  1. Colour: Surf Green
  • Modern design with traditional essence
  • 6-ply birch shells for unique sound
  • 30-degree bearing edges enhance response
  • Heavy-duty Q-type strainer for stability
  • Lightweight 1.6 mm hoop for open sound
  • Wide tuning range for versatile use
  • Snare depth of 8 inches for deep tone

The revamped modern design retains the traditional essence of the Recording Custom. In order to maximize the attenuating properties of the birch wood, the one-piece lug design ensures optimum sustain of the core sound producing a crisp, articulate tone.

The 6-ply, 6 mm 100% birch shells have a unique sonic characteristic that ensures each stroke speaks clearly. The 30-degree bearing edges deliver a sharp response and clear snare sensitivity across the dynamic range. The shells have a wide tuning range, respond well to different head choices and are easy to tune.

The heavy-duty Q-type strainer is robust and offers solid, stable and smooth operation along with adjustment and snare replacement.

This sturdy yet lightweight 1.6 mm hoop provides open sound, a wide tuning window and great backbeat feel.
