Making Drums

Making Drums

by Dennis Waring (Author)

Synopsis

It's the best drum lesson anyone could take. Primitive drums, Irish drums, Latin drums, drums from the Middle East and India: whether they're framed, staved, carved, or clay, the basics for making every one of them is here, provided by a master of the style. Photos colourfully display the culturally diverse drums and construction techniques in an easy-to-follow fashion, from choosing and attaching a drumhead to dealing with tacks, staples, and pegs; from learning lacing logistics and knot-tying to working with hoops and adjustable hardware.
