{"product_id":"cvl-drums-shells-fut-padouk-5-4mm-14-x6-256502","title":"PADOUK SHELL 5.4MM 14\"X6\"","description":"\u003ch3\u003eHistorical Context and Positioning Within the Range\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCVL follows the Italian tradition of manufacturing shells and components for drum kits, with an approach focused on production precision and consistent quality. This Padouk shell is part of solutions designed for assemblers, workshops, luthiers, and demanding drummers who want to build a custom instrument without compromising on the acoustic foundation. Within the range, it is positioned as a premium \"project\" shell, combining a wood with a strong character, controlled construction, and a manufacturing philosophy centered on musicality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho This Drum\/Shell Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis shell is primarily intended for \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate to expert drummers\u003c\/strong\u003e, technicians, artisans, and anyone wishing to assemble a \u003cstrong\u003e14-inch snare drum\u003c\/strong\u003e that reflects their personal style. Since Padouk is a dynamic wood, it suits contexts where a clear and present snare is desired: rock, funk, pop, gospel, fusion, as well as contemporary music in the studio where attack and definition are essential. For beginners, it can be an excellent starting point if the goal is to build a durable instrument, provided they are comfortable with drilling and assembly steps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Innovations\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe key feature of this shell is its \u003cstrong\u003eunpierced format\u003c\/strong\u003e: the holes for lugs, trigger, butt plate, and vent remain to be made, allowing you to adapt the instrument to your specifications (type of trigger, spacing, number of tension rods, positioning). To guide you, you can use a \u003cstrong\u003eSparedrum\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eLO16\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003eLO26\u003c\/strong\u003e template to correctly place the future drillings. For a clean and chip-free result, it is recommended to use \u003cstrong\u003ehardwood drill bits\u003c\/strong\u003e and to \u003cstrong\u003emeasure and verify\u003c\/strong\u003e the required drilling diameters for your hardware before proceeding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCVL also highlights an \u003cstrong\u003eexclusive manufacturing process\u003c\/strong\u003e that uses less glue than traditional methods. The goal is to preserve more of the \"wood\" behavior, for a more organic response with freer shell vibration. All this is part of an \u003cstrong\u003eISO 9001-certified\u003c\/strong\u003e production framework, ensuring consistency and traceability of processes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound Characteristics\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePadouk\u003c\/strong\u003e is a wood known for its balance between \u003cstrong\u003eattack\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ewarmth\u003c\/strong\u003e. Its density promotes a clear response with a well-defined note contour: the stick \"speaks\" quickly, which improves the precision of ghost notes and the sharpness of rimshots. On a snare drum, this often translates into a feeling of control and presence, highly appreciated both live and in close-miking recording situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a \u003cstrong\u003e6-ply\u003c\/strong\u003e construction and contained thickness, the shell maintains good \u003cstrong\u003eresonance\u003c\/strong\u003e and natural projection without becoming overly rigid. Depending on the choice of heads, hoops, and snare wires, you can steer the sound towards more \"crack\" (stiffer hoops, higher tuning) or towards a rounder, fuller texture (lower tuning, thicker head). The internal \u003cstrong\u003e45-degree\u003c\/strong\u003e bearing edge contributes to a clean seating of the head, enhancing attack clarity and an immediate response sensation.\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)
