Frequently Asked Questions

It offers a similar tonal character to other maple kits, but often at a more accessible price point – the construction and hardware are slightly less refined than some higher-end options.
The Ambassador heads are fine for practice, but to get the best recorded sound, upgrading to coated heads for the toms and a better kick drum head is recommended.
The satin finish is beautiful, but it's not as forgiving as a gloss finish – careful handling and occasional cleaning will keep it looking its best.
