Historical Context and Positioning Within the Range
The stamped triple flange hoop is a classic in drum hardware, appreciated for its balance between lightness, natural response, and ease of tuning. Here, the S-Style variant with a specific flange orientation provides a more "controlled" feel to the touch while maintaining the open character of stamped hoops.
Who This Drum/Hoop Is For
This hoop is aimed at beginner, intermediate, and advanced drummers who want to replace a worn, warped, oxidized hoop or harmonize the aesthetic of a kit. It is particularly suitable for styles that seek projection and breathability on the bass drum: rock, pop, funk, gospel, fusion, as well as for lower tunings that benefit from generous sustain.
Features and Innovations
Made from stamped steel, this Triple Flange 2.3mm hoop offers stable tension and smooth head vibration, with tuning generally more forgiving than a cast hoop. The S-Style design (top flange oriented towards the inside of the shell) can contribute to a more precise rimshot feel and a more controlled response on unwanted overtones, while maintaining an "open" sonic signature.
Sound Characteristics
A triple flange hoop is known for preserving an open sound : the attack remains clear, the note breathes, and the shell expresses itself easily. On an 18-inch bass drum, this often translates to a fuller low end and a more singing tone.
Thanks to its stamped steel construction and 2.3mm thickness, this model promotes long sustain : the resonance naturally extends, highlighting round and deep tunings while maintaining good definition in the mix.
