I think the best gift for any drummer is a cowbell. It doesn't matter if they have one, there's always room for more.

[Firefrostdrums]

Regarding sticks, here's a tip for drummer using electronic drums like me : anti-vibe sticks. They really ease the pain in the wrist due to rubber pads 🙂

[kian]

Great list! And not only for gift givers, but also us drummers wanting to expand our wishlist!

[LowBoyBeaters]

Thank you so much for including us! Happy Holidays to everyone at Drumeo!

"We lose stuff like this all the time." - yeets it on the floor -

[marcpatzelt]

OMG! I didn't knew about the drop clutch! This is the best thing ever!

[Riley_drums]

Kick block literally saved my life. Legit saved my kit

[StrappingYoungLadam]

I live on a townhouse complex and my drums are in the basement. For Christmas this year I got a set of Arborea Mute Cymbals, which are similar to Sabian Quiet tone but more affordable. My wife bought me a brand new throne to replace the cheap one I bought over 10 years ago as a teen. Definitely great presents.

[fabiodias]

Love this video. As someone who's coming back to drumming after a 10 year break, this was super helpful :)

[Jeff-jzpr]

Drumeo upload means it's a good day

[garycordle]

I would say the drum dial is the most important gift, after I got one it's a must have, your drums will love you and your right on the money every time 👍

[billbigler]

Great video Jared. Happy holidays to you and all the great folks at Drumeo. Bill.

[jonnyive]

The Evans torque key is killer, I've used this product for years, it works very very well.

[tres.I.I.I]

For sure the drum dial, for me tuning was always like pulling teeth and now I look forward to it.

[JoelAzia]

I hit the like button even before pressing the play button. I see DRUMEO, I know it’s gonna be good.

[AshStGreen]

Top suggestions;
KickBlock
Snareweight
Big Fat Snare
Moises
& the Yamaha EAD.
All utterly invaluable products & drumming extras I’ll probably keep using well into the next decade.
Amazing pieces of equipment & companies worth their weight in gold 🙏

[joetroutt]

If you buy a head for the snare make sure it's the brand the drummer uses. If you get an Evans or a Remo they may use Aquarian or vice versa. If you don't want to ask just sneak a peak at his drumset and look. There are different kinds within that brand too so it may be best to inquire.

Now i got cool Gift Ideas for my Friend👍Thank You

[rigosalazar]

You should consider inviting a Mexican/Hispanic drummer. Drumming Hispanic music like norteñas, cumbias, quebraditas, Huapangos. This is all a style of drumming for Hispanic music and with its own unique grooves and rhythms.

[ZOB]

I have a cheap (around $100 10 years ago when I bought it) PDP piccolo snare that sounds amazing, and works great as a secondary snare. If I got that as a gift, I'd be super excited.
