The shell construction is made of mahogany and poplar 5-ply with maple reinforcement. For rockers, the sound is generated by a "surface" rather than a "point" like the classic rock sounds, giving them the feel of hitting the drumhead with a stick. The combination of the snare and bass drum sounds crisp, and each hit feels visually clear, bringing back a nostalgic feeling. The sound character is not like a modern drum developed for a sound that integrates impact and sustain for a clear, high-pitched sound, but rather a structure that allows the impact of the drumhead to resonate within the drum body. This drum gives the drummer a sense of control over the beat, creating a comfortable groove. *Bolt Tight is standard equipment, but you can remove it if you prefer to enjoy a more vintage sound that is closer to the original.
