Drum Palace

Great communication and fast delivery for a high end Sonor snare drum. Goods as described and Andrew is quite knowledgeable.

Excellent products and service.

Kicking myself I didn't go this route with all my initial cymbal purchases. Sabian hi hats and Zildijan A custom series ride sound fantastic.

Andrew was very helpful. Demo'ing multiple different cymbals to find 'the sound i had in my head' was no sweat.

Highly recommended!

Purchased an amazing Sonor S Class Maple from Andrew from an online add in a FaceBook group. Kit was shipped from Melbourne up to me in Tweed Heads right near the QLD border for a very reasonable price in a professional manner and arrived in brilliant condition. Very happy and impressed with every step of this transaction!

One of the best drum shop/houses ever! Drum kits, cymbals and hardware from floor to ceiling, every single room! Great prices and the best range of second hand gear around. Check out one part of the skins room in the pic. Go there, give Andrew your money and take a trailer!

Has an incredibly poor online reputation.
Most in the drumming community know this and avoid him like the plague

I found Andrew from a listing on Gumtree for a ride cymbal. He let me try out as many cymbals as I wanted to find the perfect match. He is super nice and knowledgeable about drum equipment/music. Cannot recommend enough if you are looking for used/vintage drum gear.

Got a great deal with Andrew, I discovered him on GumTree as I was interested with the set of Floor Tom drums he was selling. I liked his kit and had a bit of a play on it. I honestly just wanted to do business rather than to waste time sadly. Great lad, but could use a better presentation on his store. Might come back future wise.

Top prices for excellent pre-owned gear.
Will be checking here first before any other Melb.drum shops (. Cough, cough, drumtek.) that are always slow to deliver, always blame the distributor and over priced.top job Andrew at Drum Palace Will defs.be back for more Zildjian K's!

Got a beautiful old snare drum posted with very bent snare wires. Drum Power sells them. WHY SEND ME BENT WIRES?

It was great doing business with Andrew, I finally got the product I wanted from what he advertised on Gumtree. Might come back

Very happy customer. Bought a 22 inch zildjian swish knocker, good price and fast delivery. Will be buying more

Bought my second drum kit from andrew after 23 years what a gem of a person great to do business with

Purchased a full kit. Charming service, wealth of knowledge. Andrew, the owner, walked the walk and talked the talk. Took us through the basics of tuning and maintenance. Has a rainbow lorikeet. 10/10 would recommend.

Been to this place twice now. And both times Andrew, the owner, was extremely helpful and accommodating. He helped me pick an awesome drum kit + hardware and cymbals. I don't know anywhere else in Melbourne where I could get the same service, and try a bunch of different drums and cymbals for hours before making a decision. Andrew is also a great source of knowledge and gave me much great advice to assist me in my decision making. He is also very generous with his pricing and did me some great deals. I can't wait to visit his drum palace again for another great shopping experience.

Best dealer in Melbourne for vintage and pre-loved drum gear! It is always a pleasure to visit.

I made inquiries about a drum stool that was posted on Gumtree. We agreed on a slightly reduced price. Numerous texts flowed back and forth arranging collection on a certain date at a certain time. NOTE: No deposit was requested. The day before I was to collect, I get a text message saying that the stool was sold to somebody else! What kind of business ethics is that? I understand the stool sold for the original asking price. ($10 more than my price.) Andrew "explained" that he was not sure if I would even turn up, as Gumtree buyers are always messing him about, and I had not paid a holding deposit. That just sucks. I am in the market for more drum equipment, but I will never again consider purchasing from this crowd.

I have known Andrew for over 30 years and I have always known him to be super friendly and very knowledgeable and all round nice guy! Cheers Winston Galea.

I purchased a beautiful pearl kit made in the 70s over the New Years period from Andrew at Drum Palace. He was super friendly and professional the whole way through, packed it up nicely and shipped it safely to me in Canberra. Given the time I made the purchase, the quality of service never dropped. I was really blown away with the customer service and not to mention quality of drum kit. I highly recommend and trust this crew! So rad.

Huge and I mean HUGE range of vintage and used drums, I went out to Doncaster to pick up a DW cymbal bag and I was blown away by both the quantity and quality of used drum gear at Drum Palace. The guys here are very knowledgeable, helpful and great to chat to.

Andrew is a very knowledgeable and helpful guy. I recommend Drum Palace if you need 'any' spare part or help with your drum kit as well as people who are starting out to play drums. ZOSO
