Comments:

European drum companies, like their American counterparts, scrambled during the 60's to grab as much of the market as possible.

Trixon, a German company, offered wild finishes and oblong drum sizes to grab attention. The Telstar model had a bass drum that decreased in diameter from the batter size to the front head.

The pictured Luxus model was the conventional standard set that was offered by the company. Buddy Rich played Trixon for a very short time in the middle 60's. Lionel Hampton and Kenny Clarke also endorsed the line. Two well known British players also were pictured playing Trixon, the jazz great Phil Seaman and the British session player Clem Cattini.
