Welcome to Quite Frankly Drums.

This website is an insight in to some of the wonderful drum items that I have been fortunate to own, research and detail.

My personal collection spans 100 years of unique vintage, ex name classics & modern specialist boutique drums and I am hugely grateful to be able to own such a rare and perhaps unique collection.

To own or have owned some legendary drum sets from the likes of Phil Collins, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Carter McLean, Chris Adler and others, is a huge honour and I am truly humbled.

If you would like to know further information about any of the items, please do drop me a line.

If you wish to use any images from my website, please contact me first. Thank you.

I have a long history of working in the music industry and have assisted many famous drummers over the last 40 years and if you have time, you can read about how the QUITE FRANKLY DRUMS COLLECTION came about on this LINK.

If you also perhaps have something that you think I might be interested in, I'd love to hear from you!

In closing, the site is dedicated with loving thanks to my late father, Frank Collins along with his father, Frank Collins senior, who between them, set me on my lifelong drumming path.

Thank you for visiting Quite Frankly Drums, I hope you enjoy your time here.
