<World Max> It was founded in 1991 by David and Susan Lo, who live in Taiwan. David worked as a product manager at Pearl Drums Taiwan for 18 years, but sadly passed away in 2000. His wife, Susan, took over his role as director, a position she holds to this day. Taiwan is a country that currently possesses the technical and production capabilities that are inseparable from drum manufacturers around the world. Making full use of the technology and experience it has cultivated over many years in Taiwan, World Max continues to bring low-priced, high-quality products to the world. The 1mm thick bronze shell softens the sharpness to a moderate degree, producing a sound that still has a sense of warmth within its sharpness. One of its attractive features is that the tubular lugs give the shell a more open sound. The 3mm thick die-cast hoop provides excellent sound transmission, making it suitable for a variety of genres including rock, metal, and pop. Size: 14x5 Shell: 1mm Beaded Bronze Clear Lacquer Hoop / Number of tensions: Die-cast hoop / 10 tensions Lug: Tubular lug *Case not included.
