Drum Buddy Snare Drum Carrier

The seasoned parade drummer and the aspiring student alike will love the DrumBuddy, an affordable, lightweight and comfortable marching snare drum holder. In the past, the only way to march with a snare drum was either to use the modern marching drum with holder or a traditional snare balanced with a strap or sling. DrumBuddy has essentially combined the two concepts, creating a much less expensive alternative.

The DrumBuddy was first created for the Middle School age group to remedy the shortage of adequate marching percussion equipment. Soon after its development, it was clear that the DrumBuddy had a far wider range of use than first anticipated. The traditional parade drummer will appreciate the lightweight design and a younger player can simply add their existing drumset snare drum to this carrier and march around the negihborhood.

The DrumBuddy consists of a chest plate and drum tray made of lightweight, high impact plastic attached to the player by a polypropolene harness, similar to the new saxophone straps that go around the chest. The diameter of DrumBuddy (17") allows all modern snares (which range from 13" to 15" in diameter) to fit with extra room for the drum's hardware. The DrumBuddy requires no special tools for assembly or adjustment. Installing the drum is as easy as placing it on a table, and the harness is simple to put on and adjust. Led by a passion for quality, the development of the DrumBuddy went through 10 prototypes over a two year period. This long process of combining the right design with the right materials assures that DrumBuddy is an effective, dependable product and is 100% manufactured in the USA.
