“Company was responsive upon queries. Item is excellent. However delivery time was estimated at 4 weeks. Took 12 weeks to arrive, long after the event/trip the item was required for.”

“We went in to buy my son his first drum kit, the man was extremely helpful he gave lots of advice and even helped us out to the car with the kit. We will certainly be back to buy any required accessories.”

“The guys were great. Really helpful and knowledgable. I needed some cymbal stands to replace a rack mount system and they talked me through what was available at various price points and we worked out what was needed for my situation. I then needed for it to be paid for by someone else before collection, and their system enable this to happen no probs. Thanks team Rattle and Drum!”

“Rattle and Drum had a May bank holiday offer on which swayed me into buying a Tama Iron Cobra Lever Glide Hi-Hat Stand as if you spent over £300 you got £30 off. The stand was ordered in from a supplier to be delivered to me, I was concerned it had not arrived and my holiday was imminent. I emailed the shop and Martin advised me it was still to be delivered to them but as I was going to be away arranged for it to stay at the shop so I could collect after my holiday. Yes it did take a while to get to the shop but that is something completely out of their control and certainly does not put me off using them for all my drumming needs. Best shop in Derby!”
