- the drums really don't sound very good and I think it has more to do with the recording than the drums.
I'm not saying anything against these drums, but I do know that just cause they are pretty doesn't make the sound. There is a guy here in Oregon that carves the most beautiful congas from solid logs of exotic woods like maple and walnut. The fellow has studied physics and has strong opinions on bearing edge design and the shape of the surfaces inside ther drum. Unfortunately, his drums sound very dead, in my opinion the worst I've ever heard.
