BAY Custom Drums Limited is an English company, founded in 2014 by Ian BOWMAN & his family. With over 30 years of experience in high-quality finishing across wood, metal, acrylic, and plastic, Ian combined his craftsmanship with his lifelong passion for music (especially for drums) to create something truly special.

Every drum we build is handcrafted to order, using a multi-ply construction method. Each shell is then meticulously finished and assembled by Ian himself, ensuring the highest level of care and precision. Before leaving our workshop, every instrument is carefully tuned, tested, and adjusted to meet our exacting standards.

After years of intensive research, BAY Custom Drums offers great quality tailor-made instruments, with unique sounds and looks.

At BAY Custom Drums, we believe your instrument should be as unique as your playing style and personality. That’s why we work closely with every customer - listening, advising, and guiding you to create a kit that truly suits you.

You won’t find price lists for 'custom' orders here, because every drum is bespoke, every order is one of a kind.

For all enquiries, quotes, and any other information, please get in touch - we’re always happy to chat.
