My first impression of playing a Canopus set was "finally someone is getting it right!" As a huge fan and owner of vintage drums I had yet to find a contemporary manufacturer approaching those standards of quality, detail, and simplicity. Canopus is the first and in my opinion only company bringing a classic approach to drum making into the 21st century. They have acheived harmony between time-honored workmanship and modern technology. I am honored to be associated with Canopus, its products employees, and its commitment to making instruments of the absolutely highest quality. |
