‘Midget’ / Cocktail Drum Kits
This page contains ‘Midget’ drums (drum kits dedicated to drumming kids) and Cocktail drum kits
(for gigs where place is limited).
‘Midget’ drums:
For a certain time Star produced drum kits for children as well. Being naturally under special treatment
by youngsters, it is obvious, that these small sized drums underwent not only rough playing, but also
other handling … making such drum kits hard to find nowadays, especially in good condition.
Cocktail drums:
This type of a drum kit is added here as well, as obviously there still exist only very few of them today.
