Heritage Series
The Heritage Series is a modern shell that transcends the classic shells played throughout the late 40s, 50s and 60s. Our Heritage line is crafted with precision, our unique adhesives and advanced technology and utilizes the same iconic woods from the golden age of music. The result is a similar sound in a modern shell, which allows you to recreate your favorite vintage kits in a high-grade, premium construction wood combination.
MAHOGANY/LUAN - 7 py // 8.7mm
This Heritage Series is a modern 7-ply shell that transcends the classic 1960’s Japanese imported shells. Our Heritage line is crafted with precision, our unique adhesives and advanced technology and utilizes the same iconic woods from the golden age of music. The result is a similar sound in an extra thick shell, which allows you to recreate your favorite “Made in Japan” style vintage kits in a high-grade, premium construction wood combination.
Looking to add or replace a drum similar to the 60’s MIJ brands like Apollo, Kingston, Del Rey, Lyra, Lido, Stewart or Zim-Gar? These shells are it. They boast a thicker, softer species of Mahogany both inside and outside with a luan core in a classic 7 ply formula. These are perfect for using a vintage patterned wrap.

Products are cut according to the size indicated above, but are shipped raw to maintain affordable pricing for our customers. This also allows our customers to finish the product exactly as desired. Products may contain markings from the mill or slight amounts of glue from the manufacturing process, but can be easily removed prior to finishing.
We try very hard to eliminate any glue remnants. However, should you find any glue remnants on your Nordic product, it can be easily addressed during preparation, prior to finishing the product. To easily peel off the glue remnants, simply soak a small rag in acetone and place over the glue for about 10 mins.
It is important to always sand the product before finishing with paint, stain or clear coating. Start with 150 grit and gently sand the product a couple times. A final sanding can be done using 220 grit, but it is not recommended to go beyond 220 (the wood pores will close making it harder for stain to permeate). And finally, keep in mind that this is a natural product and will not always be perfectly uniform.
