Frequently Asked Questions

The shells are not pre-damped; the thinner maple construction lends itself to a more open sound, so dampening is a matter of personal preference.
The Mars Maple delivers a warmer, more focused tone than birch kits at this price point, with a touch more sustain and a more vintage feel.
The included hardware is functional for occasional use, but serious gigging would benefit from sturdier, more reliable stands and a heavier-duty kick drum pedal.
