Hayman drums was an English manufacturer of percussion instruments established in 1968.[1] The company was founded by Ivor Arbiter with the help of the John E. Dallas Company whom sought to compete with American drum manufacturers.[2] The company went defunct in 1975, although attempts to re-launch the brand have led to the drums being produced intermittently in small batches by Taiwanese manufacturers.[3]
