The Craviotto Concert series includes traditional 5.5x14\" and 6.6 x14\" sizes with the depth, clarity and sensitivity that have made Craviotto one of the most respected names in the history of drum building.
In addition to their meticulously custom-crafted solid shells, each drum features an exclusive inlay, Diamond tube-lugs, heavy-gauge, triple-flanged, chrome-plated counterhoops and a versatile, reliable Trick GS007 throw-off.
The drums also come equipped with Remo Ambassador batter and Diplomat snare-side heads as well as Bill Platt\'s specially designed snare wires that incorporate an advanced configuration of cable, and wire strands.
According to Craviotto, these wires work together with the natural acoustics of the drum and its unique snare beds to deliver an unsurpassed level of sound and performance in a variety of classical and contemporary situations.
