HB Drums Opens USA Custom Facility – Drumming Up Jobs In America

Dec. 21, 2010 - PRLog -- HB Drums in Huntington Beach, Ca. announced the opening of their new USA drum manufacturing facility in Orange County, Ca.   HB Drums, a division of SurfCity Music, has been selling HB branded drum designs throughout the USA & Canada since 2002.
            HB Drums Director, Dave Moody, commented on his decision to bring production to America.  “Beyond the physical, quality control and communication challenges of manufacturing in Asia, there’s an innate desire to build drums in the USA, made by Americans!”  “We feel strongly about bringing options to the consumer never before readily accessible due to cost or delivery time.  Our new manufacturing facility combines globally sourced raw materials with a team of experienced woodworking professionals that have been plying their trade for over 20 years.”  
           Mr. Moody was asked how HB Drums compares to the competition on features and costs.  “We have considered American labor costs versus cheap offshore wages and combined American made precision craftsmanship with a semi automated process designed to fill custom requests quickly at competitive prices.”   Mr. Moody went on to state, “Our hybrid approach allows us to be competitive with all the major brand models made in Asia and half the price of their USA made drum kit models.  We realize that no matter how patriotic people wish to be, HB Drums needs to be competitive in the marketplace. “
          The representative continued by elaborating on HB Drums marketing plans.  “We have developed our custom shop to offer virtual in stock turnaround time.  HB Drums can customize dozens of options such as finish, shell depth, cosmetic parts, drum hardware, drum heads etc. and create an entirely custom drum set for the end user or drum dealer.”  In addition, Mr. Moody states, “We may be the only drum company building custom drums in America with a real time custom drum designer website.  HBDrums.com has implemented drum designer models to easily modify components and features.  The custom drum designer apps offer the capability of creating and purchasing online with custom order on the way within days.”  Mr. Moody continued, “We have virtual 3D - 360 degree rotating drum models going live online currently with the ability to visually render custom designs using the latest Microsoft 3D technology.”
        HB Drums custom shop manager, Rick Rogers, discussed the challenges of manufacturing HB Drums.   “I assembled my team and outfitted our facility with automated parts bins and created custom templates and molds for all shell sizes.  I prepared techniques and processes by adhering to best practice quality control methods with our mission and desire to meet drummer’s needs and exceed expectations.  It’s an exciting new way to create and purchase drums and we’re hoping for everyone’s support and confidence in the new USA HB Drums.”  “We have full customization capabilities and inventory for 48 hour turnaround time on standard drum kits with dozens of finish and parts options to choose from online and in stock.”  Mr. Rogers went on to say, “We’ve made a huge improvement in quality over the imports with precision cuts and bearing edges and want the drumming public to know that we are making better drums here in America!”
