Listen to samples here
Built specifically for the studio, this 5 piece kit is entirely handcrafted from select tonal blackwood.
Each drum, including the bass drum, has reinforcement rings sculpted into the shell.
This feature not only adds focus, warmth and depth across the entire drum set, but eliminates the need for external dampening.
This also allows us to lathe the shells to the optimum thickness for maximum volume and tone.
As a result, shell thickness is varied across the kit for a perfectly balanced ensemble.
We have kept our unique steam bent hoops sitting low on the skin for smoother access to the playing surface and a more efficient playing motion (kits are also available with triple flange or diecast steel hoops).
The shells are free of mounting blocks.
Exposed tension rods kept long for rapid drum head change.
From choice of timber to construction and parts, FHD session kits offer a superlative recording instrument suitable for all styles of music.
