Tamburo

Italian drums, built for tone above all.

Tamburo drum shells in natural wood and finished veneers

A workshop in Novara

Tamburo began in 1984 in a small workshop in Novara, Italy. Master drum builder Tullio Granatello built his first acoustic drum set that year, handcrafting every part himself. Proel later acquired the brand and carried his work forward.

Tone above all

Tamburo shells are built from precision-cut wooden staves and multi-layer wood. The signature compact lug, first made of wood and brass, remains a Tamburo hallmark. Every Tamburo drum is designed in Italy under a philosophy that honors tone above all else.

In our lineup

  • Dorothea Taylor Signature Snare: the artist snare created with drummer Dorothea Taylor.
  • 4GIG: a compact four-piece kit for players who gig small rooms and carry their own kit.

Tamburo is for drummers who want a distinctive voice and exacting quality.
