Liberty Drums Maple Shell Pack
Rhythm magazine is MusicRadar's sister publication and the UK's best-selling drum magazine and every month it reviews the latest drum gear.
Here we've brought together all of the cymbals, drum kits, electronic drums, percussion and other drum-related gear reviewed throughout June 2013.
All the equipment on show here was originally reviewed in Rhythm magazine issue 217, or by MusicRadar's own reviews team.
MusicRadar’s verdict:
"Even in this continuing recession, it seems there is little to dampen our thriving custom UK drum industry. The level of build quality is excellent with some beautiful machining/finishing on those particularly thin shells."
