HB Drums

HB Retrophonic cocktail kits boast a 1967 sound and price. The company offers an attractive Natural Birch Lacquer—finish kit (also available in Sea Foam Lacquer), though its wrapped finish kits are even less expensive than these remarkably inexpensive drums. The cocktail kits feature 6.5mm, 6-ply birch shells with retro-style lugs and badges. 16" x 24" vertical bass drum includes a reverse-action chain-drive pedal and internally muffled Mylar heads. The 8" x 5" snare comes with a real throw-off so it can double as a small tom. There’s another dedicated 10" x 5" tom as well. This kit also includes 12" hi-hats, a 10" splash, a small cowbell, sticks, and even a set of cases! List price is from $349—$479, depening on if you want PVC wrap or lacquer finish. Customizable shell depth, lug option, and bearing edge angles. Made in the USA.
