Rosewood gives a warm, focused tone with controlled overtones and a clear, articulate attack. Red cedar is lighter and softer, with a warm, open voice and a quick response that many players find easy on the hands. Mulberry, here in a black finish, leans toward warm sustain with a rounder low end. All three carry the same natural goatskin head, which responds dynamically from thundering bass to crisp rim shots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rb-callout\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhich shell suits you:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rosewood for articulation and cut, cedar for a lighter drum with a warm open voice, mulberry for the deepest sustain.
