Dixon Drums is a drum and drum hardware manufacturer based in Taipei, Taiwan, founded in 1979.

History

Exclusively distributed in the United States by St. Louis Music supply, Dixon Drums and Hardware is considered a rising star in the acoustic drum business. Established by its Taiwan-based parent company with over 35 years experience in quality drum and hardware manufacturing, Dixon embraces both sound and function in its effort to advance the art of drumming through the craft of drum making.

Playability, reliability and sustainability shape the Dixon vision as a full-line drum brand able to adapt to all styles, deliver at all levels, and stand the test of time; nothing validates these achievements more than the signing of Grammy Award winning drummer Gregg Bissonette to Dixon endorsement roster. Gregg is a renowned L.A. session/touring artist currently touring the world on Dixon drums alongside Ringo Starr with his All Starr Band.

Drum lines

In 2011, Dixon launched its current drum set line up consisting of Riot, Spark, Fuse, Blaze and Artisan.
