The Willoughby Cocktail Drum


Willoughby Cocktail


This is the most responsive of the 3 I've built (24"x16" 24"x14" and this 17"x14") and has a very nice bass tone with good separation and no snare rattle with the kick. Also the carlton snare mechanism has given me the best sounding snare to date. The drum is a 6 ply Keller shell with the insides finished in a walnut stain. I've been using Evans G2 on the bottom, fiberskins on the top, no internal muffling. This drum was the first I used a Rims system on and it has made a difference especially in the bass drum resonance.
