This is my go-to store for real service! Stan and Jerry know their stuff! I’ve had lots of work (repaired pedals, stands,, and tom holders etc) done here and they always do an excellent job. Most recently I had Jerry put a new Gretsch tom holder bracket on my bass drum. I brought in the drum and he took care of it on the spot. And Stan is currently cutting my bass drum down, from 18” to 14”. I hate long bass drums. Shorter bass drums are punchier. Picking it up either today or tomorrow and I can’t wait!They also have a great inventory of classic, quality drum sets, and snare drums.A little trivia. That’s Buddy Rich’s drum set behind me in that photo.

I have shopped here since 1966. I rated it 5 stars because I couldn’t rate it 10! Stan, Jerry and their staff are the most knowledgeable, friendly, talented and effective drum guys anywhere. Period. I have purchased drum sets, snare drums, timbales, cymbals, bell trees, sticks, mallets, kalimbas, flexatones, heads and more from them. Always feels like going home. ♥️🥁

Classic piece of music history. Great variety of quality drum brands

Best drum shop Ive ever been to, hands down! Wont shop anywhere else. Great selection, incredibly knowledgable, friendly, and really helpful.

A wonderful and historical drum shop for pros and beginners alike. Super friendly and knowledgeable staff. Large stock of drums and accessories. It’s been around forever. A rare gem. - John Mader (Hamilton, Carl Verheyen)

Most historically great drum shop in California get it done correctly what you need to get is right thereYours truly Moon

Pro Drum Shop treats everyone like they are a world famous drummer.Staff was friendly. Drums were all priced where I could of taken them all home.When you go visit...buy something. An egg shaker to a drum set. Rent isnt cheap there.

This is a one of a kind drum shop that doesnt exist anywhere else in the universe.

Friendly and attentive staff with a wide selection of modern and vintage drums and cymbals. Fair prices. Most historic drum shop in LA where the pros go. They do repairs too

Best drum shop in LA. Stan is a legend.

If youre a percussionist, this shop will get you in trouble. Besides having some of traditional and unique instruments, this shop has well educated staff providing the best customer service. I originally went there to get some new claves, but I left with a Salsa Handheld Cowbell 😁! The gentleman who assisted this self taught Percussionist, gave me tips on how to select drum sticks, listening for various tones and he even complimented me on my playing. Before leaving I played around with this Steel Drum. GREAT DRUM SHOP TO CHECK OUT 🥁🎶👏🏼!

I have lived and gigged in LA for thirty years. Ive been coming to Pro Drum for thirty years. To say I LOVE this place is an understatement. Stan and Jerry are a treasure for the drumming community in this incredible city. Ive had GREAT conversations with Smitty Smith, Brian Blade, Jeff Hamilton, James Gadsen, Denny Seiwell and of course Stan and Jerry. Its like going to AP history but really fun. If you play drums you owe it to yourself to go there at least once.

Pro Drum Shop is absolutely one of the best of the best. Unlike big box music stores where when you talk to somebody about any given thing related to Drums, you’re liable to get some less–than–accurate information. However at PRO Drim, everybody knows their stuff and they’ve always been most helpful. In fact they actually saved my black beauty snare drum when It was hit by a car! Stan and Jerry and co. Made it look like new and sound better than ever! They are really two people who are irreplaceable. Pro Drum Shop is absolutely one of the best of the best. Highly recommended! .

This is absolutely the best drum shop I have ever been in. Stan and Jerry are the coolest cats you could ever meet. Huge inventory of everything from the world of Percussion . Family owned since 1959.

Great drum store with knowledgeable and friendly employees. Went there to find vintage snare parts and found it. Great service, making some of the repairs on the spot. Cant ask for more. This kind of store is so needed in SoCal.

If your a drummer and love to buy your sticks to drum kits and accessories. This place is way better than corporate guitar center and sam ash. The 2 gentlemen at the shop very helpful and asking anything about drums. They can sure help you out. In anyway possible. I recommend this place

Best drum shop in town.

