Drum Set Rug Mat (78" x 63"), Tightly Woven Durable Carpet Fabric for Spurs and Stands — Rubber Lined — Designed by Aric Improta

At 6.5ft (200 cm) wide x 5.25ft (160 cm) deep, the Meinl Drum Rug accommodates any number of full-size kit arrangements plus your throne to keep you centered and ready to play. This rug features artwork by Meinl Cymbals artist, Aric Improta. Called “Mandala”, this piece is completely designed by hand. “I love starting from the center and working my way out. It’s quite similar to building a song or solo in the sense that they are both inspired by one initial idea, then you do your best to add one layer at a time until it feels complete. The balance of trying to make everything symmetrical while dealing with the inevitable human error of illustrating by hand feels very similar to drumming, especially in our attempts to keep perfect time while simultaneously maintaining an organic, human feel.” — Aric Improta. Like an emergency brake for hardware, the top of the rug is made with a super durable and densely spun fabric that your stands can grip onto and your spurs can dig down into. Rolling the rug out, you'll notice its thick rubber underside. This creates a non-slip grip on virtually any type of floor material while protecting sensitive surfaces from your hardware spurs. The Meinl Drum Rug is equipped with a hook-and-loop strap to keep it neatly rolled up in the back of your vehicle. Includes travel bag.

• GLUE FOR DRUM SETS: the Meinl Drum Rug anchors heavy duty stands, pedals, and spurs without tearing apart like a house rug would do under the pressure of a drum kit
• WHY IT MATTERS: it's a major distraction when your kit slides away from you while playing; this rug does the job of any bulky weighted stopper, and it's more durable than any thrift store rug
• HOW IT WORKS: the low pile, thick, densely woven fabric lets pointed metal spurs dig in and plant themselves; it also provides friction for stands with rubber feet and lays flat so your kit is 100% stable
• ART BY ARIC IMPROTA: features artwork by Meinl Cymbals artist, Aric Improta, called “Mandala”; it was designed by hand and captures his idea of building a song or solo on the drums, one layer at a time, until it feels complete
• ONE BIG THING: the underside is lined with durable, no-slip rubber; this protects sensitive flooring like hardwood by preventing spurs from puncturing through the rug, plus, it grips any surface you put the rug on
• OF NOTE: comes with a hook-and-loop strap that wraps around the rug after you roll it up; this keeps the rug neatly rolled for easy storage
• BY THE NUMBERS: 78" L (6.5') x 63" W (5.25'); plenty of room for a full kit with hardware and drum throne
• THE BOTTOM LINE: keep your kit positioned exactly the way you want it with a classy looking rug that's generously sized and withstands the onslaught of drum hardware
