2112 Percussion

2112 Percussion is a drum shop on Capital Boulevard in Raleigh, billed as the state’s premier drum super store and the largest drum specialty shop in the Carolinas. The floor is stocked with drum sets, snares, cymbals and the hardware that holds all of it together.

The store buys, sells and trades, so used gear turns up next to new. Heads, cases, parts and accessories are all here, and the staff handle drums every day, which helps when you walk in unsure of what you need.