The one and only - great place to find whatever you need.

The Gentlemen At Hollywood Professional Drum Shop Are Amazing & Extremely Helpful Everytime I travel 25 miles to shop there. Thanks Jerry, Stan, Chris & Co. You All Rock 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁😁👍✌

Nice place with lots of history.

This place is the Mecca for drummers and I can’t put into words the amount of knowledge, wisdom and Experience the guys have at this place. They’ve been around forever and hopefully always will be. This shop has it all that customer could ask for. Words are not enough to describe the class this shop has and it’s all because of the people who run this place God Bless everyone there and no other place in the world can compare to this shop. It’s shops like this that make this country great!

Great selection and outstanding service!

A drummers dream shop.....you feel like your part of the family in the store.Great selection, knowledge to no end.....great store....deserves more than 5 stars

Amazing drum shop, they have almost everything you can imagine, great customer service, its hard to not spend at least an hour browsing the store, so much inventory, drummers heaven

Probably the greatest place on planet Earth.

The. Best.

They have everything! ‘Nuff said

The people are awesome, found the cymbals in right range of budget and gave me some advice for muting the drums.

I needed a part for my hi hat stand and they grabbed it within seconds. The place is just packed with drumming history and endless amount of drum gear and the staff are cool and super helpful. Its a really great shop. Im looking forward to my next visit.

Best drum shop of all time!

After many years, I paid a recent visit while in town. Its still THE place to go if youre a drummer. Great attitude, helpful people who you can tell enjoy working there. Do not even hesitate and stop by, even if only for the experience... but I doubt youll come out empty-handed!

Was just walked through a phone consultation that resulted in me not spending money in their store. EXTREMELY knowledgeable staff; this guy was able to keep up with me on questions about nuts and bolts on drums from 50 years ago. I cant wait to come in and give them money for just existing.

The best drum shop Ive ever been to, went there specifically to find a pair of vintage style bass drum spurs because a friend bought a C&C used drums but they were lost during shipping, I found them there after looking everywhere with no luck. They have everything for drums youll find anything youll need. Never coming back to any shop but this one

Stan worked on my snare drums today. I thought I was going to trade them in, but now after he worked on them for me, there like new drums... You just cant find that kind of long term knowledge anywhere... I wont be trading them in any time soon. AWESOME

One of the best drum shops in the world. Stan and Jerry are legends. Go for the gear stay for the stories. Find a unique rare snare, update a kick drum pedal to a cocktail kit kick drum pedal, calf skin a front bass drum head, find the perfect trap case, these guys can do anything and find you anything you could dream of percussion related. One of the best hangs, truly a legendary space. Thank you Stan and Jerry!

This is the only place to go for any Drum or percussion related things. These guys are the best and most knowledgeable. Great people too. Thanks to Pro Drum for always being there for me.

Jerry & Stan two great all drums guys. Whatever the challenge they can resolve it. Show up around lunch time..theyll share their lunch with you....yeah right!!!

Great People to do business with!Im in Texas so all of my dealings with them are online . That being said, if I ever have a question or concern, they are more than willing to help, in every way possible.Great people, great inventory and great service, what more could you ask for?

Amazing place !!! Just experienced a warm and friendly welcome !!! Found my sticks, and couldnt stop watching those great and legendary they have ! Big thank to Steve and all the members of the crew !!!

Great experience working with Jose. Their computer system showed a different part than the Toyota part number I have. So, Jose worked with what was in stock and sold me what I need. I noticed friendly and efficient help provided by other employees, also. Wouldda been 5 stars if system referenced the correct part.

The best shop for drums and cymbals in Los Angeles. No question. Their expertise is second to none, they repair drums and cymbals at a fair price, and there is so much history in this place. Highly recommend for any drummer to visit.

Legit shop. No corporate bs this a real musicians spot. I mean the just boxes of parts everywhere its awesome!

Fun, crammed old school shop full of new and used gear. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Used parts, repairs, and cymbal cuts as well.

