 I received my shell back yesterday and it is amazing!! I'm speechless man! many thanks to you and your entire staff! Your work has gone far beyond my high expectations here. I can't wait to work with you again!
Kyle Dossick

Fantastic job on the shell. Your operation really does an awesome job. Way better than the factory wrap jobs that Ludwig does!!! The drum is all put back together and it looks brand new again. And now it matches my kit.

Precision did a fantastic job on my 1963 Ludwig drums. They brought an older set in not-so-great condition back to life, plus I got the 60s Oyster Black color I had wanted since I first saw the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show! They were able to re-use my original badges and eyelets to give the set a detailed "original" look. And all of the work was delivered on time. Thanks, Precision!

To All the Staff:
Thank you for the great work done on re-wrapping and recovering my 1996 Fibes Drums. Unfortunately the ”new” Fibes Drum Company does not offer Chrome wrapping for their drums which forced me to settle on a White Marine Pearl covering which I never liked. You had the right wrap, but beyond that, the quality of the workmanship was first rate, better than the manufacturer! The delivery was superb. It was easy and convenient to work with the staff through emailing and the phone, impeccable service.
For those who desire custom work for their drums this is the place to go! Count on me sending more work to you in the future!

I wanted to thank you again for the absolutely amazing job you did on
my drum kit. It really means so much to me that this kit has been
given a whole new life. This kit was my late grandfather's and I never
had the opportunity to have the work done on it that wanted until now.
I'm amazed all the detail and care you took for my drums. Again, that
means so much to me. This was worth every single penny and I am so
happy to support you and your company.
You were an absolute pleasure to work with and made this experiece so
incredibly easy and enjoyable which I really appreciate.

Thank you for the tremendous job you did in recovering the Rogers 16" Floor Tom. I appreciate your attention to detail, especially with the bearing edges and hardware remounting. The drum looks and plays great!
Jeffrey Cary, 2001

 The re-beveled bearing edges, wrap fit, wrap material, and re-drilled holes were just fabulous. But the thing that REALLY blew me away was someone from your company called me to confirm whether I played left hand or right hand as it makes a big difference when mounting the badges on to the two shell mounted toms. I am left handed and it made a HUGE difference to me and for that I will be forever grateful. Attached is me playing the kit at a wedding. No, I'm not mad at the drums, I just frown a lot when I play.

I recently forwarded a vintage Rogers Holiday Bass Drum to your facility for the purpose of having the drum wrapped in your Red Onyx finish.
As a prior satisfied customer, I had no doubt that the fine individuals working out of The Precision Drum Company would do another professional job. Needless to say, I was correct.
I just want to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your fine workmanship and courteous service -- from the ladies working in the office to the craftsmen doing the actual installation of the wrap. The Precision Drum Company is one "class" operation.
The finish I purchased matches the rest of my kit PERFECTLY and I can't tell you how many compliments I've already received from those who've seen the complete kit.
THANKS AGAIN for your EXCELLENT service!
Sincerely,
Gary M. Dycio

Bearing edges are the contours (angle or round) cut at the edges of the drum shell. The bearing edge is where the drum head "bears", or makes contact with the drum shell. The style and quality of the bearing edge has a great effect on the sound of the drum.
We can accommodate just about any bearing edge request.
Our double 45 degree bearing edge
We have re-cut bearing edges on just about every major brand of drums, with great results! Most drum companies don’t take the necessary time to cut bearing edges well. Not only is the bearing edge design/contour important, but also the quality with which the edges are cut and polished.
Precision Drum has been recognized for many years as being an industry leader in providing top quality bearing edges. We have re-cut bearing edges on hundreds of drums, of just about every major brand, and many small custom brands as well. The results have been outstanding!

I just had to write and tell you how happy I am with the job you did on my drums... you guys do great bearing edges! Thank you for being such a great company to work with.

I don't think many drummers realize just how important a true, crisp, edge is to the quality of a drums sound. I didn't realize it until I took the chance and spent the truly minimal amount to have Precision Drum re-cut the edges on my Yamaha Recording Custom tom shells. I was ready to sell these drums and get a new kit. But the craftsmen at Precision cut new life into my beloved RC's and I have three more shells shipping out today to get the treatment.
Thanks again.

Drums received Gary.
They sound phenomenal.
Thanks for the nice work, great service and superior packing.
Best money I've ever spent on any musical equipment, ever!

