Supreme Vintage Sound by State-of-the-art Technology
In recent years. a return to vintage musical instruments is a universal tide in all genre of music. To respond to this tend. CANOPUS presents our NEO-Vintage series. We have thoroughly studied the construction and tone of vintage drums and revitalized them with our contemporary technique.
Our shell design for the M1 is a result of analyzing the drum sound that dominated the jazz world in the 1960’s. Our shell construction consists of maple and poplar in 7 ply (for TT/FT) and 10 ply (for BD). Our snare drums utilize the same 7 ply maple and poplar combination, but with a customized layout for the NV60-M1 snare drum.
In addition to using vintage bearing edges as a guide for our own unique design, we have adopted die-cast hoops as standard equipment on our floor toms and tom toms.
The core of the drum sound comes to life in high pitched tuning, and totally eliminates the differences and instabilities that have traditionally hampered the sound of vintage instruments. |
