Percussion Plus bass drum

Percussion Plus is a well-known brand within the musical instrument industry, particularly recognized for providing accessible, entry-level drum kits and educational percussion instruments. The brand was originally established in the United Kingdom to cater to the student and institutional markets, focusing on durability and value for money.

While the brand has its roots in British design and distribution, the manufacturing of its hardware and acoustic drum shells, such as the bass drum shown in the image, is primarily carried out in China. This outsourcing strategy allows the brand to maintain competitive pricing for the educational sector. Today, the brand is owned and distributed by Frederick Hyde Ltd (formerly known as Bill Lewington Ltd), a major UK-based distributor of musical instruments and accessories that manages a portfolio of brands serving schools and orchestral musicians worldwide.
