Since the Fall of 1994…
…Mlasko Quality Custom drums have been built in the Pacific Northwest by Aaron Mlasko. Many custom drum companies have come and gone since then, but few build better drums and have the experience of a world-class touring and studio drum technician behind them. –Actually, who else does? New builders sprout up every day, but we’ve got some serious “know-how” under our belt here, and that’s something you can trust. When it comes to spending yr hard-earned money, you should know yr stuff is being built by a pro. All this to say: if you’ve been looking for drums that are a hand-crafted extension of YOU and yr playing style, something classy and unique that you can be proud of and that will serve you for a very long time, you’ve come to the right place. Many talented drummers all over the U.S. and beyond have discovered that Mlasko drums are some of the best in the world. They’re hand-made with great attention to detail, one at a time by a drummer-artisan. They sound incredible, in part because they are made to sound the way YOU need them to by someone who knows how. Everything I build literally has my name on it, and to be honest, I’m really not interested in building a drum that I know won’t look good and sound good for a long time. Other than that, the options are quite vast. There’s plenty of other folks out there building corny drums with goofy gimmicks. Our ‘gimmick’ is extremely good drum-building with (at least) a little nod toward the classic drums of yesteryear. Mlasko drums are different from other drums because of who builds them. They’re NOT for everyone, and that’s a GOOD thing!
