The Super 7 really is quite a special drum. The inner shell is handcrafted from sumptuous Purpleheart veneers with an outer finished in high-gloss lacquered Fiddleback Sycamore. The 13” x 7” size offers drummers a higher pitch without sacrificing the “body” of the drum’s tone. The inclusion of no less than four vents adds sensitivity and increases the volume - this is a loud drum!
