- Details
- This is a wonderful example of the new K Class Hybrid snare drums. The design of this series is based on that of drum designer Clifford Della-Porta who patented the design in 1975 (US Patent # 3,911,799). Most metal - wood hybrid drums suffer from being excessive in weight. I have found a way to reduce the overall weight of the drum by using strong but rigid metals such as stainless steel and titanium. This particular model uses stainless steel coupled with a MonoPly X Wenge core section. A great advantage to this design is that the drum sections will not separate when the heads are removed. The sound of this drum is very rich, warm and powerful.
