DW 5000 gold (real!) plated bass drum pedal. Craviotto White Ash hand-crafted drumkit; worth nearly $20,000. A rare Zildjian cymbal collection. If you’re a hardcore drummer you’re probably already drooling at the percussive treasures on offer at Revolver Drums. However, for novices only just beginning to beat their own drum, owner Conrad Tracey can provide the benefits of his experience.
Revolver Drums has been banging away for over a decade, while Conrad took over the store in 2011. As a session drummer for a vast array of Australian and international artists the man sure knows his stuff. He and Revolver Drums’ sales manager Rod Gilbert have over 35 years of musical experience between them. And the local industry knows it too; the store’s clients include the likes of Calling All Cars, British india, The Bamboos, Bertie Blackman, Cat Empire, Big Scary, Kate Miller Heidke, Amy Meredith, Washington, Janet Jackson, Steely Dan and Stevie Nicks’ band just for starters.
As well as providing Melbourne with the drum kit of its dreams, Revolver will be hosting a series of masterclasses, forums, tutorials and showcases featuring notable musicians throughout the year. Time to get the band back together.
