Forgive me. I have neglected to blog recently. And we have some big news. I mean BIG news. Thanks to some very generous donations last week, we have raised enough support to begin production on Phase 1 of Roberts Drums! Yes, you heard me correctly - Phase 1 begins RIGHT NOW! You have no idea how excited I am. I can barely contatin myself!
So, I did what any self-respecting new drum builder would do - I purchased all the parts and supplies that I need in order to begin construction! The majority of the parts will be here in the next couple of weeks. However, the special Ludwig lug casings that I needed will be arriving today! Drumheads have also been purchased and are in-hand. And just last night, I ordered the special custom Roberts Drum Company logo bass drum head! I must say, it looks pretty sweet! You will all dig it - trust me.
And in case you were wondering, we are still accepting dontations - should anyone feel like they want to help out. Any future dontations will be set aside for Phase 2 of Roberts Drums - which is more of a marketing phase, and will include a second "demo" drumkit, as well as professional audio samples of our drums for your listening pleasure on our website.
To all of you who have given of your time, energy and resources, I can't tell you enough how grateful and humbled I am by your generousity. Thank you so much for helping to shape this vision of mine. I'll be in touch soon...once the woodshavings start flying!
Brian
