Jacks Drum Shop

America’s Oldest Drum Shop

Early in the 1940’s, probably around 1945, Jack Adams opened Jack’s Drum Shop in Boston, Massachusetts on Stuart Street. This time frame suggests that Jack’s Drum Shop is indeed the oldest ongoing drum store in the country.

Jack Adams daughter is Joan Vater of Vater percussion.

The Stuart Street store not only sold musical instruments but radios as well. During the 1960’s Mr. Adams relocated the store to Boylston Street directly across from the public garden.
