Welcome to Artisan Drumworks

…makers of Handcrafted, Heirloom Quality, Custom Drums. We are a boutique, custom drum company located in Memphis, TN offering hand-crafted, custom stave, segment, and solid snare drums and drum sets with superior sound and quality. Our custom stave, segment, and one-ply snare drums and drum sets are carefully engineered to produce unparalleled, pure tone, sensitivity, and a unique voice within each species of wood. Our flagship is our stave drum shell design which ultimately captures and differentiates the full, distinct tonal properties from one wood species to another. Stave design uses solid wood and a minimal amount of glue in the manufacturing process. Our new Vintage Classic solid snare drums and drum sets offer a unique voice that is all their own, each handcrafted to our specifications. And our segment snare drums offer character and musicality in their own voice.

Our drums are the choice of many professional players and sound engineers for recording and live performance all over the world.

Artisan Drumworks is the authority in stave design and construction, specializing in stave snare drums and stave drumsets, including symphonic snare drums and custom wood hoops for snare drums, toms, and bass drums. In addition to our original stave designed snare drums and drum sets, we also offer solid (one-ply) snare drums and drum sets in our line up. Solid snare drums have been made famous and are favored among many top professionals for their premium tonal qualities. The most recent addition to our pallette of instruments is our segmented shell snare drums made from a series of solid blocks of wood. We are also proud to use our new Artisan Drumworks engineered, U.S.A. made lugs that are machined out of solid brass. Other new developments are several hardware finishes, including satin nickel and black nickel and the most recent introduction of our tom suspension system : The Artisan Isolation Mount (A.I.M.) (patent pending).

We handcraft our custom stave, segment, and solid snare drums, drum sets, and custom wood hoops in several domestic and exotic wood species with passion and precision, one at a time, and proudly in the U.S.A.  All of our drums ship in legendary Humes & Berg Enduro Pro hard cases and are backed by our exclusive Lifetime Warranty!
