Our Story

The idea for Peck Custom Designs was originally founded in Aiken, South Carolina by Kyle Price (The United States Army Band, “Pershing’s Own”) and his father Daniel Peck, a carpenter by trade. The business now has shops running in both its hometown and Washington DC, continuing to create batons and musical instrument accessories with new materials and ideas daily. PCD was built on the idea that musicians should be able to have an instrument that is as unique to them as the music they create with it.

We practice with our music-makers for countless hours, and it seems only appropriate that the instruments and batons we have formed such a close relationship with should have a personality you can choose that makes it your own. In addition to being unique, each of our products undergoes a thorough reviewing process to make sure that they are more ergonomic and comfortable than many options available today.
