PASIC 2023 Show Photos and Review

The PASIC show was amazing as usual this year! It’s always a great time to meet up with INDe family and industry friends. My general impression is that there were fewer vendors this year, but strong attendance. It seems like there were more small independent businesses this year, which is awesome!

Photos of our booth, then highlights from the rest of the show!

INDe Booth!

Nesting kit

This kit was the star of our booth this year! Ultralight, easy to pack, and sounds incredible!

Wood hooped Bop kit

This kit was a big draw- tuned up into the bop range, these maple shells/hoops really sing!

Kalamazoo Series WaFarer

The look of disbelief when people hear these is one of my favorite things to see! The expectation of the sound of small metal drums is very different than the reality- these drums sound huge and full!

Snares galore!

Flex-Tuned maple, Kalamazoo Series Bronze and aluminum, wood hoops, piccolo snares, popcorn snares and more! All feature our patented Infinite Snare Bed!

This snare was incredible- This is Aaron Latos who worked on the Engineering and Manufacturing of these limited 400th anniversary Zildjian drums. There are some very cool details and manufacturing processes involved in making these cast-bronze snare drums, and they sounded fantastic! The $4k price tag keeps it out of my reach, but very cool regardless! https://zildjian.com/

New Custom options from Ludwig https://www.ludwig-drums.com/

Love the WTS system- stay tuned for some potential collabs! https://www.welchtuningsystems.com/

Amazing stuff from Royal Cymbals! https://royalcymbals.com/

I definitely should have taken more photos of Timothy Roberts Cymbals and Reverie- really great sounding cymbals!

Koide has some really unique sounds- they are pushing the limits on what cymbals can do- check them out! http://www.koidecymbals.com/

The finish on this Yamaha Oak kit looked like a Strata!
