Five stars

Five stars, a couple of issues with deliveries but Sam and Rob are easy to deal with and the cymbals, drums and heads I’ve bought have all been good quality and in perfect condition. Issues were resolved without fuss and all in all I’m very happy.

Excellent retailer.

This was the first time I had used Footes, but it won’t be the last.
The item I wanted was on sale at a competitive price and the service was great.
The item arrived very quickly and was securely wrapped.
Their communication was also very good, I will definitely use them again, and will recommend them to anyone.

Awesome service from Sam

Awesome service from Sam. Sadly first drum arrived with a bit of damage due to a loose Allen key and NOT the fault of Footes. Explanation and assistance from Sam was outstanding and looking forward to getting the replacement and starting my online Darbuka lessons.

Great selection of products

Great selection of products, easy to order and fast delivery. I don't have access to a kit at present so Foote's selection of practice materials was ideal for keeping up my practice.
