Aviator Rack Tom

Sale price Price $ 750.00 Regular price

The A&F Drum Co. Aviator Series are directly inspired by the beautiful historic US Planes of old!  Identical to the Featherweights, the Aviator series are handmade from Aircraft grade aluminum, these drums break all drum sound and weight barriers!  With a full dynamic range of tunings, depth of sound and incredible warmth, it’s an anomaly that they are some of the lightest drums ever made!

All Aviator drums are made from aircraft grade aluminum shells, hoops, lugs and hardware, that's right ALL ALUMINUM with Remo Ambassador heads and a raw brushed finish.

We hand cut, roll, weld, and sand our shells and hoops.  Then we brush all the metal in house, we hand cut 45 deg bearing edges, then add our patented aluminum center-mounted lugs and hardware.  

These Rack Toms weigh under 4lbs!!!

We can make any size diameter and depth you can dream of. If you would like size beyond what is available in the drop down, please contact us directly with your custom order.

The Aviator Series are full body and extremely dynamic, not loud by any means but tune lower than their sizes and have a perfect balance between punch, warmth, and attack.  Like ALL our drums, a sound engineers dream, they are extremely microphone friendly! 


Each drum is built to order.

Lead Time: 16 weeks (20" or larger may take longer as custom heads will need to be ordered).
