- s Professional Series bass and tenor drums have been the only choice for six times World Drumming Champions St. Laurence OToole Pipe Band. At the heart of the drum lies a truly free-floating shell that helps to create a natural open sound across all sizes. As weather conditions change during competition each drummer can quickly re-tune their instrument thanks to the innovative turnbuckle tensioning system. Each drum has a resonance like no other and is truly the choice of champions. - Stephen Creighton (St. Laurence OToole Pipe Band) The Premier Marching Professional Series bass drum is warm but also has great depth and projection. It is very easy to tune accurately and provides excellent stability for the overall band ensemble sound. - Mick ONeill (Police Scotland Fife Pipe Band) As a member of Stephen Creightons championship winning St. Laurence OToole drum corps I have been playing the Premier Professional Series bass drum for the last 20 years. It is an excellent drum to work with and has a simple approach to achieving a great sound. The turnbuckle system is easy to work with giving you a great resonating sound that works brilliantly with the drum corps and also enhances the full ensemble sound. - John Dunne (Bass drummer St. Laurence OToole Pipe Band) Specifications Shell Construction: Birch Shell Ply: 5-ply Shell Thickness: 4mm Bearing Edge: 45 degrees Shell Diameter: Standard Reinforcing Ring: 6 ply / 4.8mm Lugs: Turnbuckle Internal Finish: Clear Sealant Drumheads: White Dampening System: Foam Dampers Hoops: Wooden Shell Finish: Ebony Black Lacquer Hardware Finish: Silver Powder Coat Carry Hook / Eyes: Carry Eyes (3) Our legacy your future.
