Awesome experience today! I’m no “real” drummer like Robert or the guys at Drum Center, but I know Stevie Wonder’s snare in “Superstition” sounds really good and mine sounded like a banjo with a broken string. After months of ruining new heads by over tightening etc. and replacing snare wires trying to get that nice dry sound, I decided to visit the professionals and it paid off. Robert sold me a new set of batter and resonant heads, new snare wires, tuned up my snare and showed me how to dampen it just right! Now I’m back in the studio with the exact tone I’ve been chasing for months now wearing some super dark shades & wishing I’d gone down there way sooner.

Vince, Brandon, and Russ are amazing. Expert, life-long drummers with passion and expertise. This is the place for all things drum. Central Kentucky is truly lucky to have this wonderful resource for expert equipment and knowledge of our craft. Thanks guys.

What a fantastic little gem! The spot is small but packed with gear and its so inviting how could you NOT want to go. Prices were competitive (better than anything on Reverb). Staff was next level awesome. If I lived closer it would be the only shop I would visit for my little dudes drumming needs.

For what they are, this place is great. Not the largest shop but they find a way to cater to most forms of common percussion performance.

This place is home for me. Any need Ive had had been either met or wisely assisted. These dudes fuel the Lexington rhythm section.

Always enthusiastic to help anyone that walks through that door. I love popping in there when I can, even if it’s just to buy some sticks. These days you can get anything and everything for a couple bucks less at a chain like Guitar Center or on Amazon, but you won’t feel fulfilled in any way. I’m always happy to pay an extra buck or two to keep good people in business.

I started taking lessons here when I was 12. I discontinued lessons in high school and recently picked them back up after college. Everyone here is so sweet and helpful! The staff is very knowledgeable and you can tell they love what they do. It has truly been an amazing experience growing up here and I will continue to use the resources Ive been given! This is the #1 shop for drums in Lexington :)

Vincent is amazing! He helped us find the correct “fit” for our needs. He was very easy to talk with and knowledgeable on drums and more! Thank you for your help, we will be back when it’s time for new drum heads.

These guys are phenomenal! They take time to answer questions and go out of the way to make you feel comfortable in your purchase. V, Russ, John and the rest of the gang are wonderful! Shop Local!

Great shop, employees are super helpful, very kind and very knowledgeable. Went here to find my first kit, they were incredibly understanding and patient with my probably stupid questions, and helped me find my perfect starter kit (the kit is above starter level, but because of price, I was able to get a nicer kit to start). Id especially like to call out Vince. He has been ultra patient with my insane questions, and walking me through my purchase. Would recommend this place 1000% to the beginning drummer and the veteran alike. Thanks Vince!!!

Amazing, quality products for the best prices. Staff is friendly and has extensive knowledge on the instruments. Private lessons are also available here which is a huge plus. Teachers are all very experienced and can help drummers of all skill levels.

I’ve been a loyal customer to the Drum center for 22 years now and will always go there until the day I die. If you are a drummer, you NEED to go there!! Russ, Sandy and Vince will make you feel like family. They have always been good to me. Even when Kevin owned the store he made me feel like family.

No better service at any store in Lexington, let alone any music store. Expect expert advice and fair prices, and to leave on a first-name basis. Dont buy online—support local business such as this one.

John and Ben took the time to get me what I needed, educate me on a lot of info, AND tune up all of my drums for no charge. Great customer service and culture; a great thing for Lexington.

Called about a competitive cajon listing from their shop and I was taken by surprise by how friendly they were and how they went the extra mile to make sure I understood all the specs of their available products, and even ones that they didnt have in the store.
