This S.L.P. Mod Bubinga “Artist Model” is a special collaboration with Clay Aeschliman of Polyphia. Based on the regular LBU127, this version features an EVANS® Genera HD Dry batter head for a tight and fat sound with a custom Galactic Purple finish, perfectly complementing Clay’s sound & style. In higher tunings, the smaller 12” diameter shell delivers a full & strong sound thanks to Bubinga and its unique 7” depth.
6.0mm, 9ply Bubinga Shell - Bubinga, a hard wood native to Africa, is characterized by its dark and powerful sound with rich mid-low tones. Sound Arc Hoops solidly control the moderate harmonics, which enhancing the thick attack of the Bubinga shell.
The Genera Dry Evans Head is a thicker single ply head with biult-in ring mute that retains the open sound of a single ply head with added tightness from the ring mute, perfectly complementing Bubinga's unique mid-low range. Starclassic snares offer several unique, highly useful features. When adding more tension to the wires, the strands press closer to the snare head. We've also redesigned the angle of the end plates and added thinner straps to obtain optimum response.