Thanks guys.
The bass drum immediately was amazing! Just the greatest tone I’ve ever heard....SINGS
The 8x14 snare lost all the annoying high tones and out of control ring AND its super sensitive at soft dynamics now.
The tone is fuller, more lows, less out of control highs, fatter.
I dont have to turn as much on the tuning rods to change the pitch...its more sensitive to tuning
They still have a nice ring but its a more SINGING tone versus SHOUTING before.....
Thanks so much.

Hello, Gary.
I thought I should send a note about my experience with Precision Drum Company. I purchased an early 70s Ludwig kit, 9x13, 16x16, & 14x22, 3 ply with reinforcement rings. I was having trouble with tuning because the edges were not level on any of the drums, and tuning was impossible. I like a very resonant sound, low with a lot of boom. That 70s ' Thing! I wrote to Precision Drum Company asking about cutting the bearing edges. I received a courteous reply. I was told that the prices on the web site were up to date, and that the work could be done quickly. I live under 100 miles from the Precision Drum Company so I dropped off the drums myself. I met a very busy, yet friendly, staff. They took the time to show me what needed to be done, why and how.
The work was done on schedule. I thanked them and took the drums home. I found the work to be very well done, and the drums now tune-up easily. The 9x13 tuned easily, and it sounds great. The 16x16 really resonates so much more than anything that I've ever had before, this side of a Vista-Lite . And the 14x22 sounds so very big, much bigger than just a 22".
I could not be more thrilled with the work done on these drums. I am impressed with the staff and the quality of the service that I received at Precision Drum Company. Whenever I need work done on my drums I will return to the professionals at Precision Drum Company.

I have had my Yamaha Recording Custom kit since 1993. My parents bought it for me when I graduated college. I have received a multitude of compliments regarding its appearance, and more importantly, its sound. However, I was never satisfied with the overall tone of the 10" by 10" tom. It produced a note that did note resonate like the other toms on the kit. I did not want to invest in a new kit so I figured I would call your company. I received the drum and immediately put the hardware, lugs, and drum heads back on. As I tightened the heads a little at a time I started to hear the drum's tone open up. It was AMAZING. It has its own note and resonance within its own tuning range. It can stand alone or can be a musical part of my other toms in their respective tuning ranges. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MY NEW SOUND, AND FOR YOUR APPRECIATED CUSTOMER SERVICE!

Thank you so so much for the work Precision did on my Gretsch catalina tom. OMG, I am so amazed how precise the cut and the apex bearing edge is. When I read on the Precision web site about how you can do much better cuts than when the drums come from the factory I said to myself, wow that’s a BOLD statement. But now I know its 100% true. I am so happy and please thank the tech who made the cuts on the tom. I am truly amazed.
Curtis Vosburg
Thank you for shipping lightning fast wow.

I just wanted to let you know the drum shells came back yesterday after your re-cutting work. First off, thank you for the super quick turn around time, getting them back so soon was a nice surprise! Second, and most important though, the quality of the work is outstanding!
The stock edges on my toms left a lot to be desired, and I never could get the sound of my drums to match the sound in my head. Tuning was always problematic and it took a lot of effort to get a decent sound. I went through four different sets of heads chasing the sound I was looking for and never quite got it.
Now, after getting the shells back I put a fresh set of heads on and tuned them up. No issues, no problems, and I found exactly the sound I was wanting very quickly. The clarity of sound and resonance is so much better than before, and the previous problem of each drum never being perfectly in tune with itself was finally gone. I feel like my drum set is finally able to show off its abilities, not it's limitations.
Thanks again for the great work!

I would like to express my gratitude to precision drum company for the bearing edge repair done to my 13x9 rogers tom. I was very pleased with the friendly service I received when I called to arrange shipment. I felt reassured that the work would be done to my satisfaction. I sent the drum from my home in central Pennsylvania on a Wednesday and it was delivered to my door on Friday. The bearing edges were beautifully done, polished & true. I should add that this drum suffered from a very bad bearing edge job done previously by another store and I was not sure it could be corrected. I have owned my rogers set since about 1973 and it was a great feeling to have my drum so professionally restored. With precision drum company you get great quality and the best service you've had in years
Sincerely, Terry Kline

I put my vintage Ludwig toms back together this weekend and was very happy with the results. The new bearing edges brought them back to life. Your expert craftsmanship allowed these shells to once again be "the Best They Can Be! In a playing run from high to low with a total of 10 toms they stood out with a renewed lively sound. They were not tunable before, and now can be tuned to their "true natural tone" to fit in with the rest based upon size. The new bearing edge made all the difference in the world. As you are aware, the edges are now probably better than they even were when originally built at the Ludwig factory. I am well pleased and preparing to send the rest of the collection of toms to you this week.

