Product Details

Masshoff Drums Wooden Series Limited!

The Masshoff drum set is highly innovative and has features that no other drum kit ever had! The kit is designed to give you as many set up and sound options as possible. The toms feature two different bearing edges with different steel hoops. One side has the typical vintage sound while the other has the "modern" sound with more overtones. You simply turn the drum around. The shells are made of 5-plies (6mm) with reinforcement rings. 12" Tom has 5 plies (6mm) of maple with a maple reinforcement rings. The 14&16 floor toms are 3 ply mahagony with 2 plies of maple to feature a lower sound while the bass drums have 5 plies of mahagony with maple reinforcement rings to get the lowest wood sound possible. All drums are made with new state of the art equipment and the shell quality is as good as it gets.

OPTIONAL Triple Headed Bass Drum!

The triple headed bass drum is the center of innovation (22x8 Adapter Bass Drum separately available!) The set up options and possible sound variations are crazy. The sound of the 3 headed drum (when tuned right!) fills out the whole room. Because of the 3 drum heads the tone is more dense and has a higher quality compared to a standard bass drum. Holes for micro cabels for internal miking are on the bottom of each bass drum shell. The bass drums can be also used seperately or as "timpani floor toms" or "gong drums".