This place is like heaven for drummers! If you love drums you MUST check this place out! Stan was more then helpful, and I really had fun looking at all the cool stuff they have. I got a few obscure items that no one else would have in stock in the area, and the pricing was excellent.

Stan and his brother own this specialty shop for drums. They can fix, cut down-re-size any drum and it will be primo!! In the 80s Stan made a 8x14 wood snare and its still beautiful. Stay strong Brothers!!

Always professional !! Stan and his brother know their business well... theyre in business for than 40 years... highly recommend 🥁

This is must to visit store for drummer. A lot of stuff varieties and the price is good.Foreigner needs to anticipate the tax charge in the their respective entry airport by the local Tax Officer.

. Fantastic customer service with so many drums to choose from. Informative and very friendly. Couldnt speak more highly.

Great selection and service. Knowledgeable staff. Anything drum-related, they can help.

Just excellent for all drummers and percussion players to shop at wonderful service been going there since 1977

The Drum Shop youre looking for they have everything nice drums for sale you can probably water or sell and buy. A percussionist Paradise!!

This store is great but got here at 4:30 on a Saturday and they’re closed. They list their hours as 9-5 on Saturdays

Stan and Jerry are absolutely great. They have everything! What a great vibe. Every drummer should make a pilgrimage here at least once if only to see the Buddy Rich kit.

Great shop, great products, friendly service! Thanks guys 😎

Its were drummers feel right at home

The best shop in town. Stan, Jerry, Simon and the rest are the most knowledgeable and helpful group you could ever find.

I may not be a pro, but they treat me like one. Stan and Jerry are the best. This is the best drum shop anywhere.

Greatest drum shop ever

Knowledgeable staff, THE place for all things DRUM!!!

Best Drum Shop in all of LA! Jerry and his crew are the nicest people!

I like going there but Guitar Center has lower prices.

These guys are great at all things drums.... repairs and ordering and recommendations.... The best !!!!!

My Love affair with drums started in the late 1970s when my Dad used to rehearse at The Musicians Union(Local 47) across the street. He would take me with him(I was about 7years old) and he would need Skins for his Congas and sticks and what not. It was a time when everything was just great in Hollywood. Emergency! was on T.V. as well as Adam 12, life was good then. My life would change though very early and I didnt see it coming. One day he said, come with me to the Drum Shop. The minute I first walked in with him, IT WAS OVER!!! All Star Wars Figures, Hot Wheels, BMX Bike, Atari 2600 and everything else a Normal kid would want was out of mind. All I wanted for the longest time was DRUMS. I had asked, pleaded, begged and kicked and screamed about having a set. I think my parents held out because they wanted a child to concentrate on school and not becoming just like Dad. It was an awakening for me, a deep love for playing music, truly understanding phrasing in composition, the group comradeship of making songs up, all the high fives after a set and the list goes on. Well, this is now 35 years later and my love has grown to have 38 vintage drum sets(All Ludwig & Gretsch) and 64 snare drums(all Ludwig & Gretsch) and counting. It has been a pleasure to be a continued patron at a Legendary Hollywood Place such as Professional Drum Shop. All my needs, they have and my relationship with Stan & Jerry is awesome, they have that well take care of you vibe. I am very pleased this place came into my life. It changed me forever and my deep passion is because of the greatness I saw there. Thanks Fellas and keep up the good work. Professional Drum Shop, the very best go to the very best, Cheers! Danny Rivera-Vintage Drum Collector

A drummers drum shop.. great products . Great prices ..great people .. Drove up from San Diego just to buy my Ludwigs here.😎

Amazing history and probably the best service you can get anywhere at the same prices as big box stores.

Always great atmosphere, Veryfriendly.

