Frequently Asked Questions

The Silver Sealer adds a layer of reflectivity, resulting in a slightly more focused and controlled sound, particularly in the lower frequencies, preventing excessive boominess.
The included single tom holder is a starting point; serious gigging will likely require additional holders for a more expansive configuration.
The 30° bearing edge promotes a more focused and resonant tone, enhancing projection and providing a more vintage feel compared to a sharper edge.
