to let me do the finish myself helped make the drums just that much more special to me. So basically, thank you for helping me to fulfill my drumkit dreams!
In the interest of tone and resonance, Gary, you encouraged me to visit your shop and talk drums. It was more than clear to me that our 2 hour(!!) conversation in the showroom was only the beginning of the wonderful service and attention you would pay to me. You patiently poured over every detail of shells (like depth v. diameter and breather holes or not) and hardware with me and addressed all my concerns regarding finish choices and methods. Your forthcoming advice-from-experience was very helpful and saved me from some of my own costly trial and error. So thank you for that!
You were fair and easy to deal with about shipping shells back and forth, swapping a shell that I had concerns about, and exchanging mistakenly ordered hardware. This is definitely one of the many pleasures I enjoyed while dealing with your company.
The drums: Having never owned a true all-maple drumset, you can imagine how this has been my dream. Punch, warm tone, and sustain pretty much sums up what I was looking for in my new kit, and most drummers know that you don’t have to look much further than maple drums to achieve those sound qualities. Again, with your guidance, I chose 6 ply rack toms and snare drum, and 8 ply floor toms and bass drum. Needless to say, I just melt into these drums when I play them. They’re everything I’ve ever wanted.
Without sounding too weird… there is something special about playing an instrument that is so in tune with you that it’s like a part of you. This often happens when one crafts one’s own instrument. Ask any Native American flute maker or any African djembe maker how amazing it is to play an instrument that he has poured time and sweat into before it could even make any music. It just becomes an extension of your self. I’ve been fortunate to experience this not only with my new Precision drums, but also through skinning and playing my own djembes.
OK, granted… I didn’t MAKE my drums, nor did I drill any holes. But, I did lovingly and painstakingly sand the heck out of the raw shells (LOTS of sanding!!) and very nervously applied pre-stain, Minwax gel stain, and wipe on polyurethane with very pleasing results. Actually, if I do say so myself, I’m thrilled with the way they look!! Just icing on the cake though, as I’m really focused on how great my drums sound. And nevertheless, I had SOMEthing to do with the finishing of these drums, so they are truly a part of me now!
Well, I feel I’m rambling a bit. If I truly wanted to cover everything we did, and every aspect you helped me on, this would be a four-page letter and hey, I DON’T have a BLOG!! I had to get this to you though to express my sincere appreciation for all you’ve done for me and for being an absolute pleasure to work with. I look forward to building more instruments with you and your fine company.
Sincerely,
Greg DiMiceli
