{"product_id":"cvl-drums-shells-fut-vintage-5-4mm-13-x14-233618","title":"VINTAGE SHELL 5.4MM 13\"X14\"","description":"\u003ch3\u003eHistorical Context and Positioning in the Range\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the \u003cstrong\u003eVintage\u003c\/strong\u003e series, CVL revives the sonic aesthetic of shells found on many drum kits from the 60s and 70s: a woody grain, a flexible response, and immediate musicality. This 13-inch shell fits within a \"classic\" approach to percussion craftsmanship, while benefiting from a modern manufacturing process developed by CVL, designed to preserve wood vibration and production consistency.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIntended Users for This Drum\/Instrument\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis shell is aimed at drummers, technicians, drum makers, and custom build enthusiasts who want to construct a 13-inch snare drum or tom with a vintage look and sound. It is especially suited for styles seeking roundness and body: classic rock, soul, rhythm and blues, funk, vintage pop, indie, roots jazz, studio work, and covers. Being \u003cstrong\u003eunpierced\u003c\/strong\u003e, it is better suited for users comfortable with measuring and hardware placement, or those working with a workshop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Innovations\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe key point of this CVL shell lies in its \u003cstrong\u003e5-ply construction\u003c\/strong\u003e combining African mahogany and white poplar, with a thickness of \u003cstrong\u003e5.4 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e: an interesting compromise between resonance and durability, typical of a \"vintage\" pursuit. The \u003cstrong\u003e45-degree inner bearing edges\u003c\/strong\u003e contribute to a solid seating of the drumhead on the inside while maintaining a responsive playing feel. Finally, the \u003cstrong\u003eexclusive manufacturing process\u003c\/strong\u003e announced by CVL, using less glue than so-called traditional methods, aims to let the wood express itself more fully, resulting in a more organic response and more natural projection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound Characteristics\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe combination of \u003cstrong\u003eAfrican mahogany\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003epoplar\u003c\/strong\u003e is a classic hallmark of \"old school\" drum signatures. Mahogany generally provides pronounced \u003cstrong\u003ewarmth\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003erich midrange\u003c\/strong\u003e, and a \"full\" note sensation that sits easily in a mix, especially in live and studio contexts. Poplar, often chosen for its musicality and flexible response, contributes to a \u003cstrong\u003erounder attack\u003c\/strong\u003e and balanced behavior, avoiding excessive harshness in the high frequencies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith its \u003cstrong\u003e5.4 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e thickness, this shell promotes \u003cstrong\u003egood resonance\u003c\/strong\u003e and expressive dynamics: it delivers a lively sound at both low and high intensities, with a sustain that remains musical without becoming overpowering. The \u003cstrong\u003e45-degree inner bearing edges\u003c\/strong\u003e help gain precision and definition in the attack, which is particularly appreciated on a \u003cstrong\u003e13-inch\u003c\/strong\u003e diameter when seeking an instrument that is both fast, articulate, and full of character.\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:6;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eVintage\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e5 years\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:7;--wb-lb:transparent;--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)\"\u003e2x African Mahogany - 1x White Poplar - 2x African Mahogany\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufactured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eItaly\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:3;--wb-r:8;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--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\u003eCommitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003esustainable development and respect for wood sourcing, with the goal of minimizing environmental impact through continuous process improvement\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:4;--wb-r:9;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e13 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOption\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003epossibility of special shells on request (choice of wood, plies, etc.)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:5;--wb-r:10;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBearing edges\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e45-degree inner\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Cvl Drums Shells","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54361014010131,"sku":"233618","price":226.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/fcf7db0d5a85f174c76b4f18cc8bba07c83e8894_CVL_VIN_54_14.jpg?v=1789166286","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/cvl-drums-shells-vintage-shell-5-4mm-13-x14-233618","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
