Last week Drummer Connection was given a special invitation to come and tour the ddrum facility in Tampa, FL. Founded in 1983 as a private company ddrum is now a division of Armadillo Enterprises Inc. that manufacturers drums, percussion, and electronic drum triggers.
Founded in the Spring of 1995 Armadillo is a distributor of musical instruments and owns ddrum, Luna Guitars and Dean Guitars, which happens to have a guitar design shop located in the same building. The first Dean guitars were released in the mid-1970s and featured designs including "pointy" guitar bodies and large V-shaped headstock. These designs quickly gained popularity because of their radical look. We were greeted by one of these monsters in the main lobby, along with an AMAZING custom chopper.
After the initial shoock and awe of the lobby it was time to collect ourselves to begin the tour. Check out the video below to see what it's like to get up close and personal with ddrum!
So there you have it first hand, an inside look at one of the hottest manufacturers in the drumming industry today. With their ever growing roster of artists backing them, ddrum will continue to raise the bar for their quality and customer care to ensure that EVERYTHING that ships from this warehouse is top notch.
Be sure to visit our Featured Video Page to see more videos of the ddrum experience and visit http://www.ddrum.com for more products, news, and upcoming events. Drummer connection would like to once again thank Terry Platt and the ddrum, Dean Guitars staff and John Spinelli of Seminole Music & Sound http://www.seminolemusic.com/
