New Pic of the DRUM WALLET


Here is a great shot of the new Brooklyn Gear "Drum Wallet". This drum dampener was created with Trevor Lawrence Jr. who is on tour and the Music Director for Snoop Dogg.

The Drum Wallet idea came during a dinner one night in NYC with the gang from Brooklyn Gear, Trevor Lawrence and the great bass player and KSD endorsee Byron Miller. Both artists were in town rehearsing at SIR with Jennifer Lopez for her upcoming tour. Trevor said he had a great idea for a drum dampener. So after some rough drawings on a few bar napkins.....the Drum Wallet was created.

Everyone who we have given one to try does not want to give it back! It is easy to attach and use. It comes with a drum key and two metal plates. You can use either one or both metal plate to adjust the amount of pressure on the drum head. Some artists are even putting their credit cards and driver license in the wallet instead of the metal plates.

What also excites us at Brooklyn Gear about the Drum Wallet project is how it came about. An artist had a idea and we then created it. If you have a great idea please contact us at artist@brooklyngear.com

New Brooklyn Gear 8 String Guitar


Hi

We are excited about the release of the new Brooklyn Gear 8 string electric guitar. We are using the same boutique factory that makes our Ken Smith Designed Basses .

This is the first of many Brooklyn Gear Guitars. Please note our distinctive headstock. One night after having dinner at Grimaldis (Awesome Pizza)with one of our artist endorsees we all decided to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. During the dinner we were discussing the new guitar line and design ideas for our new headstock. Then like a scene in a movie we were in the middle of the span we looked up at the bridge and there it was. It was like a eureka moment. So we got out some paper and started to sketch the headstock to have it look like the Brooklyn Bridge.

The 8 string electric guitar will come with Brooklyn Gear BG9 alloy strings, Tesla Pickups and some other cool stuff we are still finalizing with the factory.

Retail price will be US $1195

Ask your local dealer about the new Brooklyn Gear 8 String Guitar

Brooklyn Gear at Frankfurt Musik Messe 2007

Hey Crew

We are getting ready for our annual trip to Frankfurt to exhibit at Musik Messe . Every year we have a great time seeing our old friends and meeting new ones. It is a completely different vibe than the NAMM show. You have a chance to really sit down with your friend, pour a drink and discuss the future.

Brooklyn Gear is in the same location as last year. Hall 4.0 B.53
