There’s one product we make that we didn’t design- it’s the Kim Shelley Teardrop Be**er. .shelley.180 is a Dragonfly Artist and busy freelancer in the St. Louis area. She’s been selling these little guys for many years (her’s was the first teardrop shaped be**er out there) and asked us to take over production. We’ve recently made two small updates: 1) the teardrop be**er head is now made of carbon steel instead of stainless which we think sounds even sweeter. 2) The KS2 is now on a fiberglass handle instead of Garolite. Same lightweight flexible feel, just a different color. Check em out! **ers

Coupla super vintage Dragonfly bass drum sticks from one of our besties . Gonna do some repairs and rewrap these for her. Made with skate wheel cores bought at a flea market outside Coney Island ca. 2001. Check out the hand drawn logo. Very classy.

When I’m looking for a specific or unique bass drum sound, I can’t say enough good things about the line of Bass Drum Be**ers from and . Like the canvas be**er used by of amazing to get the “perfect” country music bass drum sound while I was covering some dates. I use this be**er myself (as well as the awesome hard leather be**er), but under the foot of a master like Gabriel this be**er was used to sheer perfection.
