Hello.
I have a few questions about vintage drums.
I only own one kit, and it is a Maple CX series by DW,
but recently I realized that even with the right heads I
can't find the sound I want. So i decided that I wanted
I nice set of Vintage drums, similar in sound to
old jazz drummers like Rich and Kruppa. I wanted
something with low end punch..and so here goes...
1. Do Mahogany/poplar shells get the sound I want
generally speaking?
2. How much can I expect to pay for a 3 piece kit in
this wood consisting of a 24" kick, 13" rack, and 16" floor
(already have a few nice snares that do a good enough job, so
I just need toms, and kick)
3. I was also exploring the possibility of trying to buy
naked shells and wrapping them up myself, so is there
a good place to buy these shells online?
Btw, I'm 18, and I've been drumming for like...5-6 years,
so I have to admit I don't know a whole ton about drums
but I do know what sounds I like, so any help would be
extremely appreciated, thank you so much!
