The Best Drum DW Has Made
The sustain and projection of maple, married with the warmer quality of mahogany is fast becoming a favorite with studio and touring artists alike. This versatile wood combo comprised of mostly maple, with a mahogany inner and outer ply, is excellent for a wide variety of musical applications. No reinforcing rings let the maple and mahogany really project. Finished in quilted maple with a black candy burst gloss lacquer, this drum looks as good as it sounds.
