WATERFALL BUBINGA - 10 ply // 4.9mm
Waterfall Bubinga is a stunning choice for a drum shell because it produces a warm, rich, and punchy tone with a good balance of mid and high frequencies, a full low-end, and a distinctive visual appearance due to its unique wave grain pattern. This makes it a great choice for heavier music genres like rock and metal while still maintaining musical character, essentially offering both sonic quality and aesthetic appeal. Waterfall Bubinga has similar density to other high-quality drum woods like Rosewood, providing good resonance and projection. All Bubinga shell with a Waterfall outer veneer.
