Historical Context and Positioning Within the Range

This CVL shell follows a manufacturing philosophy focused on performance and customization: a high-quality base ready to receive your hardware and configuration. Made in Italy and produced under a ISO 9001 certified process, it features an exclusive CVL method designed to use less glue than traditional methods, aiming to achieve a more natural sound and better dynamic response. The Maple-Beech mix (MxBE) positions it among versatile shells, suitable for both studio and stage use, while remaining an excellent starting point for a custom drum or snare.

Who Is This Drum/Shell For?

This shell is primarily intended for demanding drummers, technicians, workshops, and DIY enthusiasts who want to build a custom snare or tom with hardware placement perfectly adapted to their playing style. Its character, both punchy and musical, suits intermediate to expert levels but remains accessible to motivated beginners supported by a workshop, as tuning is facilitated by the design and bevels. Style-wise, the Maple-Beech hybrid excels in rock, pop, funk, gospel, fusion, and contemporary music where attack, presence, and definition are sought without losing the warmth necessary for recording.
