Adrian Kirchler of of AK Drums had flown in all the way from Italy, to answer questions and be on hand to showcase the very limited hand-crafted, hand-engraved, nickel-over-brass snare drums of the Diamond Series.

Only 50 of the 5.5 x 14\" and 50 of the 6.5 x 14\" Diamond Series will be produced worldwide. Each drum will have its individual number engraved directly on the shell, under the Craviotto logo. Finished as nickel over brass, Craviotto’s signature diamond pattern is hand-engraved around the shell, then polished and buffed. Built with Johnny Craviotto’s trademark snare-bed and signature hardware, the Craviotto Diamond Series Snare Drum might become the diamond crown jewel of your drum collection.

Endorsing artists Matt Wilson, Ronnie Vannucci (The Killers), Matt Chamberlain (Tori Amos among many others) and Scott Amendola visited the Craviotto booth.
