IN A WORD (OR TWO)

gile, fast, precise, light. Are we talking about the poplar root drum set on this page, or about Alice Pizzi, the Milanese drummer who plays for Paros Mecchanica? Both of course! When there’s a true understanding, the musician and the instrument reflect each other. She wanted an instrument that met her needs as a jazz drummer, and was also easy to transport (the drum set can be dismantled thanks to our magtrioska system) She also made a specific request: to dedicate it to her two beloved greyhounds. We …raced… to indulge her. The result is bursting with elegance: we’re proud of it.

NOTES & CURIOSITIES

Wood

This handmade drum set is made entirely of polar root, combined with light blue resin and greyhound shaped inlays. Gold hardware and throw-off with triple snare wires.

The Sound

This drum set is clearly designed to be at its best when used for acoustic and electric jazz: it’s highly responsive with an elegant tone, clear well-defined harmonics and bass presence that is above suspicion.
