Frequently Asked Questions

The Silver Sealer tends to brighten the tone slightly and enhances sustain, creating a more focused and resonant sound.
Absolutely, the balanced tone makes it very recordable; a combination of overheads and close mics on the kick and toms would capture its character well.
The 30° edge allows for a thicker head gasket, resulting in a more focused and controlled low-end response compared to sharper edges.
