Wood hoops are now an option on all toms, series
II snares, and bass drums up to 20", also all nesting penguin kits.
The hoops are made of laminated maple and have countersunk holes for the
tension rods (no claws).
Sonically the wood hoops impart an even warmer tone to
the already warm penguin sound.
Cross-sticking and rim shots on the snare have
greater depth and body.
On the toms the wood gives you a much richer and
more, well, "woody" click when you play just on the hoop.
It's like having an extra instrument for every tom.
