Lessons: Beginning to Advanced
Learn basic or advanced techniques. Supposedly rudiments are the necessary
basis for playing the drums. But for students who are not so advanced,
or just beginning, it is an absolute mystery why they have to struggle
with what they feel to be boring technical exercises when all they really
want to do is just play. But the rudiments are not boring at all if
you can apply the new figure you've learned in its simple form directly
to the drum set. With practice, our excellent instructors can show you
the way. Students learn technique, reading and a variety of styles.
All Drum World teachers are professional drummers.
Scheduling lessons:
Call us at 650-572-9900 to schedule your lessons. You may request
a day, time and instructor. Schedules vary per instructor. Teachers
are paid directly by the student. Lesson rates vary per teacher. Each
studio is equipped with two drum sets (for teacher and student). Lessons
are also available for xylophone, marimba, timpani, bongos, djembe,
and conga. Periodically, Drum World holds master classes and clinics
by various pro drummers. Have Fun, Play Drums!

Pacific's (PDP) M5 is a breakthrough kit. Not because
of a new technology or state-of-the-art innovation, but because
it’s an all maple kit for an unheard-of price tag. So, why
is maple the preferred material for drum making? Because of its
inherent sonic qualities. Maple sounds warm, yet punchy, it projects
and has pleasing tonal qualities that make it very musical. Drum
manufacturers have been singing maple’s praises for decades,
but it was only available to a select few. Now, every drummer
can enjoy the sweet sound of maple and look good doing it. M5
five-piece kits include F.A.S.T™-sized 8x10" and 9x12"
rack toms, 12x14" floor tom with legs, 18x22" kick drum
and matching 5x14" snare drum. 7x8" and 14x16"
add-on toms are also offered in each finish. Great drum kit for
clubs, studio, and those on a budget. Order yours today through
Drum World.
The sound of Birch returns with the new Gretsch
Catalina Birch Series. These drums feature the distinctive sound
of Birch shells: Explosive attack with a deep low-end fundamental.
Catalina Birch shells are finished with 30-degree bearing edges
and natural interiors to produce a Gretsch sound that is filled
with tonal punch and depth. This standard configuration includes
traditional sized 8”x12” and 9”x13” toms,
which blend quick response with deep, full tones. The 16”x16”
floor tom for provides enhanced low-end depth. Classic Gretsch
features include mini Gretsch lugs, 9020 tom and FT leg brackets,
4945 tom mount plate, ball-socket double tom mount, matching bass
drum wood hoops. Drums are finished in high-quality, durable wraps
or in high gloss UV burst lacquer. That 'Great Gretsch Sound'.
