So how do these look IRL in your opinion? The way these drums are photographed really varies from what I've seeen online...I like blue drums, so I bought these in November 2017. Peace and goodwill.View attachment 101748
That's an interesting point - has anyone actually carried out testing on this?I believe the finish has an impact on resonance of the shell itself and some resonate better than others. I prefer an oil/matte finishes opposed to gloss/lacquer. Wraps have their own sound. Some finishes look great in the day light but not so good in other lightings.
Jammin Sam says it has no impact. But he's in business of selling wrap.That's an interesting point - has anyone actually carried out testing on this?
I would have thought the effect of wraps on the overall sound of the drum would be negligible...
Ahh the Capri Pearl, was just looking at the Slingy finishes from early on. The 3 sparkled diamonds were a nice option or touch to have as well, and the abalone pearl is a beautiful finish, would be a sight to behold.

Cool. Burl ash. Really gorgeous. Very different from regular ashThat is Burl Ash - I had a Yamaha Pahax kit with that veneer and a turquoise burst over the veneer with gloss lacquer (see attachment). Great looking kit but very heavy shells to lug around
?I know I already posted a pic of some of these earlier in the thread, but when everyone’s together for a family portrait, it sure does make for a striking pic. I find myself staring at these a bit too much. Am I a creeper if they’re inanimate objects?Lower lighting deepens the hue of the Real Wood finish. Yummy...
