Frequently Asked Questions

It’s a substantial upgrade, prioritizing minimal contact and vibration dampening for a more open, resonant sound – a noticeable improvement over previous designs.
They are not pre-damped; the oil finish helps preserve the natural resonance of the maple, allowing for a very responsive and lively playing experience.
While the included Ambassador/Ambassador combo is excellent for a vintage tone, switching to a two-ply batter head on the toms and a Powerstroke 3 on the kick would provide more attack.
