Great shop with very knowledgeable friendly staff I would go more often but I usually go in for sticks and end up leaving with loads of stuff like a kid in a sweet shop, bought a great new rug recently and only went in for a reso head 🤣

I had great service from Rattle & Drum. They responded quickly to my queries via live chat, phone and email and kept me in the loop regarding delivery. Very happy with my gong and can definitely recommend buying from Rattle & Drum!

Awesome company. I ordered 2 pairs of ticks & they arrived really quickly. Would definitely buy from them again as the price was competitive, too!

I first saw the mouth watering Pearl MCX, 7 shell kit on the R&D website, researched it.....made 2010, snare included, and after a call to Martin, who assured me that it was in "as new" condition, decided to satisfy my drummers dream of a high-end (for me) maple kit. I've always been a devotee of Pearl, and wow, this kit is the muts!! Not only is it perfect, two of the drums (8"&16"toms)have never been played, not a mark on the batters, tags still attached!! The PR cases were similarly perfect, they still have the new smell and are still shiny. I have had nothing but honesty and excellent service from R&D and will go to them first for my percussion requirements from now on. Oh, and did I mention, they were delivered with TLC by Kevin to my house in Somerset.

I Recently ordered a Ludwig snare online from Rattle and Drum. It was timed to arrive for an important festival we were playing in Germany. Due to a postal strike, the delivery was not going to happen in time. Martin at the store, realising my dilemma, sent the drum home with one of the store’s team, which enabled me to drive up to Derby after hours, then head straight to the airport, with my new Black Magic in tow. The gig went off brilliantly, and I can’t thank the team at rattle and hum enough for their superb communications and personal attention. Big shout out to Woody, Martin and Kevin 🤟🏻 Andy G ( PAGAN ALTAR )

I contacted Rattle and Drum by email to see they could help me get a set of Rtom Blackholes - they responded very quickly and said the best way was to order via the website which I did and was very easy to do. Within a matter of days I was using these on my drum kit . I’m very pleased with these items and the service given as always was exceptional.
