As it's a lovely day, & I'm building in the shop, I thought I'd just take a couple of photo's of the pre production prototype toms we'll be videoing on the 9th. All 10" diameter, but 6", 8.5", & 11.5" deep respectively. All steam bent English ash In-Tense series shells, same edges, heads, hoops, etc.
Haven't worked out the video plan yet. Don't even know if we'll use all three, but if we do, I'll see if we have time to do a same tuning / different depth comparison. These toms are part of a batch used to establish ideal depth/thickness/edges for the production In-Tense series to be released at the Manchester Drum Show June 8th. I was hoping to have the production pieces available for the video, but as they're not completely ready, we'll use the prototype ones instead. They're identical to the production pieces, just not finished quite as nicely, & without a few production features such as memory locks on spurs & floor tom legs.
Anyhow, something different to look at on a Sunday
