Frequently Asked Questions
The SmartMount minimizes hardware interference, allowing more of the shell’s natural resonance to be heard – it’s more balanced and less ‘boxy’ than a traditional mounting system.
While durable, the high-gloss lacquer can be susceptible to minor chips with heavy use; careful handling and regular polishing are recommended to maintain the finish.
It's better suited for genres that benefit from a warmer tone like jazz, funk, or classic rock, although it can be tuned higher for rock – just be aware it won’t have the aggressive attack of a deeper tom.
