What is your Customer Satisfaction Policy? |
| General Comments
about Hand Made Instruments ? A hand made Steel Drum from
Trinidad is just that, made by hand. The 35-40 hour process has
changed little in nearly 50 years. It is the very idea of
?Classic Steel Drums? that keeps us selling pans for our
craftsmen. These are the real thing from the real guys! Small
dents and some tool marking here and there are to be expected and
are a result of the process. We cannot guarantee that your pan
will look like it came from a precision factory process. Our
promise is to assure that you receive a well tuned, nice looking
instrument that matches our minimum rating for the instrument you
purchase.

your handcrafted Steel Drum instrument from Hopetown Music. If
