Expertly crafted shells
Handcrafted to the highest degree of proficiency. Each of the 9 plies is hand marked, hand-cut and hand-sanded to achieve the perfect fit. There are no gaps. The mahogany and birch are cross-laminated to form an exceptionally strong, thin shell at only 5.5mm thin. Then finished with an inner mahogany veneer, making it both stunning inside and out.
Hand-cut, 30° roundover bearing edges bring out all of the warmest characteristics from the shell. Finalised with a sleek Kensington Crown finish and Art Deco inspired Palladium hardware, you have an original kit with classic vibes and deep tones that's unlike anything else out there.
Superior sound achieved through cold-press moulding
The British Drum Co. Lounge Series 22'' 3pc Shell Pack achieves its unique sound through its carefully considered design aspects. The shell is cold-pressed which means it is moulded without the use of heat. The lack of a heating process means you get the best possible sound from the drum, as its sonic qualities are not altered. This takes longer, but it's worth it for the far superior tone it provides.
Unique Palladium hardware
The British Drum Co. worked long and hard on the development of Palladium hardware. Inspired by the Art Deco period of art and design with its unique geometric patterns, both the sound and appearance were a careful consideration in its design. The chrome plated steel design ensures your snare drum is practical, sounds incredible and looks beautiful.
