{"product_id":"cvl-drums-shells-fut-frene-5-4mm-14-x3-256524","title":"ASH SHELL 5.4MM 14\"X3\"","description":"\u003ch3\u003eHistorical Context and Positioning Within the Range\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis CVL shell fits into a \"custom\" and quality manufacturing approach, designed for drummers and builders who want to create a snare drum that reflects their identity. The brand highlights an exclusive manufacturing process aimed at reducing the amount of glue compared to more traditional methods, to best preserve the natural response of the wood. The manufacturing process and shells are certified ISO 9001, positioning this shell as a serious foundation for a reliable and durable build.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho This Drum\/Shell Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003e14-inch shell\u003c\/strong\u003e is primarily intended for DIY drummers, technicians, workshops, luthiers, and drum-building enthusiasts who want to control every detail of their instrument: choice of lugs, trigger, butt plate, hoops, tension rods, type of snare wire, and vent placement. In terms of styles, olive wood provides a sonic identity well suited to characterful snares for rock, funk, pop, and contemporary music, while remaining relevant for more open and sensitive tunings depending on the hardware and heads chosen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and New Aspects\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis shell is delivered \u003cstrong\u003eunpierced\u003c\/strong\u003e: holes for lugs, trigger, butt plate, and relief vent must be made during assembly. For guidance on placement, it is indicated that you can use a Sparedrum \u003cstrong\u003eLO16\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003eLO26\u003c\/strong\u003e template. To achieve clean drilling, the use of \"hardwood\" drill bits is recommended, and it is essential to \u003cstrong\u003emeasure and verify\u003c\/strong\u003e the required diameters for your hardware before drilling. This configuration offers complete freedom regarding hardware compatibility and final ergonomics (trigger position, lug spacing, number of lugs, etc.).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound Characteristics\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOlive wood is generally dense, resulting in a crisp response and a rich grain. On a snare drum, an olive shell tends to offer a \u003cstrong\u003eprecise attack\u003c\/strong\u003e and good clarity, with a strong presence in the mix, particularly appreciated for rimshots and ghost notes when carefully selecting heads and snare wires.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith its \u003cstrong\u003e6 plies\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \u003cstrong\u003e5.4 mm thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e, this shell aims for an effective compromise: enough finesse to retain resonance and dynamics, while maintaining a stable structure for varied tunings. The \u003cstrong\u003e45-degree internal bevels\u003c\/strong\u003e contribute to a clean seating of the head on the shell edge, promoting precision, sensitivity, and good definition, while allowing for sustain depending on tension and head type. As always in a custom project, the final character will strongly depend on the edges, hoops, heads, snare wires, and hardware chosen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:7;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlies\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e6x olive\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePreparation advice\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003emeasure and verify drilling diameters required by your hardware before drilling\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:8;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e5.4 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExclusive CVL manufacturing process\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003euse of less glue than so-called \u0026quot;traditional\u0026quot;
