A Shell Designed to Sing in the Studio, and on Stage, the DW Collector's Maple VLT 333 4-Piece 22-Inch Shell Pack - Broken GlassThe most popular wood for drum making, maple is a hardwood that produces maximum resonance, projection, and attack. Combined with reinforcement hoops, it can produce a more focused sound and is well-suited for live and studio applications. North American Maple shells Chrome hardware DW TrueHoops DW STM tom mounts DW TruePitch 50 tension rods About 333 ShellsAlterations in grain direction greatly influence the sound. In a VLT shell, the outermost and innermost plies run vertically, rather than a traditionally horizontal configuration. The vertical grain places less tension on the shell, thus allowing it to vibrate more freely, resulting in a lower fundamental pitch. This 9-ply VLT evolution also has no reinforcement hoops and produces a lower overall tone while still maintaining maximum resonance and attack. 333 shells are available only in Collector's Series
