The drumitar has been in existence since 1985. It was invented and first made famous by Future Man playing with Bela Fleck and the Flecktones. The version he played used strings to trigger digital drum sounds. Various forms of the instrument have appeared and been used over the past 25 years but none has replaced the electronic drum set, triggered with pads played with sticks in much the same way a traditional acoustic drum set is played.

UNTIL NOW!

The new drumitar featuring a guitar shaped body and a four pad set up utilizing my TPF, or Thumb-Bass, Pointer-Snare, Fingers-Cymbal system is changing the way drums are played!
