Starter Step
Professional
Drum Shop Inc.
Your one stop shop for all percussion, sticks, cymbals, drums, books, hand percussion, parts and hardware.
The Professional Drum Shop was founded in 1959 by Bob Yeager with Chuck Molinari in an effort to provide the professional drummer with a place to get needed equipment repairs and shopping convenience.
A lot has changed in the 50 plus years we’ve been in operation but the shop has remained virtually the same. It’s equal parts drum and percussion dealership, repair center, drummers hang, and museum. This year, we’ve launched a new online storefront so everyone can experience shopping convenience from home.
Pro Drum is firmly committed to meeting the special needs of its customers. Everyone is treated alike here, no matter if you’re a top name drummer or just someone who plays for fun. We are still one family owned and believe in service, integrity, and quality.
Country General Store
Providing an authentic country western lifestyle experience for over 37 years, we have become the place to go in Southern California for western outfitting. Our store carries everything that you need to dress yourself from head to toe in western wear.
We are like family at the Country General Store thanks to our knowledgable employees, most of whom have been members of our staff for over 20 years.
Come on down and join our family today!
