Frequently Asked Questions
Ash offers a warmer, more controlled tone than maple, with less high-end crack. It’s a bit more ‘woody’ and might require a different head selection to achieve a brighter sound.
The 2.3mm triple-flanged hoops are a standard size, so you can use most modern drumheads without issue. Just be mindful of head tension when tuning.
Yes, the natural finish is more prone to showing scratches and marks than lacquered finishes. A coat of protective sealant can help mitigate this, but it will alter the appearance slightly.
