ABOUT THE BRAND

Varus Drums is a high-end custom drum company founded in 2013 by Thomas Mantovani. Originally from Italy, the founder moved the main production workshop to Valencia, Spain. The brand is known for its "boutique" philosophy, where every drum is handcrafted with a focus on unique aesthetics and professional sound.

The name "Varus" is inspired by ancient military history. The brand’s identity combines Italian elegance, often influenced by the design of Italian sports cars, with modern craftsmanship. Each kit is a unique project made from selected woods with specialized finishes, such as custom paints and high-quality lacquers.

Since 2015, the company has grown significantly across the European market. Technically, the drums are recognized for their resonance and stability, using specific hardware like "S-Hoops" to enhance performance. While the main activity is now in Spain, the brand maintains its Italian roots through its original design philosophy. Varus Drums continues to serve professional drummers who seek a tailor-made instrument that stands out both visually and sonically.
