Reviews and Testimonials

I loved [WTS], it sounds great, super responsive to all sorts of dynamics and really friendly tuning, it was a pleasure to play that kit. [Played at Relix Studio in NYC.]

I had an awesome time playing [WTS at the Relix Studio]. I thought it sounded fantastic. Honestly my favorite part about it is we just rolled in, we were coming from New England, I sat down and I literally turned the key on the tom like twice and was like ‘oh nice that’s the pitch I want.’ It really made life a lot easier for quick turnovers and stuff like that so I really dug it a lot.

It was the first time I’ve ever used [Welch Tuning System] and the thing that stood out the most was how easy it was able to make a foreign drumset feel so comfortable so quickly. I’m so used to showing up to a venue and playing a backline kit and getting a set of sounds that I can work with but don’t necessarily feel comfortable about because it takes so much time to get the right tunings out of the drums, having the Welch Tuning System was just so easy and convenient it cut out so much of the time and allowed me to feel comfortable and ready to play a gig as soon as possible.

I recently had the chance to check out the Welch tuning system drums while performing a live session for Relix Studio. This innovative kit is a complete game changer when it comes to tuning your kit on the fly. The ability to tune drums so quickly with the Welch tuning system would be great in both the studio and for live performances!

I thought it sounded amazing. It was so easy to get my toms to the tone I wanted. It was really easy to marry them. Super comfortable and easy to play. Sometimes new kits are hard, this one felt like home pretty quick.

Tried WTS at NAMM 2019! Loved the drums, the concept, the family! These are THE best drums I have ever tried! That's why I'm playing them......nothing else.

Really nice to be able to change tuning between songs with ease and minimal effort. Drums sounded warm in any range. Absolutely fantastic.

I really did enjoy using the house WTS kit! I have become accustomed to adjusting head tensions of house backline kits to fit the required/desired sound for any given musical performance situation - and although I enjoy the art of tuning heads the old fashioned way - it can take up precious pre-show stage time that could’ve been used to rehearse or relax during the tour grind we all know and love. WTS makes it quite simple and easy to target and test (and repeat) until you’ve reached a perfect tension and sound for each drum. Definitely a time saver for pre-show tuning - while also opening up the opportunity for quick changes in tuning mid performance (specifically the snare!) Love the tone! Love the tuning system! Thanks to WTS for the rad drums!

Cool innovative method. Very cool to be able to tune so easily. You could almost completely customize your drumset between songs.

What a treat to play the WTS kit at our Relix Studio Livestream session! The innovative one-point tuning system made my prep for the show a breeze and the drum tones themselves were clear and buttery at every pitch I explored. Plus this kit just looks really cool. I might just have stumbled on my next dream kit!

WTS is the Tesla of the drum industry. WTS drums are the true realization of innovation. I have always desired an instrument that allowed me to achieve self contained perfection in tuning, effortless flexibility and top notch craftsmanship. WTS has been all of that and more. My productivity and the sound quality that my drums yield have gone through the roof both in the studio and on stage. They are also one heck of a conversation starter with sound engineers and other musicians because the design is so understated and elegant yet so incredibly effective and easy to operate. WTS drums have become an extension of my creativity.

When I first sat behind a set of Welch Tuning Systems I was immediately impressed by the clever pulley-like design holding the tension on the heads. When it came time to tune the drums I instinctively went to grab my drum key then laughed, remembering the single source tuning system and was pleased with the tones 45 seconds later.
