A: We continue to learn from our US-based, industrial veteran associate’s long experience and historical knowledge regarding the acoustic properties of Mahogany. With his help, we are able to utilize different wood grades and species for a logical mix of shell materials to benefit all drummers. KZ KINGZBEAT selectively combines US maple, Siberian Maple, Birch, Mahogany and Poplar wood to create the balanced acoustic drum sound to meet all drummer’s criteria and performance needs.
