Frequently Asked Questions
The 'Dry' designation means significantly less sustain and a more muted, focused sound – it's noticeably less washy and more immediate than a standard K Custom.
While it’s responsive, the paper-thin weight makes it best suited for players with a lighter touch; aggressive hitting could easily damage it.
This excels in genres needing tight, controlled accents; a brighter splash would be better for more traditional styles like funk or jazz where a longer sustain is desired.
