maple drum shells that are proudly made in the USA. Unless otherwise stated;
all drum shells are of first quality and of a stainable grade. We have also
made a special purchase of cover grade shells and these will be listed as such
with special pricing. Check out our eBay store
and other instrument selling platforms for more deals.
NOTE: The drum shells pictured may or may not be the shell
that you receive. Shells are cut from larger tubes and there is no guarantee
that you will receive one of a particular grain etc. This is particularly true
for “cover grade” shells. Please read the description carefully so you are
informed of the item you are purchasing as there are no returns on drum shells.
This listing is for a 12” diameter, COVER GRADE, 6 ply Keller
maple shell. You can choose a depth of 4” to
12” inches in depth. The price per inch of depth is $4.65. Example: a 8”
depth x 12” diameter 6 ply cover grade shell will cost$ 37.20. a stain grade
shell of this size is $58.58.
Simply choose the depth that you want your shell and we will
cut it down for you at no charge. The minimum depth of any shell is 4”. If you
wish to have your shell cut to 5-1/2” for example, please choose 6” as your
depth and make a note at check out to cut it at 5.5”.
NOTE: THE DEPTH OF YOUR SHELL MAY VARY BY 1/8” DUE TO THE
WIDTH OF THE SAW BLADE.
This shell is considered "Covered Grade"
appropriate for wrapped or opaque painted drum applications.
This could mean several things:
list of 3 items
1. The shell may have an outer ply that has an off color
wood or grain pattern, mineral streaks, insect marks or a
manufacturing defect that is aesthetic
in nature.
2. Some of the above mentioned issues may be visible through
clear or light colored stains or dyes. Therefore, we recommend these shells be
wrapped or
painted solid/opaque colors. (Many companies
use Covered Grade shells regularly for high volume shells or sets that are
wrapped.)
3. The seam is within specification and filled but may not
be completely closed.

These shells are round and structurally sound. The above
listed (possible) defects are aesthetic only and will have no effect on the
sound or performance.
These American made 8 ply drum shells are hand-crafted from
custom-molded North American Maple veneers. They are made using
all-Maple ply’s. This is a new drum shell with no holes,
hardware, bearing edges or rings.
We can cut baring edges of a single 45 degrees on 6 ply
shells for $30 per drum.
We can also cut a shallow snare bed on shell diameters of
10”, 12”, 13”, or 14” for $20 per shell.
NO snare beds are cut on shells deeper
than 8 inches. We do not do any Final sanding.
Shipping Note: If you wish to purchase more than one
of our eBay shells we will be happy to combine shipping. Many shells of
different diameters can often be
nested inside one another and packed into the same box for
nearly the same price as the largest shell being ordered. To do this,
purchase the shells of
your choice and request a combined invoice. We will
calculate the shipping for you and send you a single invoice.
We will ship your order with insurance included. If your
package arrives with damaged products, please save all packaging, take photos
of the damaged areas and contact the shipping company to make a claim. We are
not responsible for items once they have left our facility. Sorry, there are no
refunds on drum shells as they are custom cut at time of order.
