ANTOUN & FAMILY DRUM CO.
We have been huge fans of A&F right from the start! When we first heard and saw these incredible luxury boutique drums - we were just blown away.
A&F President and founder Ramy Antoun is a long time professional drummer who has an incredible drumming CV - playing sessions for artists such as Seal, Paul Simon, James Taylor, Willie Nelson and many more. When Ramy originally started the company he was in the pursuit of a look and sound that he had mapped out in his head for his own personal requirements. What followed from the results of that mission quickly snowballed in to a company with a 100 year business plan.
A&F's quest is to blend old-world craftsmanship with new world sounds and we believe their incredible sounds and beautiful designs have already changed the way many drummers now approach playing.
We are very proud to be A&F Drum Co.'s UK home, we can't wait to introduce you all to these drums.
18 X 4 RAW BRASS GUN SHOT SNARE
The Gun Shot Snare - 18x4 Raw Brass Shell with wood hoops.... One Giant Snare!
A&F hand cut, roll, weld, and sand their exclusive raw Brass shells and make their own wood hoops, hand cut bearing edges and snare beds. They treat the Brass with the A&F exclusive patina formula to jump start the aging process. Then they add their patented raw brass center-mounted lugs, hardware, and finally Remo heads.
These snares weigh 12 pounds, this one comes with the optional floor tom legs and brackets. You can also use the Gun Shot as a floor tom or a bass drum as well by adding A&F Spurs!
