Just curious......
Lots of drum companies popping up these days and these are in my neck of the woods.
Do they have a website Sean?
Yeah, they're super nice!
Their site is http://caseydrums.com/ its not complete yet though, so your best bet is to search Casey Drums on facebook.

Ayotte's are fantastic. By far my favorite kit I've ever put my hands on. I was working in Rattle and Drumfor work experience and had to put together a 6 pc (no snare) kit in natural maple finish from the box. It was horrible. I kept thinking I was at home putting together my new kit. They're still selling the kit in the store for £2000 sterling because there is a slight scratch on the bass drum from the shipment which is barely noticeable. I hate being 15 without extremely rich parents!

Nice looking drums. Are you a touring drummer, and if so can this company support you on the road? Will you have kits waiting for you in the cities you will visit? (Something that is vital)

I rarely tour, and when I do, I use the same kit for the whole tour. I don't really like idea of a different kit in every city, I feel like I would need more time to get used to each kit, even if they were the same specs.
Plus, my gigs aren't quite on that scale where I would be flying out to different cities for large one-off gigs

I don't think that is that vital. Even the biggest companies can only swing this stuff for the biggest artists, and even then probably only if it's something like a t.v. appearance or a huge gig. Especially if it's a custom company they are not going to have a bunch of kits waiting around to be sent out for gigs for nothing more than the exposure.
I will say this though alot of the smaller custom builders do have really great service and help their artists out. I know C&C customs sent a kit out to one of their artists when their bands trailer got stolen and they lost all their gear, I don't remember what band though...
I end up playing on rented kits a few times a year, and you take what you get. Most of the time if your in a big city like l.a., n.y., nashville, etc. you get really good gear. Even in houston I get really nice kits, but most of the time you get whatever brand they have. 90% of the time it is either a dw or a yamaha custom kit.
