Acoustic drum kits are available in various configurations and woods. Drummers looking for a warm, woody sound often prefer shells made of maple or birch.

The choice of the number of drums is personal and will vary according to style being played. Our selection is constantly expanding and changing. It will continue to do so in order to satisfy the ever-evolving demands of the drummer.
