THE EAGLES DON FELDER...BEIER 1.5 STEEL--4 X 15.....

Don Felder is one of the most legendary figures in Music...Of All-Time. He recently picked up a 1.5 Steel--4 x 15, and it really was a huge honor here. 

Seth Rausch (Don Felder, Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban, Little Big Town) had used his for live dates with Don, and he really liked the drum. He also commented to me how much he liked Seth's 1.5 Steel--5.5 x 12.

I enclosed a letter with the drum telling him as a kid I rode my bike to the Five & Dime to buy Already Gone. It still is my favorite song from The Eagles. Sending him a drum was quite the twist of time for me.

Thank You Again Don, and Thank You Seth Rausch & Ray Rebert.....

Long time supporter, Nathaniel Dobas (Dobas Music Studio) recently appeared in the live production of Assassins at the Fuse Theater in West Haven, Connecticut. He had along one of his long time mains/auxiliary drums...The Beier 1.5 Steel--6.5 x 14.

I want to send out a huge Thank You to all of the players that picked up the remaining NOS shells from the original line. The response was incredible, and it was so great to hear from all of you.

Those will be the only two drums in production here. The details on the Special Edition will be released soon.
