Ayotte Keplinger Snare Drum
From the Sultan of Brunei to the Grenadier Guards of Buckingham Palace to the up-and-comer saving a summer’s pay cheque to place his dream order (and a modest number of rock stars, jazz artists and “Drum Gods” in between), Ayotte owners span the globe stretching across all ethnicities and music genres. The commonality amongst all Ayotte owners is that they belong to an elite cadre of music enthusiasts that demand the very best of not only themselves but also of their equipment. This trait separates them from the rest of the pack… we help them get there.
It is often argued that the drum is the first musical instrument known to mankind as the idea of striking an object to generate noise is innate in every human being. The invention of the drum ushered the development of rhythm, art, culture and to an extent, our identity as the human race. The drummer craftsmen at Ayotte have been studying particular characteristics responsible for sound generation since 1982. They have refined the mechanics of drum construction and have invented a number of innovative features along the way.
Wood is organic and therefore is not a uniform matter. Each cut of wood has its own distinctive grains, natural bends, and structural tendencies that must be addressed independently. At Ayotte, every specimen of wood is carefully studied by the discriminating eyes of our Wood Shop craftsmen prior to being nominated for the production process. Once in the shop, detailed and individualistic attention is combined with patience and time-proven experience to accentuate the idiosyncratic features of each wooden specimen. We mass produce nothing, and it shows, as every Ayotte drum is consistently within 3/1000 of an inch from its predetermined specifications.
