The M5 is a breakthrough kit. Not because of a new technology or state-of-the-art innovation, but because it’s an all maple kit for an unheard-of price tag. So, why is maple the preferred material for drum making? Because of its inherent sonic qualities. Maple sounds warm, yet punchy, it projects and has pleasing tonal qualities that make it very musical. Drum manufacturers have been singing maple’s praises for decades, but it was only available to a select few. Now, every drummer can enjoy the sweet sound of maple and look good doing it. M5 five-piece kits include F.A.S.T™-sized 8x10" and 9x12" rack toms, 12x14" floor tom with legs, 18x22" kick drum and matching 5x14" snare drum.
