The Laker Series
The Laker series captures the tones that shaped music throughout the 50’s and early 60’s. These shells are comprised of African Mahogany with a Poplar core which makes for an incredibly balanced sound. The Mahogany gives a rich, smooth low end with the Poplar taming the ultra-low frequencies, allowing the Mahogany’s best qualities to shine. This is a much softer, quieter wood that will become more lively and fat as you dig in to the drums.
