Murray Piper comments: “The reason I choose Mapex is because Mapex has been one of the top leading companies in our industry for a very long time. Mapex is a big supporter of percussion education and makes the best drums and hardware. Also, I was introduced to Mapex through my very good friend Dom Famularo who played Mapex drums for a very long time. This is the type of community and support I’m so excited to be a part of.”
