ParaSonic combines two of the most popular woods for manufacturing high-end drums: Maple and Birch. We use the natural characteristics of each wood to create a tailored sound for each drum.
Maple has a naturally longer sustain with a lower fundamental note while Birch has a slightly shorter sustain and brighter attack. The smaller drums use a blend of Maple and Birch combined with a slightly thicker shell to produce a brighter tone with a sharper attack. On the other hand, larger drums utilize 100% North American Sugar Maple shells combined with a slightly thinner shell to create the natural sustain and lower fundamental note for the size of drum. This is a perfect pairing of materials and shell thicknesses to create a tailored sound.
