Alan van Kleef hand crafts drums that are defined by precision, material integrity, and exceptional sound. Stainless steel forms the foundation of the hoops, lugs, and hardware, giving each VK Drums instrument its unmistakable character.
Founded in 2012 and built in Alan’s workshop, VK Drums specializes in producing custom snares and full kits from an exceptional range of metals, including stainless steel, aluminium, titanium, bronze, silver, and gold. Every detail is meticulously considered, from solid machined lugs to hand-rolled hoops.
The result is a voice so distinctive that VK Drums have become the instruments of choice for artists including Steve Gadd, Thomas Lang, and Danny Carey.
Many models feature a laser-cut VK air vent in place of a badge, with bespoke designs etched or cut directly into the shell.
The sound quality is unbelievable.
“It is incredibly expressive and really sounds great on the 3 hour gig!!!”
It sounds as beautiful as it looks.
“Ah man, beautiful!!”
Holy smokes, man! Gorgeous works of art! Both sound killer. I recorded one last night and it was great—such a fantastic vintage sound.
Sounds awesome dry and quick - hollow but present - mellow yet snappy! With midrange too.
“WOW!!!!! I love it. This drum is beautiful and sounds absolutely killer. The look of these drums is so friggin' slick, I totally dig it. DAMN!”
