Frequently Asked Questions

The walnut adds a touch of warmth and a slightly drier character to the maple’s inherent resonance, providing more focused attack and sustain.
The SONIClear bearing edges are designed for versatility, accommodating a wide range of drumhead types, but some fine-tuning may be needed for optimal results.
The finish is quite durable but, being high-gloss, it will show stick marks and fingerprints more readily than matte finishes – regular cleaning is recommended.