 You guys recut the bearing edges on my Ludwig Exotic Snare in this picture, and it sounds great. Before your mod the snare sounded choked, and was difficult to tune. It now has a great range of tunability and excellent response.

Thank you so much for cutting my Noble & Cooley drum shells and new bearing edges. Perfect job, they sound and look great. You are a joy to work with. Your communication and hospitality was great. You took the time to explain everything to me and make great suggestions. I can’t be happier with the work and I’m already thinking about the rest of the kit to bring it up to the same sound caliper. The double 45 bearing edge cuts worked better than I expected and the tuning range is now much wide from very low to high.
I’ve been playing drum for a long time and have had a lot of work done on my various kits and I have to say Precision is one of the best drum services available.
Getting it done while I waited was a bonus. Clearly you all have a passion for your work.
I highly recommend Precision drum services and will be recommending you to all my drummer friends. - Ron Ouimette

Thank you for cutting the bearing edges on my Sonors.
Big difference ! I can tune them now, and the pitch is free of sour tones.

You did an incredible job on the bearing edges on an old Tama snare that I had brought along. I can honestly say that this Drum sounds better than ever and tuned up with ease.
Thanks Again, Bob Briggs

Hey, I came in yesterday and had my bearing edges re cut. I can't tell you how happy I am now with this kit. These toms have SO much tone and they SING now. Thank you so much again. Joe Longobardi

 It was the debut gig of my Ludwig gold sparkle set with their newly recut edges. I had put on new heads, too. Everybody in the band loved them, even the most critical member, who said, "THAT'S the sound we've been looking for!" Anyway, the drums have new life and so, it seems, the drummer does, too. Mark

Snare Beds
|
|
|
|
|
A snare bed is a shallow, gradual relief cut in the bottom bearing edge of a snare drum shell, at the area where the snare wire straps cross the bearing edge to meet the throwoff and butt end. When tightened, the drum head will follow the snare bed contour, allowing the snare wires to make contact with the head in the center of the shell diameter.
Snare beds can be cut on most wood drum shells for $35 per drum
It is recommended to have snare beds re-cut if the bearing edges are being re-cut on a snare drum.
The picture below shows a snare bed on the bottom edge of the drum.
When shipping your drums, include a note showing your name, address, phone number, and email address so we can contact you. Pack drum carefully using crumpled newspapers to cushion drums. Nesting drums, one inside the other (where possible) using newspapers or cardboard between shells, is recommended to keep the shipping cartons as small as possible.

 I just received my 9x12 tom back...now 6x12. Another excellent job by Precision Drum Co. It sounds GREAT!!! Turn-around was 4 days...that is the drum was delivered to them on Monday and I received back Thursday. I'm astounded how much cleaner and accurate the re-cut bearing edges are compared to the factory cut edges.

I just received my two Yamaha Maple Custom Toms back today and I am truly blown away. The craftsmanship is absolutely flawless to say the least. Andrea was right when she told me over the phone that once my drums were cut, they would look brand new like the came from the original factory. And she said you would never know that the drums were cut. Andrea, you were right.
To the team at Precision Drum Company, thank you so very much. You did an amazing job. The turn around time was unbelievable, I couldn't believe that I already have the drums back in my studio less than a week later. I will definitely recommend you to anyone who is looking for drum repair or looking for a custom kit. I looked through your catalog and am blown away at the custom craftsmanship you put into your drums. If I ever look into buying another kit in the future, you will be receiving a visit from me. Take care and have a good and safe rest of your summer.

I just wanted to say thanks for an outstanding job on the Ayotte cut-downs that you guys did for me. It made a huge difference, not only on positioning capabilities, but the actual sound in general...they still sound like they did before, just now with a lot more sustain/punch.

I received the drum on Friday and it looks great!
The cut is very clean and the edge is better than the factory edge.
Thanks a lot for the professional work and the excellent customer service.

