The Production
The Production
At SP Marching every process is hand done from start to finish maintaining a constant quality control. The use of only high end quality materials makes sure the instruments will be durable and weather resistant and the latest modern technology is used to create the base for every drum.
The Difference
The Difference
Our solid 3K Carbon Fiber shell lowers the weight and at the same time creates a steady sound as the shell does not lose its shape in any weather circumstances like other materials such as ply-wood or aluminium. Mounting all parts together with only stainless steel materials prevents oxidizing through weather changes whilst the Die-casted hardware makes the drums durable and reliable.
