Send us a textSome truly exciting news! My new Craviotto drums arrived, so I did an unboxing. Well, a reenactment of my unboxing! Also, a short demo of the drums. Ignore the playing, and dig the SOUND of the drums. The drums are wide open, except for the bass drum, which has an EQ Pad inside. I used a Shure MV7 through my Zoom P8 mixer to record them, so the drums are completely flat with no EQ. You're hearing the true sound of the drums. And honestly, they sound much better in person than they do in the recording.
