Frequently Asked Questions

Poplar offers a warmer, more controlled tone than maple, lacking some of maple's higher-end projection, but providing a pleasing, focused sound suitable for a wide range of genres.
The B8 bronze cymbals are fine for practice and recording, but serious live players will likely want to upgrade to higher-quality bronze or alloy cymbals for greater volume and sustain.
The DTH 2000s are quite stable and offer a good range of angles and positions; they’re far more versatile than basic tom mounts, allowing for customized drum tuning and placement.
