Hey Dennis, thanks for the props. Been checking out your stuff too, really nice, & delivered with thought & flair. Love the Dragon snares, & the funky DMX kit is very cool indeed. We've got some very exciting stuff in the pipeline too! Good luck with everything mateI want to see more Guru and Bellweather stuff! You guys are nuts...that stuff is amazing.
I agree too. Why should the acoustic guitars get all the abalone?Yep!..would have to agree!..tha's a sweet drum you got there!
The colour is absolutely stunning! Quite rounded edges I see - nice, makes the best out of the shell tone. How thick is that stave shell? Looks quite thin, not much more than 1/4"? Lovely looking drum, & I really like your signature treatment of the Trick strainer.Here's the latest one from Bellwether! It's a 14X6.5 made out of bolivian rosewood it has maple and zebrawood re-rings and a modified and polished Trick strainer with zircote cap and knob for the strainer. This is easily the most sensitive snare drum that I have ever made.

What's 1/16th of an inch between friendsThank you! Yes this wood is absolutely gorgeous. I agree with you on the edges, the round over really brings out natural the woody tone of the shell. You are very close on the thickness. It is actually 5/16" thick.
