All-Poplar Shells Resonate With Warmth
The all-poplar shells give the BackBeat Elite set a warm, resonant tone across the full tonal spectrum. Poplar is a dense, hardwood that provides an ideal combination of depth, sustain and clarity. The shells are precision-crafted to Ludwig's exacting standards, ensuring superb tone, tuning and durability.
45-Degree Bearing Edges Enable Smooth Tuning
The 45-degree bearing edges on each drum allow for smooth, precise tuning and enhanced shell resonance. The sharp edge helps the drum heads seat firmly against the shells, enabling accurate tuning and a clear, resonant tone. The bearing edges are cut to exacting angles for the best possible tuning and tonal results.
