About this item

  • Saves valuable stage space
  • Saves time at set-up / tear-down
  • Eliminate another boom stand
  • Achieve a clean, shock-mounted kick drum signal
  • No Drilling required for installation


Eliminate the boom stand from in front of your kick drum with The Kelly SHU Composite kick drum microphone shock mount. The patented rubber isolation cord system utilizes the kick drum's pre-existing hardware as attachment points, there's no drilling required for installation. Eliminate the trip hazard of using a boom stand and reclaim your limited stage space while providing your favorite kick drum microphone with the isolated platform needed to give you its best performance. The Kelly SHU Composite main mounting unit is injection molded from 30% fiberglass reinforced nylon resins and provides firm and reliable support for most any kick drum microphone which is designed to fit on a conventional microphone stand. The system can be installed internally within the drum or externally on the front of the drum with complete instructions provided for either usage. The Kelly SHU Composite will clean up the sound of your kick drum by isolating the microphone from unwanted mechanical interferences AND save set-up and tear-down times as the mic can stay with the drum during transport. The fully adjustable system comes with 8 interior leather support loops for internal installations, 3 ft. of solid rubber support cord and 16 easy-on/easy-off support cord hook sets. The Kelly SHU Composite carries a 1-year limited warranty on the main mounting unit and a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. Available only in Black.

This was my first time installing an internal mic for a bass drum. I had never heard of this brand or product before because I was never looking for it but, I must say it was fairly simple to install plus there are very detailed “how to” videos on YouTube for any visual learners such as myself.

I like it. It’s made setting up in ears faster, as I haven’t needed to deal with the kick mic stand and the kick sound is the same every time.My only complaint is I wish I could move it further from the front head without modding the bass drum. It’s as far back as it can go without going to the screws by the reso, which are too far from the front for the sound I want.

Instructions to mount were very good. It's quite easy to get it assembled. it took me about 20min to get it all done. They send enough elastic rubber band and hooks to make a very nice and solid mount.Mic sits in place without a problem and after few times carrying the bass drum for shows, not a sign of movement or getting loose. PERFECT!I really like that it places the mic at same spot all the time - makes sound check much easier and consistent.If you are on the road a lot with your band, get this! no more annoying mic stands in front of your bass drum! no more setup/tear down of bass drum mic. just connect the XLR cable to your snake and done!I wish I could have this for all my toms and floor toms.

I grew tired of having my expensive kick drum mic on a stand outside the kick drum. It gets kicked around and liquids spilled on it. I finally decided to give the Kelly Shu a try and I am completely 100% sold on it! Installation was easy. No drilling required. I have an AKG D112 and an XLR cable always attached to it. I then coil up the cable and place it in the breather hole for transport. When at a gig I simply reach in to the breather hole and uncoil the cable, plug into the board and done. I have the cable threaded between a tension rod and the drum shell so that it's positioned in a way where it doesn't touch the resonant head at all coming through the breather hole.Played a gig this weekend and the sound man had never heard of the Kelly Shu before. He was also not a fan of the AKG D112 I was using but said he'd give it a try. After the show we were on stage breaking down and he took a closer look at the Shu. He was impressed. Very impressed. He thought the design was amazing as is the overall concept. He also said as a result of the Kelly Shu, the mic was isolated inside the kick really well and that allowed him to get what he said was one of the punchiest and deepest kick drums sounds he's ever mixed.The Kelly Shu is a winner. You as the drummer will love it. Sound engineers will love it. The fans will love it. It also eliminates one more stand from your hardware bag and no more cleaning spilled beer off your microphone.

This thing is sweet! I hooked it up quickly, but it was intimidating at first...then once you learn how it attaches, you get a rhythm going and before you know it, it's all set up. It works great, I don't hear it affecting the kick drum sound. It keeps my mic in place where I like it. And I was able to ditch the outside boom stand (I had this crazy rig with a brick...yea weird)...gigging with it would be one less mic stand on stage to trip over.

Overall I think this is a Great Product . Eliminates the hassle of bringing a mic and mic stand to gigs . It does take a while to install . Down side is if you use a Beta 52 or D112 mic , the weight of the mic will make it point down and not straight at the batter head . I'm sure w/ a little tweaking on the lenght of your rubber cords that hold the shoe in place you could probably get it to stay up . I used a Audix D6 instead of the Beta 52 and had no problems . Unlike the May Mic System , you don't have to drill the Bassdrum Shell to mount the XLR cable . In case you decide to remove it , no extra holes . My front head is ported w/ a Kick Port . I had a 5' xlr cable attached to the mic and just ran the cable out of the Kick Port . I've sinced drilled a hole on the bottom on the front head and ran the xlr cable out of it . From a sound perpective its a little more boommie than having the mic at the port . I have DW 16x20 w/ DW pillow . Emad batter and Aquarian Resonator Ported Front Head w/ Kick Port . I know people who mic their kick all the time and stuff it w/ blankets , etc . If you fall into this category , you shouldn't have any trouble w/ the boommie sound. For the price , Buy It . You won't be dissapointed .