Great local support and historically important for music and drums

I wish I could tell the stories about my dealings with the professional drum shop. I worked across the street at the musicians union little store that was run by Maury Stein.Because Maury Was a Big Man in Town they tolerated me.There was several drummers who were disliked by either Bob or Chuck and Chuck once hit me on the head with a drum head.I filed a police report and he had to show up at a hearing and he hated me ever after.Once I found Bob Yeager asleep and he was so drunk I couldve taken a set of drums and he wouldnt have known it.Instead, I woke him up. I saw a tribute to the late Freddie Gruber who I knew in 1958.. It Was organized by Jim Keltner. He spoke about Mike Romero who the owners of the shop really disliked. When Mike was 16 he was already a fantastically accomplished drummer. They didnt like me because they couldnt figure out who I was. I played drums with Dexter Gordon, Benny Carter, Dave Pike and I had the house band at the Haig and that was where Charlie Haden met Ornette Coleman who I had invited to the gig. I knew and loved Nick Ceroli and Earl Palmer and Roy Haynes were friends from the 50s. Earl took me to the Grammys in 1994 and after he retired we talked on the phone all the time. I did TV work, recording work and I played every kind of music including jazz, country and western,middle eastern and with comedians like Don Rickles, Spike Jones, and Jerry Colonna. I played shows in Las Vegas, Reno, Lake Tahoe, and Canada and so many other places I dont remember. I remember the old drum shop on Santa Monica Blvd called Drum City.They treated ed me like royalty and they were great guys and I should have stuck with them. I dont know the new guys and I wish them luck but there is so many drum stories that I could tell. Probably none of you people knew Gene Gammage who was from LA and he played and recorded with Oscar Peterson or Reed Vaughn who played with Stan Kenton and another drummer I wish that I could remember his name.He played at the Lighthouse and he was also an excellent piano player. I knew Frank Butler because we were in San Quentin together. He couldnt walk in the doors of the drum shops because he would steal anything he could but he also played with Miles Davis and John Coltrane.I met Buddy Rich at the Pro drum shop. Bob Yeager was having a heart attack watching Buddy fooling around on a practice pad. I knew Stan Levy and Sol Gubin and Norm Jeffries who played on the Hollywood Palace TV show and Claudio Slon who played with Brazil 66 and Walter Wanderly. So many names of so many drummers like Larance Marable, who played with Charlie Parker and Hank Milo who moved back to New York and became one of the best show drummers on Broadway.I played in a rock band that played only top 40 rhythm and blues. They were three Chicanos and I was a New York Jew and we sounded like we were African American. LA in those days held so much promise but the last time I was there was for Teddy Edwards Memorial service at the union.LA was a sad sight to behold.I wish the new owners all the best and I hope the people who work there dont have the same mean-spirited outlook for the people they didnt like.I am giving them five stars because I hope they are not what their predecessors were.

This is the place to go if you are looking for knowledge.

One of the best drum shops Ive ever been in.

One of the iconic drum shops in the US always a fun stop

Best damn drum shop on this planet, maybe even beyond.

Great store with various musical equipment. Parking in rear and in front.

Crazy good drums they got! 5 stars ofc!

Just the coolest drum shop on earth. Period.

In my experience, their prices are as low as online prices, and sometimes lower. And I dont think the Guitar Center would have let me take a couple cajons out to the parking lot to see how they sounded without any other drums resonating around them!

Rare value and selection given by this non-big box store, store.

I always fine what i need..thanks Stan Dave. Danny.

Great selection. Everything you would expect from a boutique drum shop

Best drum shop on the planet, and one of my favorite places on Earth.

Great service and great selection of instruments

Great selection of stiff for the professional or professional wannabe drummer. Took my nephew who is a professional drummer from Chicago, was like a kid in a candy store.

Great drum shop. Buy and repair.

The best

The Spot, An Icon

Good place to buy new and replace broken or missing parts, they do repairs on mostly all brands,

I get all my drums for there since 1970

Dont get your instruments fixed here. Useless and ineffective.

Friendly service and great variety.

Expert and helpful staff.

A gem of the music biz, very friendly owner. Features Buddy Richs last kit.

Thee best drum shop....period !

My favorite place to be

Always great service!

They exactly what I needed.
