We offer instruments in a few different Series. We lead the industry in offering custom chrome finishes on pans. Whether you’re looking for a two-tone chrome finish, or some really personalized etching on the skirt of the pan, you are in the right place!

Student Series Pans are affordable, no-frills pans for the beginner. They are built on traditional barrels in-house by interns/apprentices, or imported from Trinidad. They are all given an Economy Paint finish before being shipped out.

Heritage Series Pans are built in-house at our factory in Akron, to very exacting specifications. They make great pans for bands, students, and professionals alike. They are made from traditional sized barrels (23 inches in diameter). Effective late 2018, all Heritage Series pans will be made on Solid Hoop technology.

Performance Series Pans are made on Solid Hoop 24.5″ diameter barrels, which allows significant space between all the notes. This results in pans that are crisp and clear in their response. These are widely used by professional players. The Performance Series Lead Pan is our most popular instrument.

Precision Series Pans are made on Solid Hoop 26″ diameter barrels. These instruments are unsurpassed in stability, clarity and resonance, and are the choice of professional players who depend on their instrument to make their living.

Used/Reconditioned Pans are sometimes available. Check back often, you never know what you might find!
