Protective and Portable

Included velvet bags protect each drum during transport and also allow you to dampen the drums to reduce volume. The bags, combined with the small size of the drums, make the Breakbeats an ideal portable setup for any percussionist on the move. Additionally, the durable wrap finishes in olive, vintage cream and tobacco provide an attractive yet protective covering.

Quick and Responsive

The 45-degree bearing edge and triple-flanged hoops enable a fast, sensitive response from the poplar shells. Despite their small size, these drums are capable of producing a punchy, articulate sound suitable for any musical style. The included lift places the drums at an ideal height for playing.

Ideal for Apartments and Tight Spaces
