  • Use this simple instrument and your imagination to make all sorts of special effects sounds
  • When you manipulate the drum, vibrations in the attached wire spring travel freely through the drum head and are then amplified in the hollow tube
  • As the drum head vibrates, air inside the drum also vibrates and begins to resonate, gradually increasing in volume until it reaches a thunderous crescendo before slowly fading away
  • Slide a drum stick up and down the flexible wire spring, cup your hand over the open end while you play, or slap it for a nice striking sound
  • The drum measures 10" long and is 3 1/2" in diameter and features a colorful, hand-painted storm cloud and lightning bolt


The name says it all. We call this unusual special effects instrument the Thunder Drum, but you'll call it amazing. Also known as a Spring Drum, it's taking the percussion world by storm! This hand-held drum produces a loud, thundering tone as you roll it, shake it or twitch the spring. Much like the angry peals of thunder occurring in nature, the impressive sound this drum creates continues to rumble on even after you stop shaking the drum.

It does make a great thunder sound. Volume can be controlled by the tension put on the spring. Well made.

I am a musician, and have been getting my non-musical (but wishes he was) husband drums for every gift giving holiday so he can join in the fun. This drum is fun, and this drum is LOUD. It definitely sounds like a thunderstorm, especially paired with a rain stick. One thing to be aware of is that it has scared some little kids a bit because of the volume.Also, I wouldn't let little kids play with it as they will want to grab it by the metal coil and run around the house screaming like a loon, whipping it around their heads almost breaking every piece of glass your Grandma brought back from Greece until you threaten to take their blankie away. Hypothetically speaking, of course.
