The Panther kit is constructed from steam-bent East Indian Rosewood shells, incorporating Purpleheart and Curly Maple inlays for both structural detail and visual contrast. The steam-bent shell construction contributes to a focused, resonant response with strong projection and tonal definition.

The bass has custom Curly Maple hoops featuring integrated Purpleheart inlays.

Configuration:
20×14 bass drum
14×14 floor tom
13×9 tom
14×5.5 snare drum

East Indian Rosewood produces a complex tonal palette with pronounced low-end depth, strong fundamental pitch, controlled overtones, and articulate attack.

Crimson Way is a 13” × 7.5” stave snare crafted from rich Redheart, accented with Royal Ebony and Maple. Built for both character and versatility, this shell is designed to deliver a powerful, expressive voice across a wide tuning range.

This is a rare, all-Mahogany HolloCore. It features Mahogany bearing edges rather than the standard Maple, giving it an even warmer, punchier, and fatter sound.

The space between the Walnut inlays contains a hollow void created by the thin interior and exterior shell walls. No hardware comes into contact with the hollow space, allowing the shell to resonate freely.

More information about HolloCores is available at https://docsweeneydrums.com/hollocore

It’s ready to be yours. Contact us.
