Acme Drum Rentals

Acme Drum Rentals Providing the Backbeat of Southern California since 1998! Drum Teching, Drum Rentals, and Session Dr I've tuned literally thousands of drums, and I love it!

Being in the drum business for nearly twenty years, I've put my hands on more drums than I could possibly count. I've fine tuned my ears to find the sweet spot of any drum, so my clients will sound their very best. I take pride in what I do, and that's why it's important to make any studio or live performance the very best it can be! Let me worry about the details so all you have to do is sit down

and play! Whether you play your drums or mine, whether your project is a one day session or a month long tour, I look forward to helping you make the most of your music making process. Let's have some fun, eh'? Call me anytime at 714-931-1972 or email [email protected]. Thanks,
Darren Carr

Heading out to drop off a kit for my good friend Anthony Arvizu, fearless leader of the Compound Studio in Long Beach! Come and join us if you're in the area!

Despite being the 36th most populous city in the United States — and one with a hell of a music scene — Long Beach has little in the way of professional-grade recording facilities.

So as a way to celebrate this "extra" day of the year, I thought It'd be fun to share your "extra" piece of gear. Come on, we all have something that for some reason we keep holding on to...for just the right song...to create just the right vibe. You know what I'm talking about!? For some reason, I just can't seem to get rid of these tri-bells. Maybe it's the Peart fan inside me I don't know but they have never seen the light of day and probably never will. There now, that wasn't so hard now was it? This should be fun!
