Drouyn drums cataogues

Posts: 878 Threads: 190

Really excited about being sent scans of some incredibly rare Drouyn items. I am in the process of a major update to my website but in the meantime, thought some of you might enjoy these. Spot the Dynasonic clone!

I'd die for a Drouyn snare. That 8x14 snare would be just perfect.

Thanks for posting this.

Paul,

I'll bet you are absolutely "stoked" to have those catalogue pages... I have never before seen those BD's with the chrome rims, they look very "Slingerland Jet" series.. are there many of those around?

and also, do you know the date range of the catalogues?

Great stuff..

Cheers

Need multi quote badly around here - I'll try and answer all.

Mate I reckon that is one of the rarest drum parts on the planet because I have never seen one. Sure would like too though

Hey John - these images came in one PDF. Not sure if there as anything missing from this catalogue but I have seen one of these 'budget' Drouyn kits. Even the tom mounts are different. But the other pages show the 'Professional' drums, which look like the usual Drouyn kits. The cannon bass drum! That's what I remember seeing all these drummers play in Brisbane in the 70's.

Date-wise, I am guessing this catalogue has to be very late 60's? The print style looks that way to me.

I am trying to get more information but I can tell you that these were found lying around the factory, only recently. They could have so easily been thrown away, it's a miracle. I am posting a few other older images, hope you don't mind folks.
