Crafting heirloom-quality snares, sets, and accessories in rural Northwestern France, Ludcher Drum Company offers drummers instruments that are simply better. Builder Clément Ludcher starts with unique local tonewoods like apple, pear, walnut, boxwood, and more to create stave shells that may be finished with brass lugs, hoops, strainers, and other hardware all made in-house. From the most sensitive snare drums to the biggest bombastic drum kits, Ludcher builds it all. Ludcher also manufactures beautiful bass drum beater sets made with the same high-quality woods and brass as the drums themselves, giving drummers a unique way to accent the visual and sound aesthetic of their instruments.
The same way France’s wine makers depend on stave construction barrels to shape their wine’s intricate, complex flavor, drummers today depend on Ludcher’s stave drums to expand their percussive palate. Recent builds include the Coco Bongo kit – a set featuring thin, resonant cherry shells with integrated reinforcement rings – and The Beater Box, a handcrafted set of bass drum beaters with fine woods, brass, and a cork end to pleasantly dampen attack when needed.
Working day in and day out to create innovations that feel familiar and simultaneously create real change to the landscape of percussion products today, LudcherDrum Company are the perfect choice for musicians seeking to bridge old world craftsmanship and newfound sounds that you won’t find anywhere else.
