5. Minuendo lossless earplug

 

It goes without saying that drums are a loud instrument, and protecting your hearing is a must. Not using hearing protection while drumming can result in tinnitus and even permanent hearing loss, so it is critical that you invest in some proper drumming headphones.

 

We recently partnered with our friends at Minuendo to offer the world's first variable noise-isolating earplugs in our store. These Minuendo lossless earplugs allow you to manually adjust the level of noise reduction, from -7dB all the way to -25dB. They also come with eleven sets of ear tips to ensure that you can achieve a perfect fit regardless of your ear shape. These earplugs are perfect for drummers, especially during long practice sessions.

Speed up your playing with this awesome double-kick pedal from Tama. The Tama Iron Cobra 200 Double Bass Drum Pedal is renowned for its incredible speed and power. The 200 series aims to deliver the same quality at a more affordable price. This pedal includes the same Cobra Coil mechanism available on the more expensive 900-series, ensuring that the footboard immediately snaps back to its original position after each stroke for maximum speed. The Power Glide cam also allows for higher volume and speed from the beater. Gifts for drummers like the Iron Cobra pedals are favored by some of the world's most legendary drummers, including Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater), Stewart Copeland (The Police), and Lars Ulrich (Metallica), so you know they're a great choice.

If you're still rocking your kit's stock heads, you definitely need an upgrade. Give your drums a makeover this Christmas with Remo Colortone Drumheads. These uniquely aesthetic drumheads are well-known for their great sound and durability, and the Colortone series is no exception.

 

These incredibly attractive drumheads don't only look good - they sound amazing too. With Remo's Skyndeep technology built-in, each Colortone head features the same great projection and tone as Remo's Clear range. They are available in a variety of colours and are perfect for live performances where visuals are just as important as sound, making them an ideal choice for gifts for drummers.

Gibraltar 9608MB Drum Throne

 

No. 8 on our list of gifts for drummers is this fantastic Gibraltar 9608MB Drum Throne. The seat is made of Cordura, and the double-braced leg base ensures that the throne will withstand even the largest amounts of weight and pressure. The included backrest will do wonders for your posture and make sure you’re as comfortable as possible at all times during your playing.

 

9. Toontrack Superior Drummer 3

Toontrack Superior Drummer 3

 

If you own an electronic drum kit, chances are you don’t feel completely satisfied with its included sounds. Gifts for drummers who use electric drums often sound tinny and unrealistic, leading to subpar quality for recordings or live performances. Toontrack Superior Drummer 3 fixes that by giving you a huge library of raw drum sounds to choose from, as well as a wide variety of preset kits.

 

This library was created by recording real acoustic drums, and it sounds fantastic. While you can play these samples directly in your DAW or through a MIDI keyboard, you can also connect your electronic kit to your computer and have it trigger the sounds each time you hit the drums. Superior Drummer is a game-changer for drum production, and its dynamics and sound quality are almost as good as the real thing, making it an excellent choice for gifts for drummers.

 

10. Evans SoundOff Drum Mutes - Complete Set

Evans SoundOff Drum Mutes - Complete Set

 

If you live in an apartment or with roommates, but prefer to maintain the feel of an acoustic drum kit instead of limiting yourself to electronic drums. The Evans SoundOff Drum Mutes - Complete Set is a great option for gifts for drummers. Put these on your drums and cymbals to make them significantly quieter, enabling you to practice at home without any complaints. Your neighbors will thank you!
