• The warm sound and epic sustain that only maple shells can deliver
• 7-ply tom/kick shells and a 10-ply snare shell ensures maximum resonance and projection
• F.A.S.T. sized kit provides you with an even spread of tones and a wide tonal range

Maple shells are known far and wide for their warmth and richly resonant tone. This PDP Concept Maple drum kit fully embraces this natural quality of maple. When you play a PDP Concept Maple kit, you can expect the characteristically long and slow sustain only all-maple shells can provide.

You want serious projection? You got it! The PDP Concept Maple kit 7-ply tom and kick shells and the 10-ply snare shell are leaps and bounds beyond what you'd normally expect from such an affordable drum kit. The extra density these layered shells give you makes them extremely robust and responsive. Add to that a DW style STM (Suspension Tom Mount) system, and you know your Concept Maple drum kit will deliver tone any serious drummer will love.

When it comes to tonal diversity, you just can't knock the PDP Concept Maple's F.A.S.T. sized toms. These slightly shallower toms give you powerful attack and rapid decay, accentuating they individual tones. If you prefer the more melodic sound of modern tom tunings, then you'll love the Concept Maple's tom sound. Add to that PDP's True Pitch tension rods, and you've got a huge range of tone to choose from.
