Brow Fry custom made bass
drum carriers are built by Brian Fry - a bass drummer
himself - for pipe band bass drummers. Brow Fry carriers
are robust and light weight and have quickly secured a
reputation amongst some of the world's top bass drummers
as being top for comfort.
Brow Fry Carriers have a variety of finishes:
Standard brushed aluminium
Black with silver flake
Silver with silver flake
Black with gold flake
Carriers come supplied with a Highland Gear bass drum
pad, which helps balance the instrument and minimise
body contact with the drum's shell.
Carriers ordered direct from Brow Fry can be built to
suit the size of the player, making the Brow Fry carrier
one of the few custom available on the market. Please

"I
love my Brow Fry carrier. The design is super light
weight, the nylon straps hold their shape, the
weight of the drum gets spread evenly across my
upper back and the single hook allows my drum to
move laterally without twisting my back. The drum
shell is well isolated from the harness so I get the
maximum sound from the instrument. I can play
completely relaxed and with less fatigue; and I can
focus only on playing."
"In the two years I have been using a Brow
Fry harness, I
have never once had any back discomfort even after playing in 10 km. parades. It is very well constructed, easy to adjust, extremely light and
not the least bit cumbersome even when wearing it under
my tunic. I have been playing bass for 40 years and I
have to say this is the best harness I have used."
"Brow's harness is one of the most comfortable bass drum
carriers I've used. The design allows me to put the
drum precisely where I want it and have it stay
there. Getting the drum up where I like it and precisely
in line with where the arms naturally fall is why I
chose this harness."
