About Dd Drums
dD Drums are a drum and percussion retailer with a fantastic range of products. We are also the largest drum tuition practice in Scotland!
Dd Drums Description
Little did respected drummer and drum teacher David Dowell know that when he started selling a few drumsticks in his well established drum tuition centre that in only a few years he would be running the largest specialised Drum Shop in Central Scotland. Based in Falkirk, halfway between Glasgow and Edinburgh, with easy parking right outside the shop, there is no reason to have to deal with the stress of big city shopping.
dD Drums now holds stock of the biggest names in the drum world including Premier, Gretsch, Ludwig and Alesis. We also stock lovely shiny cymbals from Istanbul Agop, Paiste and Stagg and a whole ex-forest of sticks from the likes of Vic Firth, Promark, Los Cabos and Silverfox.
To keep you sounding at your best we stock only the best skins from Remo, Evans and Aquarian and our huge range of percussion and accessories is second to none in the central belt.

Getting my final preparations done ahead of meeting some new students tonight - not 1, not 2 or even 3 but 12 new student drummers tonight! Taking the вАШdD Drums RockinвАЩ RoadshowвАЩ out to the lovely folks at Redding and Westquarter Cricket Club for an evening of Drums and Drumming. Beat sheets, name tags and a pair of sticks for everyone - in the hope they keep the cricket bats away from my lovely drums! рЯ§£рЯ•Б рЯПП More pics to follow for sure. dD

Had an overdue request to honour - a drum cover of Easy Lover by Phil Collins and Phillip Bailey - so I had my first run through the other night. Absolute cracker of a song with great drums in it and despite still reading it I had great fun- until... HereвАЩs the last minute of that run. Note to self - learn the song or at least bring the music stand closer!!! Hope you enjoy. dD рЯСКрЯ§£

Ever since learning the incredible Steve Gadd offset double stroke idea IвАЩve been hooked on jamming with it and love grooving away on it. Not fit for for every occasion to be honest but a great feel to play - A practice room groove you might say and is certainly up there with playing fills to get fired for... рЯСКрЯ§£ However hereвАЩs a wee minute of me grooving around having fun on the idea. dD рЯ•БвЭ§пЄП

With his recent relocation to Edinburgh and becoming so busy as a working drummer heвАЩs no longer able to keep up wit...h working at dD Great to see you Grow Kyle and sad to see you go. hereвАЩs a couple pics of your best bits buddy. dD. рЯСКрЯ§£

Warm welcome, excellent service, and knowledgeable, friendly staff. Great little shop with plenty of gear.
Thanks Dave to you and great staff yesterday for a brilliant service and for top quality equipment I bought from yoi yesterday DW 500 pedal and the Roland RH -300 V.
Many more visits to come from me mate over the few months ahead and thanks for you grear support with all my great Scottish Drummers. Cheers
Stopped in for a brief visit over the summer and possibly found my new favourite drum shop, such character about the place and the service was first class and super friendly. Would 100% recommend this place. пњљпњљ
Retail therapy for tub-thumpers! Dave and Stu are highly knowledgeable, friendly and very accommodating. Faultless after-sales service, having dealt with an out-of-box failure without fuss or bother. Also restored my 1987 Premier HR9 far beyond my expectations and at a very reasonable price. An excellent range of kit available (to order where necessary), all competitively priced. Free parking is always a good thing too! If I have any complaint at all it is only that the coffee mugs are far too small! :-)
Recently sold my kit through the shop and the service has been outstanding. The guys had my kit looking like new for a very reasonable price! Always made to feel welcome with a good chat and coffee, a nice personal touch from dD drums!
Ordered some new cymbals for an exam and they arrived within 2 days from the factory in Germany. Was even offered the option to rent cymbals if there were any issues with the delivery. Incredible service, definitely recommend to anyone looking for good quality equipment and some great chat while you're there!
Great shops great guys at the shop, Very helpful. Just bought a Carrera Funkster snare drum sounds amazing thanks guys. Would recommend this shop to anyone.
Great shop. David was a great help in getting me the cymbals and sticks I wanted. Took the time to show me a wide range of different cymbals sticks, and made sure I got what I wanted. Thoroughly recommend this shop to any percussionist.
Great customer service after chatting through messenger they had my order ready for me arriving and got it swapped over in no time at all! Would highly recommend
Good little shop. Good friendly atmosphere. Excellent drum tuition. Very knowledgeable towards drumming and always keen to help your drumming needs.
Fantastic shop with 1st class service for all your drum needs.
Nothing is too much trouble for them, they can even arrange a custom bass drum head for you at a price you will find hard to beat elsewhere.
Fantastic shop for all your drumming needs. They also offer drumming tuition from beginners and those wanting to learn a new style
David is amazing drum teacher, my eldest goes with a spring in his step everytime it comes to a lesson from the team at dD drums be it Kyle or David. Their passion, patience and all round good guys vibe shine thru ... cant rate them high enough.. coffee meant to be ace ..but dont like coffee so cannae rate that ..
