Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
Made in Italy, this CVL shell reflects an approach focused on manufacturing quality and industrial consistency, with an ISO 9001 certified process. The brand highlights an exclusive method using less glue than so-called traditional methods, to preserve a more natural and responsive shell sound, while pursuing sustainable development goals and controlling wood supply sources.
Who This Drum/Shell Is For
This 10-inch shell is aimed at intermediate to expert drummers and drum makers, as well as demanding DIY workshops and projects. Perfect for a compact tom oriented towards pop, funk, fusion, or modern rock, it is also well suited for studio setups where precision, definition, and a great dynamic response are sought.
Features and Innovations
The shell is delivered unpierced: holes for lugs, trigger, butt plate, and vent must be drilled. For a clean assembly, the use of a Sparedrum LO16 or LO26 drilling template is recommended, along with "hardwood" drill bits. Take the time to measure and verify the diameters required by your hardware before drilling to ensure reliable alignment and a neat finish.
Sound
Olive is a dense wood with a pronounced grain, often appreciated for its clear attack and quick response. With a thickness of 5.4 mm over 6 plies, the shell maintains resonance while providing a sense of control: ideal for clear notes, controlled sustain, and effective projection on a 10-inch tom.
