Handcrafted Maple Shell For Superior Tone

The shell is fitted with a six-ply reinforcement hoop for added strength and rigidity, enabling the drum to hold tension and produce a clear, resonant tone. The satin oil finish protects the shell while allowing it to breathe freely for an open, natural tone.
