Sounds Like: What might just be the best modern drums ever made! And maybe you need to hear them too. You'll be able to tell the difference right away!Here's a little info on the drums you may all ready know?Thanks for your interest in our Carbon Fiber Drums!Rocket Shells drums have some similarities to acrylic in that they are more consistent than wood and are water proof and ding resistant but carbon fiber takes drum shells to a whole new level of strength, sound, and quality, and customization...Carbon fiber was developed for use in aerospace where things need to be light, strong, and consistent. Rocket Shells has taken the stiffness and strength of carbon fiber ( produces sharp, penetrating sounds) and coupled it with an internal sound core (produces low end and warmth) to produce an extremely light shell which produces a very full sound with great attack and resonance.We have developed a system which produces a very consistently round shell which has the exact same pitch every time. No need for pitch matching or trying out several shells to see which one sounds the best.Our shells are also seamless, unlike acrylic, which helps them stay round. In fact, all shells and lugs are guaranteed not to warp, crack, delaminate or otherwise fail to perform under normal playing conditions FOR LIFE!Here's some info on colors and finishes.Colors:
All Rocket Shells drums come in a wide array of colors that reside below the surface of the finish.Our very unique Natural Black finish is due to the unusual look of the carbon fiber itself.Custom Colors start as simple as Opaque White, Black, Red, Blue, etc or if you have a color in mind tell me, we can most likely do it. From there you can choose a Transparent color in Green, Red, Blue, or Purple, which still allows the weave of the carbon fiber to show through with a tinted affect. And Sparkles can be added the Transparent Drum Colors.Leaf finish colors are opaque and sparkly. They are available in Red, Fuchsia, Purple, Blue, Blue-Green, Green, Mint, Silver, Lime, Gold, Champagne and Pink.In addition to these color options, Rocket Shells drums can be special ordered using any artwork, Pattern or fabric a drummer could want!Also, Rocket Shells Drums can be special ordered using any artwork, pattern, or fabric a drummer could want!The Rocket Shells logo is "sub-surface" underneath the finish: no worries concerning screws holding it on and rattling or peeling off.
All drums are finished with a clear epoxy, rendering the drum weatherproof, waterproof, and scratch resistant.I hope this helps you understand some of the benefits of our drum shells. If I can be of further assistance, Please do not hesitate to contact me.Best Regards, CaseySubject: ROCKIN COOL VIDEO - Our Drummers ROCK!