  The 12" tom that I had you cut and re-edge came out perfectly. Cutting the shell depth did exactly what I hoped it would. Out of all of the toms I have on hand for various setup arrangements, 8" through 16" all even diameters, the 12" seemed to have one set of ugly overtones in the mid-range frequency that killed the drum's tone. I tried different heads, tunings, etc. with no change. Tuning the 12" was also a nightmare, I think mainly because of the overtone issue.
Cutting the shell depth from the original 8" to the 6 3/8" you recommended seems to have completely eliminated those overtones and also makes the tom super-easy to tune (and it stays in tune). It sounds AWESOME!!! Turn around time was also excellent.
Thanks again for your services.

Precision cut the bass drum and installed latches to convert it into a split/latch nesting drum for easy transportation and storage of drums.

One example of a
Super restoration!
The owner of this bass drum had a big problem. The bass drum was so water damaged, it could not be played. One of the reinforcing rings had rotted, and the bearing edge was - well, see the pictures. However, it’s vintage wrap finish matched the rest of the kit. If the bass drum were replaced, a new wrap finish would not match the other drums.
The craftsman at Precision Drum custom fit a notched shell segment on which a new bearing edge could be cut. The segment was glued in place, then further reinforced with a conventional reinforcing ring. When a drum head is installed, the repair cannot be seen.

 Precision helped upgrade this kit by changing all chrome hardware for black, and by building a woofer for the bass drum.

I just wanted to say thanks for doing whatever it is you're doing,
because you're doing it right....
I bought shells, lugs, and misc. other hardware from you....12 year
ago! I built the drums myself - very carefully. They sounded
phenomenal; I couldn't believe I'd made these, and when other people
asked what kind of drums they were (because they sounded so awesome),
I told them, "I made them myself." Queue the clip of people's jaws
hitting the floor....
Now that I've picked up the sticks again, I can't believe that they
still sound amazing - it's unreal! And I'm so, so excited that when
I'm ready, I'll be able to pick up some new stuff to add on to my
already fantastic sounding set, because you guys are still around.
You guys rock!

I just wanted to drop an email to tell you guys how much I love these drums. I finally got it all put together, 18x26 bass, 9x13 and 14x16 toms, and I have to say its probably the best sounding drum set I've heard in person. These drums just sound massive.
Thanks for being great; awesome customer service. You just can't get that with a big company.
Totally stoked,
Tak

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the terrific service I received when placing my last order. Your knowledgeable staff helped to start my project off on the right foot. I was extremely pleased both with the quality of the shells and hardware as well as the speed in which it arrived at my door. The kit came out awesome and I've received nothing but compliments (even from my wife). I've recommended you to those who've asked and I look forward to doing more business with Precision Drum in the future. Thanks for everything.

 I just wanted to thank you all for you help and advise with my purchase of my shells and hardware for my kit. As you can see , they turned out great.
I covered the shells with mappa burl wood on wood veneer then custom mixed my stain and then sprayed 14 coats of lacquer. They sound great! Patrick Haggerty

 I ordered a 3 piece unfinished maple set from you back in May. I never had a chance to follow up with you to tell you how thoroughly HAPPY I am with drums. They sound amazing in both live and recorded settings. I had a fun/easy time staining and finishing the drums, thanks to your advice. I really can't thank you enough for the time and attention you spent with me during the ordering process.
Thanks again. Tom Begandy

     Wanted to share a couple of pics with you from a shell I got from you a while back. It is a floor tom with a monsterous sound and doubles as a bass drum for smaller venues.
Thanks

 Attached are pictures of a snare for which Precision Drum supplied the brass lugs, tension rods, air vents and most notably the wood hoops which are extraordinary! The shell is a Vaughncraft single ply hybrid: curly red oak and rosewood.
Thank you George for your tips working with those brass lugs.
Sincerely,
Anthony Faulkner

On Friday of last week I made a trip to your shop to purchase components to build a snare. I would like to thank George for all of his help to get me started on this project. He went over and above what I had expected for service. Thanks Again, Bob Briggs

  I had a vision of a drum set that I was going to build, so I started looking into it and I found you guys. I got my shells and covers and started from there. Drum builder Mike R

I had your company wrap a 15"dia x 24"deep Keller for me about 10 years ago..I made a cocktail drum out of it and have really gotten a ton of use out of it. Just click on the video link to see the drum in use. Absolutely love this drum.. Niles

 I just wanted to tell you how happy I am with the service provided by you and your company. The time from payment to shipping was amazing and the cuts of the wrap were spot on. I ordered shells and hardware from another supplier on this kit, but due to the quality and speed of your service I'll be using Precision Drum for all my future drum building needs. Thanks again!
