DISCOVERING THE BEST NATURE HAS TO OFFER
DIRECT FROM THE SOURCE
After harvest, logs are gathered onto a truck
for transport to the mill.
A CUT ABOVE
Debarked logs are moved into position
for precision rotary cutting into veneer
sheets 1/36” thick.
THE DRUM MAKER’S
CHOICE
Sections of log, or “cookies”, are
cut to be sent to DW for approval.
HIGH STANDARDS
Veneer is hand selected at the mill
to meet the highest quality control
standards.
“Wood hunts are adventures. They
take us on long journeys where the
airplanes get smaller and smaller.
When we eventually get there, we
find ourselves in mud-soaked pick-
up trucks on roads that have no
names. The roads become paths
into the forest— and that’s where
the deals are made.”
—John Good, Executive Vice President and Drum
Designer, Drum Workshop, Inc.
HARVESTED IN THE
NORTHERN U.S.
A wood hunt takes John Good
and professional log hunters
deep into the maple forests of
Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.

“When we started Drum
Workshop, we shared a
dream to make exquisite
instruments by hand.
Now, I feel so fortunate
to be surrounded by
extraordinary men and
women that make that
dream a reality every day.”
—John Good, Executive Vice President and Drum
Designer, Drum Workshop, Inc.
OUR PASSION FOR DRUM MAKING STARTS with our love for what
nature has created. Finding the finest quality materials is not only our mission, it’s
a necessity for crafting the best looking, best sounding drums we can make.
EVERY COLLECTOR’S SERIES ® DRUM SET starts with top quality North
American maple or birch that is painstakingly hand selected from specially cut
single-log line production runs, producing sequential facial veneers. In addition,
each log is chosen for the greatest amount of sapwood in order to maximize
yield. Even the heartwood is used to make core shell plies. In the end, almost
every inch of the log is used.
AN EYE FOR EXCELLENCE
John Good inspects a piece of Curly Maple
log for potential purchase.
CULTIVATING
RELATIONSHIPS
John Good gains insight from long time
colleague and log hunter Don Sadler.
SOMETIMES THE HUNT FOR EXCEPTIONAL EXOTIC WOOD
finishes takes us beyond North America to countries such as Germany, France
and Italy where highly figured logs from Scandinavia, Africa, Japan and other
exotic locales are acquired from families that have been heavily involved with the
most sought-after rare woods for generations.
PERUSING TOP QUALITY LUMBER has taken us on a memorable journey
where we’ve forged lasting relationships and gained insightful knowledge into
the intricacies of wood and how we can best utilize them to create a world class
musical instrument.
