Drum N Base is a British brand that has become synonymous with one of drumming's most distinctive stage accessories — the Vintage Persian Stage Rug. Inspired by the iconic rugs seen beneath the kits of legendary drummers like John Bonham, Drum N Base has created a range of beautifully designed drum rugs that keep your kit firmly in place while making a bold visual statement on any stage.
Beyond their celebrated rugs, Drum N Base also produce practical drum accessories including the HP180 Bass Drum Hoop Protector and the Rim Groover Wooden Wedge — thoughtful solutions to real problems that gigging drummers face every night.

Both sizes are available in a range of colourways including Classic, Grey and Red/Black, with the smaller size also available in Blue, Green and Classic Worn.

About Drum N Base
Drum N Base was founded in the UK with a clear vision: to create drum rugs that drummers would actually be proud to have on stage. The standard black drum rug is a functional necessity, but Drum N Base recognised that it didn't have to be boring. Their Vintage Persian Stage Rug range draws on the rich tradition of Persian carpet design to create rugs that are as visually striking as they are practical — the kind of stage accessory that becomes part of a drummer's identity.
The Bonzo Drum Mat is perhaps their most celebrated product, directly referencing the iconic Persian rug that sat beneath John Bonham's kit during Led Zeppelin's legendary performances. For drummers who grew up listening to Bonham's thunderous playing, owning a piece of that aesthetic is a genuinely meaningful thing.
Beyond the rugs, Drum N Base's HP180 Bass Drum Hoop Protector addresses a common problem for gigging drummers — the wear and damage that bass drum hoops sustain from repeated contact with the floor and from transport. The Rim Groover Wooden Wedge is a simple but effective tool for achieving consistent cross-stick sounds by providing a stable, angled surface for the stick to rest against.
