The Edge format has been around for a long time, however, this for me is a great example of combining a top design with something special. The shell is a combination of 10 ply maple and heavy gauge brass bands which provide the bearing edges. The outer ply of bubinga is from a nearly 800 year old log which DW purchased a couple of years ago.
I picked this drum up about half an hour (at most) after collecting my Timeless Timber from the local Parcel Force depot following its arrival from Chicago. I had previously seen one of these drums with the rest of a Waterfall kit at Wembley Drum Centre. I'd asked if they'd sell me just the snare and they'd said no because it was part of the kit. It was a bit of a surprise to see another one in there, but a nice one, and I couldn't bring myself to say no. I love the look of bubinga wood and the grain on the outer ply is amazing.
A great looking, fat sounding drum which is nice and versatile too.
