30-04-2012: Carrera GET SNARE'd Do-It-Yourself Drum is Introduced
How about a do-it-yourself snare drum kit where you customize the look and sound by fitting your own choice of hardware and applying your own colour of finish? With GET SNARE'd you can do that.

Available in 14" x 5" or 14" x 6.5" rock maple shells handcrafted by the Carrera team in London, GET SNARE'd offers the opportunity for drummers to create that drum of their dreams

28-03-2012: Carrera Customers in China, India, Australia: New Shipping Options If ordering from China, India or Australia, select ‘Pickup From Store’ as your shipping option and we will get you the best possible shipping options and quotes (depending on your delivery needs) from our new agent. Once you select an option you will be invoiced, after which your order is processed.

Ordering raw shells for your own drum creations? Cut shipping costs by requesting we ‘Russian Doll’ them inside the largest shell. This is only possible when feasible – a number of 12” shells will not fit inside each other, but, for example, a 10”, 12”, 13”, 16” and 22” (differing sizes) will. The cost of shipping 1 x 24" x 20" bass shell is the same as it is to completely fill the air space inside that carton with shells! So, multiple shells in a pack cuts the individual shipping cost of each shell.

There is no change for orders to Europe or the USA (North America).
