Hi,
Here’s a new one to enter the Curotto Collection. The Craviotto Drum Company has once again partnered with Master Artisan drum builder Adrian Kirchler of AK Drums, Italy. This collaboration has resulted in a line of 20th anniversary snare drums and drum sets.
CRAVIOTTO AK 20th ANNIVERSARY 6.5 x 14 TRIPLE STACK BBC serial # 2016
Craviotto chose to number their 20th anniversary drums the same way Ludwig numbered their 100th Anniversary Gold Triumphal Models; 1909, 1910, 1911 etc. I chose serial #2016 for two reasons: 1. 2016 was the year Johnny Craviotto passed away. 2. The year 2016 also represents the decision to keep the legacy of The Craviotto Drum Company moving forward for many more decades. I have included a photo of the spec sheet for those of you that are interested.
The drum sounds great and not only do have the pleasure of playing the drum but I also have the pleasure of hearing the drum while my students play/record on this snare in my drum studio.
Enjoy!
Mike Curotto
