OUR STORY

Entity drums started in Melbourne, Australia. In 2016 Salvador Morales (Entity's founder) began making block snare drums as a curiosity after a career in fine woodworking.

He fell in love with the wonderful tonalities produced by the stunning Australian and traditional timbers. Working closely with many talented musicians, he was able to improve and refine his skills. Shortly after the first prototypes were made the drums began to selling and the first chapter of Entity had begun.

Some early appearances include:

DRUMEO: Canadian international online music education platform.

Orlando Drummer (Adam Tuminaro): Signature Entity "OD" 5 x 12" snare.  

Aaron Edgar: 8 x 13" custom snare.

Violent Femmes: Played a custom snare during their Australian Tour!! 

In 2022 Salvador decided to take a break from crafting drums to pursue a career in Visual arts, immersing himself in a lifestyle of full time artistry.

In 2025 Salvador received an email from Michael "Tony" Santoni - full time California session drummer, educator, custom drum practice pad innovator, and drum repair technician.

"Hey Salvador, I am purchasing one of your kits on the second hand market. I have a few questions and was wondering if you would be willing to make a couple of custom snares to match it?"

After many phone calls Michael and Salvador became great friends. Discovering their skillsets and experience would perfectly compliment one another if Entity were to return to business.

A few months past and the snare drums made by Salvador in Australia are now assembled and shipped in the US by Michael (Entity's new representative).

Entity is back with first class service and an extremely versatile, unique range of boutique instruments!

Salvador and Michael look forward to welcoming all of our new-coming artists to the Entity family.
