Mapex Black Panther Collection Velvetone

Smooth sonics.

The Velvetone features a new Maple and Walnut shell formula. Rich, dark 3.4Mm Walnut plies act as a low-end buffer between warm interior and exterior Maple plies.

A specially selected 1:9 bearing edge allows the Remo® Ambassador suede drumheads to resonate fully. The result is a drum that can whisper when needed, but can also bark at a moment's notice.

To make sure the Velvetone is as appealing to the eye as it is to the ear, Mapex has finished the drums with an Italian Burl Maple veneer with a high gloss, Butter Burst lacquer. The Velvetone is exclusively for the player that can distinguish between simply good and truly extraordinary.
