The Drummer Boy is a 6-inch mini dab rig from Goody Glass, sold as a four-piece kit. The rig is a barrel-style recycler running a dual-sided hammerhead percolator with dual recycler uptakes, and the box includes a 10mm high-airflow quartz banger, a bubble carb cap and a mini dab tool.
That kit contents list is the reason to look at it. A rig on its own is not a setup — you still need a banger, a cap and a tool, and buying those separately is how a $60 rig becomes a $110 one.
How it hits
The hammerhead inline perc splits vapor across a row of slits, and the dual recycler uptakes pull the water back through the chamber continuously rather than letting it sit.
The practical effect of a recycler at this size is less drag. Small rigs tend to choke because there is not much room for air to move; running two uptakes instead of one is what keeps the pull open on a piece this short.
The glass is 10mm thick, which is heavy for a mini rig. At 6 inches tall that puts real mass low in the piece, so it sits planted on a table instead of skating when a hose or a cord catches it.

Who it suits
This is a first rig that does not need a second purchase, and it is a good small piece for anyone whose main rig is too big to leave out.
The 10mm joint is worth knowing about before you buy. It is the smallest of the three common sizes, which is what keeps the vapor path tight and the flavor concentrated on a mini rig, but it also means your 14mm bangers will not fit. The included banger covers you; a spare needs to be ordered in 10mm.
For the same kit format in a different function, the Miss Swiss runs a swiss-style body at 5.5 inches, and the Chief is another four-piece in the range. The MJ Arsenal Hydra is the comparison to make if you want a mini rig without the kit. For adults 21 and over.
