" What a WONDERFUL find at my PO box today..... I really had no idea there would be such a big difference in the quality of your shells vs your competitor"
"The red oak was my personal favorite: beefy, warm bell tone, very dry, articulate attack, controlled snare response. The yellow heart seems the most extreme: some of the body and tone of the red oak, but sharper, and tons of snare response. The pecan was the most reserved of them, but also the most "snarey" in that its shell tone has quick decay, revealing more snare snap. The snare response is sensitive like the yellow heart, but the attack on top is dry and articulate like the red oak. It only barks a little when rimshot, almost like it's got an o-ring on it. I think this would be perfect for guys who don't play loudly but want a snare as lively as a controlled drum can be."
"Thanks again for the excellent service above and beyond the call of duty. I will be sure to tell my drummer friends about the positive experience I’ve had dealing with Global Drums!"
"I received yesterday the shell: they are simply gorgeous! I was really stunned by the beauty of the woods, and the great workmanship. Congratulations, I think that your shells are a work of art!"
"I very deeply appreciate the level of service and professionalism you have shown me. I plan on making many many more drums...and would only consider using you guys. Thanks very much,"
"The shells I bought from you, well I can't say enough goods things, I'm really happy with them and have had so many comments from the studio. The maple one sounds awesome and the Zebra has a real dry sound to it. Both are really sensitive drums!!"
"I have played this drum a lot, and after experiment with tunning ranges low to high I have
started using it as my main snare. I love its fat focused, articulate sound, low or high tuned. I like the keller shells also it's hard for me to pick which one I like the most, but the sensitivty of this shell beats the ply shell, and the rim shot is deafening!''
"I think the real difference in sound between the segmented shell and the ply. shell is the clarity of sound, plus it is very clean and articulate,"
" I want to thank you for your input on the project from start to finish,as far as your product is concern its top notch, the service once again top notch, i rave about your product on Drummaker .com a while back I believe you have covered it all Product, Price, Customer service, Please fee free to use my picture on your web site.

"Great hearing from you! Congratulations are in order! GDC's future looks brighter than ever, "be sure to wear your shades!" Please count me as a lifetime Global fan and patron"
"My snare is starting to get broken in, and you wouldn't believe how great it sounds. Man.....I love it"
"...the engineer, who has a great ear for drums, fell in love with it. After the first session, he humbly asked me if he could sample it. And he has something like 250 snare samples, all processed and everything, and he liked the untreated sound of this drum better than all of those other samples. Now he uses it on almost all of his projects, and that says a lot, my man."
"Hi just wanted to pass on to you my praise of the 6x14 purple heart that I bought from you sometime back. I finally finished it, and it is one powerful snare drum."
"Jeez, this 13" black walnut snare drum is HUGE! I put it together a few months ago to try it out, but I didn't really go thru the whole tuning process, so I didn't really realize what I had here."
"We received the hoops today, all I can say is thank you very much we are extremely impressed with your efficiency in this matter and will certainly be dealing with you in the future"
"finally received the first drum, a 6.5x14 cocobolo. unbelievable drum. possibly the best wood drum i have EVER played. the fit and finish of the segment shell is superb."
"The drum looks amazing! I can't wait to get some heads on this thing! Job well done my friend!"
"The shell looks great! Thanks so much for your fine work and great communications."
"I'll be honest.... I love the drum like my child... well... I dont have a child... but I assume this drum is as close as it will get till I actually do."
"Hey Gang.just a quick note...................WOW!!! ...............what great shells! Not only are they very well done inside & out but the machine work is fabulous too!"
"Remember the 6" Cherry segmented shell...Everyone that sees it, goes nuts over it and sound engineers love it.It's a bad puppy!"
"Dig this snare drum....may have to finish it in a set to match...you guys make FABULOUS shell!! Thanks Again!!"
