The last time I had any contact with Dixon drums was at the last NAMM show I attended - early 2000s???? It's been quite a while. Anyway, I ran across a link to their web site and decided to see what they have on offer now, and I'm rather impressed. Seems they've gone to lengths to introduce a few North American Rock Maple shell packs, and a few hybrids, as well. They have an interesting universal tom-suspension mount that incorporates fixtures for attaching microphone mounts, music racks, Iphones, etc..
But what caught my attention was the sound and recording quality of their video showcasing their Artisan kit. I don't know how much studio magic was involved here, but the sound of those toms is amazing:
Curious if any of you play a newer model Dixon kit and what you think of them. I think they certainly need to work on their logo and drum badges - the current one is nondescript and rather meaningless. It's not ugly, it just doesn't say anything. Come on, boys!
